This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Horrendously racist term aside, I feel for this dude. I've logged into Microsoft's support forums more than a few times specifically to call out and report the mindless idiots who keep marking their own unhelpful comments as "solutions."

Help me, which term is racist?

I think 'jeets' means Indian from the contexts of other greentexts I've seen. But I'm not sure why

[–] uuldika@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 year ago (2 children)

it's short for Pajeet, which is a somewhat common Indian first name. I associate it with UK racism more than US racism for some reason.

That lines up. I'm in my fourth decade of life, always lived in the US, and this is the first time I've ever seen that word.

Though I don't make a habit out of socializing with racists, so I can't rule out that some people here might use it.

It means cowfucker in this context

Windows is largely an Indian product, jeets is racist against Indians.
