First I'll paste a comment I left about this recently:
Second, Chud and Hog do not root themselves in an actual slur in the same way that "clanker" and "wireback" do, which I always thought was pretty obvious.
Wireback I get, but “clanker” comes from a Star Wars cartoon and is closer to “clunker” which is old timey slang for a faulty machine. The only thing it has in common with the N word is an -er suffix, which is ubiquitous.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
