I feel that annoyance. For example when people call middle-easterners "brown," happens even on lemmy, but I think it's used as more of a rhetoric device meaning "non-european" here so it's not as bad.

I use it as a blanket term for the people Republicans are afraid of.

They think they're all Muslims so they can't be white. Which is funny for many reasons but also was true for parts of Europe that weren't or were Catholic for a period of time.
