First it was mountains, then beaches, then it was trees now fish are racist.

And “Africa” is what the Romans called the area around Carthage if I recall correctly. So Africa is a Whitey Word.

I’m a sensitive soul. I wouldn’t want to upset an Asian somewhere. I’ll just call them slope head carp.

It would be interesting to know who is sitting around in darkened basements scouring texts to find and deem all of these “racist” issues. It might be nice if they disappeared.

Goodbye black bears. Especially if a white hiker gets attacked by one. Guess those won’t be reported.

Call it the chi-com carp.

And what about the
cod! What could be more antifemministicly masculo-oppressive?
And the tarpon! Sounds too much like Tampax!
Not to mention the snapper!
And it's not just fish! The oceans abound with racism...or whatever!
How about the crab! Demeaning to grouchy people!
Shrimp! Demeaning to...well, you know...little shrimps!
And don't forget the rainbow trout!! Think what that name does to the LBTQetc.'s! Right into PDSD!
Oh the horror!

“We wanted to move away from any terms that cast Asian culture and people in a negative light,”
By confusing people with carp?

Asia is a location. Asian means things coming from Asia. Asian is not a race or ethnicity. So lighten up Francis.
