Serious inquiry.

If you would, tell me which names someone might use for “Indians” that you, and/or others you know, might find, would find, offensive.

Thanks

White liberals will decide what’s inappropriate, not Native Americans.

Honest answer. Indians are like any other color group. Some like me don’t care, others may find words like redskins offensive. Some may say we’re first Americans which I find a bunch of hooey. If you stick to Indian upon first meet and see what kind of people they are , you can branch out to other words.

Once upon a time when I was in army training at Fort Knox, we had to do land navigation in the woods. This one white guy says hey let’s follow (my last name), he’s good in the woods. Which was funny because I grew up in a desert area on the reservation. But we did alright and passed the course.

Apple is kind of offensive. But it is usually used by white libs and American Indians trying to offend.
