That is, racial slurs applied to the races of Eve Online and Dust 514 (Gallente, Caldari, Minmatar, Amarr). Do they exist? If so, what are they?
And I am just asking out of curiosity, I am not a racist, one of my best friends is Minmatar. |

I think some have come about over the years. Amarr tend to be called slavers, religious nuts, god thumpers, etc...Minmatar tend to be called mud children, heretics ( generally used for any non-believers, used especially for those Sani Sabik trash), trash collectors, I've even heard junkyard drivers in terms of ships. Caldari..penny pinchers, corporate lackeys....Gallente.....liberals, abolitionists, drug pushers (generally used against Intaki). |

Racial slurs? Yeah. Definitely. But all of that is within the context of the game's storyline. Most players there don't take such comments seriously as they all know it's just for the sake of role play. |

My Minmatar pilot is proud her 'rust bucket'. It sings to me. Rust speaks. It creeps. |

In early faction war fleets we used to call the Amarr and Caldari pilots "squids" because when mixed they are the Calamari. Their response to this was calling the Gallente "frogs", probably because we're of french descent. Templar One also mentions that a slur for capsuleers is "eggers".
Those are all the ones I'm aware of. |

At least we Gallente don't run away like our ancestors did back on Earth. |

I did not know this relevance, but I will be using that for the rest of my life, thanks! |

There are plenty of racial jokes too, i.e.:
People call me a slaver. But really, I love Minmatar, I think everybody should own one. -- anonymous Amarrian
How many Caldari does it take to change a lightbulb?
None, its more cost effective to move to another room. |
