Well, it's only a real problem when it's repurposing words or expressions we already use into a particularly negative connotation. StealThisSheen posted... When people say stuff like "Whatever you say, Squanto," they're implying you're not worth being identified beyond your skin color/background/whatever and the generic name they've applied to those people. I agree. Hence why I said context is necessary. But to note that's not actually what Trump did, either. He didn't really go into why she at times was called Pocahontas just mentioned that she was-- which again, bad idea to even mention given where he was, but not necessarily "racist" per se since you don't know the reasoning why. --- No problem!
