I’m not looking for excuses to use words that I shouldn’t be using lol. Referring to my previous post on a similar topic (https://lemmygrad.ml/post/508144), say the term “Debian” was used metaphorically, such as describing someone or something as “Debian”. That would often come across as bigoted. Now, I’m not denying that it’s bigoted, I’m just wondering why.
You need to be more specific, because it sounds like you are looking for excuses to use words you probably shouldn’t be using.

Debian is a variant of Linux. What other use have you found, because now I am curious.
I just used a placeholder in this post to avoid using any actual terms that could be construed as offensive.
