I guess SJW is now a slur word, lol.

I don't think about this stuff much. I see a person I treat them as individual as best as I can. If someone of a different race says they are offended by something I have said, I try to listen. Keep it simple. If someone of a different race doesn't like me that's fine. We can go our separate ways.

SJW was how they identified themselves, maybe not any more but that's because they ruined their own reputation with their extremism and vitriol more than anything else.

Re. cultural appropriation - I identify myself as an ethnic Terran, so my culture is Terran culture. It's not possible for me to actually appropriate another culture at the moment, because all known cultures are part of Terran culture.
