Salaam 🫡

They've emphasized for many years now that they don't use this term but it's so normalized that even some friends use it too which is sad. Everyone disrespects the Yemenis. Lots of Muslims and Arabs use the term and we shouldn't be using it either. Maybe racist isn't the right word. I dont know. Seems racist that they don't get respected enough to even be allowed to name themselves.
