Well, here's your chance to explain exactly what you did mean and why you used a poorly-defined term with a lot of baggage in attempt to attack the forum rather than engaging intellectually with the content. The innocent definition of the term isn't a pejorative and certainly doesn't have a meaning which would say it's okay to ignore something just because it ran in Foreign Policy.

Also, while you may have had purely innocent intentions note that your use of that term apparently made someone else feel safe calling me an anti-Jewish slur and telling me to kill myself: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29521708
