I’ve run across these terms several times, but without enough context to figure out what they mean. Could someone help me out, please?

ETA All of you are amazing! A huge thank you to everyone who responded, and an extra thank you to those who have provided links or explanations to further and/or related information. I am learning so much by reading all of these comments!

      But y’know, if someone walks up and makes disparaging racist remarks about how they don’t like your kind, following them round and demanding they explain themselves out loud is about the most appropriate response that exists.

        I mean, yeah, if they’re racist.

        But just because the comic picked a sea lion doesn’t mean it’s about race… It’s just an easy way to identify a group of things.

        It could be “people who kiss their grown children on the mouth” or “people who smoke crack 5 times a day”.

        It’s any group of people.
