Insults such as "Indian," "brown," or "unhygienic" directed against players upon their defeat move beyond the realm of trash talk and become an attack based on their identities. Such statements stereotype real people, fostering discrimination and racism that alienates individuals from the community. Competitive gaming is most effective when the focus remains on the ability to play, and not personal attacks on someone’s race or ethnicity. Given its damaging effects and the promotion of discrimination, such an insult must be viewed no differently than other forms of hate speech and prohibited
Correction- word indian should not be banned but the words following it like Indian dirty unhygienic s and like dirty food should be
As an Indian I have faced numerous times racist remarks about my country my food my ethnicity foul odor poppy skinned etc Even if you go the discord server you can see numerous times indians being misrepresented as always being dirty unhygienic etc I know just by the word indian can be interpreted in many diffrent ways but the overall using of it to post racist remarks( that could be shown to moderator for full proof for example saying Indian brown skinned and not showering should be at least able to get the person muted or warned for his remarks)
