@golden_ashen @mucking_foron "Orient" means "the east." It refers to the direction from which the sun appears to rise. So yeah, it does refer to a "region on earth."
@Pawfalcon It's not even remotely comparable to n*****. Even if it was, the term "oriental" would be offensive, not "orient." "Orient" just means "the east." It refers to the direction from which the sun rises.
People love getting offended. Nothing makes some people happier than when they can get angry over an imagined slight.
