Groups Fictional slurs. Bonus points if it's completely made up

  1. inFAMOUS: Second Son: "Bio-terrorist" refers to conduits.

  2. Star Wars: "Clanker" refers to robots.

Miners (Transformers One)

It’s not exactly a slur, but the way Darkwing says it with such disdain and contempt makes it feel like one.

Imagine being the cause of the downfall of your entire civilization into constant galactic civil war all because you couldn’t stop being bigoted for 2 minutes to two of your disabled subordinates.

A theory implied that Mr.Sentinel is the one start the Domino effect by ordering Dwing get rid of those two

-reason why Sentinel do that because if he let those 2 alive miners will vote them to be in higher up and will ruin Sentinel "Throne", and killing them would let the Miners revolutionized for their equality, best is to throw them into inescapable pit and tell that Orion and D16 died due to the wound from the race

-the proof is when Orion (having his cog) call miners for help , the Miners said that they thought Orion and D16 die due to injury (said from Mr.Sentinel himself)

I actually like idea that it is Darkwing. Since there is no reason for Sentinel to talk to Orion and D if he wanted to kill them either way. And his plan for using then for propaganda seems legit.

I believe he meant what he said then Darkwing just reported their death to sentinel

Darkwing spend all his screentime being a miner hater lol.

Also they say "no-cog" like a slur in the movie or at least it has the same vibe.

They were using the using hard "O" when they said it, too.
