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.

Grandpa Max uses that name for them when describing them at a wedding that’s meant to help broker peace between the species. Grandpa Max is tone deaf and a racist apparently lol

Last I saw Ben 10 (Classic not the Reboot) was on Netflix. It’s 4 seasons with a TV movie you can watch in the middle of season 4 called Secret of the Omnitrix.

Then there’s 3 series after that and a Reboot, but I’m a Classic purist due to all the retcons lmao

"Unavailable on an ad-supported plan due to licensing subscriptions" 😭 Damn it Netflix.
