What does the "-istan" mean in "Londonistan" then?
Don't know. I sleep about 4 hrs a night. Go to bed between 1:30 and 2, wake up before 6.
It doesn't: it's an Iranian term particular to that region of the world whose races are predominantly brown in colour and has become a shorthand for places where brown, predominantly but not exclusively, Muslims live. It has become a racial slur.
-stan - Wikipedia
Same with 'Eurabia'.
Don't see how it is a racial slur. Islam is not a race, it is a religion. What race are "brown coloured Muslims"?
The addition of -stan onto a place name means there are a lot of Muslims living there. There is no racial connotation involved. If you were to really stretch it I suppose it could be considered denigration of the Muslim religion, but that would be really stretching it. There are several countries ending in the -stan suffix, most notably Pakistan. Are they racial slurs?
Besides Pakistan, there is Uzbekistan, Kazakstan, Tajikistan, Kirgistan, and Kurdistan. So, in the American mind -stan for a Muslim predominate geographic area is much the same usage as Japantown, Chinatown, Little Saigon, or Little Manila.
And they're all predominantly brown people. Hence the racial overtones of it.
I see. Help me out here. So if Latino people use the term Londonistan, that is just them being racist?
Yes. Next
Just because someone wants something to be racist, just so they can have a strong criticism doesn't make it racist.
Everything a Republican does is racist. You obviously missed the memo.
Says the privileged white male...
I have decided to be a racist and white supremacist on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Not sure if my Ashkenazi Jewish blood disqualifies me though.

Depends on who's doing the labelling.
