According to some people it appears to be even worse than that.

I have every respect for others, but your wilful refusal to engage in debate
beyond saying "wrong" and accusing people of insulting you is trying my
patience a bit. I think there is a fair bit of goodwill in this group on
this topic, despite the frustration, and if you went some way to explaining
why you find the term European insulting, people might accept it and get off
your back. Or, in your terms, not insult you by describing you as that
which you are not.

If they were calling you a paedophile, I could understand it.

Repeating yourself, particularly when lying, doesn't help.

Did I say that..? Something else you're wrong about then..!

It's an analogy, you seem to be fond of those. Work it out.

You don't have to understand. You just have to have some respect for
others.
