Pajeet (Poojeet) is used to describe Indians and, by default, Hindus as street shitters, scammers, and unintelligent

• In particular observe [this quote] from Sudhakar at al. (2022), p.5:

"The term "pajeet" is an ethnic slur, coined as a derisive imitation of Indian names. Typically, pajeet is used to describe Indians on the Internet - and, by default - Hindus"

• In particular observe [this quote] from Sudhakar at al. (2022), p.9: "the idea that pajeets (Hindus) are dirty (streetshitter, poojeet), dishonest (scamming), and unintelligent (mong-a slang term on 4Chan for individuals who do idiotic or stupid actions without realization^27) We see an entire cluster in blue, dedicated to dehumanizing depictions such as "shitskinned," "subhuman," and "poon***r."

Here’s a thread from 4Lebs Ajit Pai reference https://archive.4plebs.org/pol/thread/153378330/ Amansx69 (talk) 08:28, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Yes he was. The term first started in reference to him (Ajit Pai) and he was mocked on reddit for over reaching FCC regulation on the internet. Pajeet is not based off of the Punjabi Language. Mark Stevens WikiEdit (talk) 22:22, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

There is a significant aspect to this article that isn't addressing the mass anti-Hindu connotations the word "Pajeet" has. The term is also often associated with 'cow worshipping' and is associated with attached imagery of an Indian drinking cow urine or bathing in cow excrement.
