Evidence

Negro, Italian, Jew, Catholic, Irish-American, French-Canadian may have emotional tone … But they all have their higher key equivalents: nigger, wop, kike, papist, harp, cannuck. When these labels are employed we can be almost certain that the speaker intends not only to characterize the person’s membership but also to disparage and reject him” (p. 181, italics in original). Ethnophaulisms are employed for illustrative purposes in 14, or about half, of his 31 chapters. On average, Allport (1954/1979) covers no more than 11 pages between uses of ethnophaulisms to illustrate some element of prejudice. — , Rudman, Laurie A - On the Nature of…, 1258 (#expands, via linked claim)
