Brits were called Limeys because British sailors used to eat limes to fend off scurvy it had nothing to do with race
Online Etymology Dictionary
This has been explained to them time and time again. You could explain that a black person who happens to be British could be called a 'Limey' (as archaic as it would sound) but a black person who happened to have say, Korean citizenship would never be called a 'gook.' They don't really care, because what they are really after is an excuse to 'play' at being racists while coyly claiming just the opposite.
In other words, they are fucking idiots.
