1. Malays who proudly claim they're pure blooded Malay and see malayness as inseparable from Islamic identity although ironically Malay themselves were Hindus (which they conveniently forget) before the arrival of Muslim merchants at the local ports few hundred years ago.
2. Malays who posses an extremely radicalized view of what things should be and how to "behave" like a proper Muslim Malay (mostly when it comes to religious and social issues) and easily get butthurt whenever someone has slightly different opinion or go against their views.
3. Very loud and selective; would criticize you to oblivion but would suddenly be very merciful and sympathetic when it comes to their own people, even when said person is clearly in the wrong e.g. still follow and support convicted Malay religious preacher because "husnudzon"
4. Deep fear and aversion (usually because of fearmongering) of other minorities because they think their only purpose is to deny and threaten the so called "rights" of the Malays
5. Hates gays, trans, communists, liberals and more importantly, Jews.
6. Penunggang agama. Terpaling Melayu. Self explanatory.
Linguistically and symptomatically very similar to the redneck/cracker usage of Murica, except they're not White and Christian.

Commonly mistaken as a racial slur but is actually a correct way of referencing bigoted supremacist of Malay descent in Malaysia.
The phrase was coined and is used primarily by Malays and doesn't have the historical context of oppression present in actual racial slurs

Meleis are easily triggered and always turn to manufactured outrage when forced to face accountability

meleis is NOT a racial slur because it’s a term made up by malaysians to call other problematic malaysians. to sum it up, meleis = melayu bodoh
“meleis and their obsession with someone’s aurat is never going to end”
“meleis are quick to judge anything”

A slur that is used to downgrade Malaysian, mostly used towards close minded person. It’s basically usable for any Malaysian regardless of race but it is mostly used among the Malay community. It is like the N word for Malaysian. It is not particularly racist, it’s more to judging and downgrading someone who has different opinion.
Like the explanation, it is only usable for Malaysian. So if you see a close minded Singaporean, Indonesian or Bruneian, even if they’re Malay, they’re not categorized as “Meleis”.

Meleis is a racial slur created to downgrade and curse Malay people. A race that lives in southeast asia. Meleis used to refer to Malays in a demeaning tone. Anyone that uses meleis is a racist. This racial slur started being used on twitter and spread to other social media platforms such as tiktok. Meleis does not refer to Malaysian and unfortunately many people are unaware of it. Racist use Meleis as a substitute to Malays with hope that people will be unaware of racism that is happening. Stop racism! This racial slur has been in use since 2010 and maybe even earlier.
A racist always claims that racial slur needs a history but everyone knows that basic racism is when someone discriminates, prejudices and bad stereotyping a particular race. No history is needed for racism to happen.
If you are a Malay and using this racial slur, you are still a racist as internalized racism is happening. We should focus on the perpetrator's actions, not the perpetrator's race.

Meleis is a racial slur for Malaysian Malays ₍₁₎ which is frequently used by some Malays that are ashamed just simply for being Malay, the group mostly consists of teenage females & pick-me males (pick me boy). ₍₂₎
Some of them say 'meleis is not a racial slur its like karen but malaysian version' but since when did we call Malaysians Malays? They downgrade Malays that are not fluent in English, have the opposite opinion & that clashes with their political interest.
