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

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.

Many GenZ think that this word is for generalising Malaysian Netizens that judge people online. But is infact not the case. For you see, no Malaysian Chinese or Malaysian Indian will ever get triggered if you say this to them. Gittew
Malay Thot A: These Meleis won't stop judging my skin tight outfit lor
