Acceptable and Politically Correct Substitutions Of An Animal Species For Human Ethnic Groups

Sometimes, the Space Jew Or Animal Jew in later renditions in question is seen as more acceptable than the member of a real world human group in the original renditions. The most common examples of this are monkeys and tigers substituting for black people in a saying or work.

Examples:

  • Originally, the Eeny, Meeny, Miney, Moe saying mentioned a black person (refered to as a "nigger") being caught by his toe. The black person in question has been substituted by a tiger in modern renditions.
