minus-squaremichaelmelanson@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoThe Wikipedia article says it’s derived from the term “rice burner” and talks about the history of the term. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_burner I can say I first heard the term about 20 years ago about cars with unnecessary decals and accessories, and it definitely had a racist connotation then. I certainly wouldn’t use the term myself and I cringe when people use it here.
