  I think ‘jeets’ means Indian from the contexts of other greentexts I’ve seen. But I’m not sure why

    it’s short for Pajeet, which is a somewhat common Indian first name. I associate it with UK racism more than US racism for some reason.

      That lines up. I’m in my fourth decade of life, always lived in the US, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen that word.

      Though I don’t make a habit out of socializing with racists, so I can’t rule out that some people here might use it.

  Windows is largely an Indian product, jeets is racist against Indians.
