I maintain that calling them Redcaps, basically an especially spiteful and nasty kind of goblin, is the most fitting way to label them
Oho good one! I never made that connection until now π
Ferengi. They embody the ferengi from star Trek to me. Regardless, neither of ours works because they are nerdy references a good deal of them don't understand. They understand being called weird though, and it gets under their skin. That's the important bit. I wouldn't care if someone called me that, but it damn sure bothers them, so that's what they're called even though other words fit better, like rape apologists.
Quark could actually grow and learn though, these people seem incapable of that. Itβs unfair to Ferengi to compare them.
