What is a "pon"?
I watched a movie and in one scene a man said to another that he is a pon.
I can't find a translation for it.
It is from the movie series “The man in the high castle“.

It is possible that the man said that the other was a "pawn". This is an expression based upon one of the pieces in a game of chess. He is saying that the man is of little value and is being manipulated for the advantage of others.

It could be a "pom" which is an Australian term for a person from England.

Which movie? It is a slang term, therefore the definition may well be governed by the geographic location.
