Is it OK to refer to black people as negros?


Asking for my friend Joe.

reply

The only reason it’s considered “offensive” is because thems the flavor of the week rules.

Should we now consider “The United Negro College Fund” rrrrrrrrrrracist!?

reply

I'll rephrase. Is it OK for white people to refer to black people as negros?

I'm not the one changing the meaning of words and deciding what's racist.

reply

Biden never stopped referring to them as “well spoken negro boy”. His nickname for Obama.

Biden’s always been a racist sack of shit. He’s a Democrat. That’s what they do.

My response wasn’t an attack on you, just illustrating the point of why the bar keeps moving regarding which terms are considered “rrrrrrrrracist”. It’s a way for unaccomplished losers to try to empower themselves.

Ask the National Association of Colored People.

If you are a Dem,yes

probably , but its so dated , it will make you look like a moron

reply

Better not say it whilst I'm being recorded and addressing at least 7 people then lol.

reply

I do think it sounds condescending and old fashioned. I usually call people by their first names. If I don't know their first names, I don't talk about them at all.

reply

No, Al Sharpton outlawed that word, too. He doesn't mind being called Black. The word must be capitalized to show respect, the kind of respect black people show everyone else in the world.

reply

This whole capitalization thing does make me laugh. You can guarantee any writer that capitalizes the b in black when referring to black people will absolutely not capitalize the w in white when referring to white people.

Just come out and say it, you're a racist. (not you trevorh321) Whatever writer that does this.

reply

If they are Republican yes, but if they learn their place and toe the libtard agenda then it’s offensive
