The 'N' word because I'm not allowed to say it in full on here!




She calls her brother by that word twice!

Why isn't there outrage when black people use that word with each other, yet everyone goes into meltdown when any other race of people use it?!





I'm Deckard B26354, I retire Wokies, I'm filed and monitored.

I think if you tell us YOU are black, you can use it all you want here in this forum. Right? RIGHT???

reply




ROFLMAO. Now there's an idea!

reply

Isn't excluding a race from doing something called being 'racist'??

Then again, the dictionary changes so fast everyday now, I'm not keeping up.

reply

Just like gender identity.

reply

Just tell us you identify as one.

Apparently race, just as gender, is a social construct.

reply

ah I forgot that. I some in me based on some company swab so I can now say what I feel like saying

reply

No. Gender is fluid. Race is exact. People even bitched when they used the wrong type of Puerto Ricans in the movie Into the Heights. And that loser Lin-Manuel Miranda actually apologized for it.

reply

No, gender is NOT fluid. Whoever told you that just lied to you. It's just a bullshit. Gender is sex and fixed at birth. You cannot change it. You can PRETEND to be a different gender but sorry, you're only pretending.

Your leftists idiots argued that race is a social construct and so is fluid as well.

you've been educated, you ignorant fool.



reply

I’m being sarcastic. I know it isn’t fluid.

reply

Lol. If gender is fluid so is race. Most males and females are masc and fem. Most blacks and whites can be differentiated. Are there “bubble cases?” Of course.

The same reason I can call my brother an idiot & he can call me an idiot, but you can't.

Same reason women can call themselves bitches & gays can call themselves punks.

It's not really that hard to understand.

reply



You idiot, I can call you and your brother idiots, and I can call women bitches, and I can call gays punks (that's a new one on me btw!), but woe betide me calling blacks the Nnnnnnnnn word without the lefties and wokies of the social media world going into meltdown.

It's not really that hard to understand.



reply

HE NAILED IT WITH THE ONE SMALL CAVEAT THAT THE N WORD WAS BORN OUT OF A SPECIAL I OWN YOU LIKE PROPERTY KIND OF HATE...SO IT CARRIES EXTRA WEIGHT...BY THE WAY...DON'T CALL WOMEN BITCHES OR CALL GAYS PUNKS...YOU WILL GET SLAPPED AND PUNCHED AND DISLIKED VERY HEAVILY.

reply

knuckle draggers

reply

You can definitely NOT call me or my brother idiots, or we'd kick your ass.

THAT's my point.

reply

So can I call my brother the N word??

reply

If y'all are Black, sure.

reply

Punks? Are you 85?

Guys call themselves bitches too.

reply

I'll never understand why mods won't allow use of the word 'nigger' if it's used within context and not in a pejorative way. By that I mean if the movie even mentions it, why not talk about it? It's not like it was magically conjured out from nowhere. Personally everyone should stop using it else others non-black will continue using it. People learn words you know. Using a word for the world audience then demanding they can't use it has a form of censorship aspect to it which makes people want to use it because it has become taboo and when something becomes taboo or driven underground, well, you know what I mean.

reply

I can use the word nigger as much as I want in my country, and I am white. I actually learned it from black movies lol. I dont use it because I dont like it.
Now, with americans, brits, basically all colonial empires, its a different story. If their ancestors kidnap black people from Africa, theres gonna be a problem there thats not gonna go away so soon.

reply

When a black person says it to another black person, there's no misinterpretation that the black person is using it to criticize the other black person's race.

If a white person says it to a black person, the black person can't know for sure why the white person is using it.

Whenever a white person is asked why they want to use it, it's always the same "because black people get to use it." That's not an answer.

reply

"When a black person says it to another black person, there's no misinterpretation that the black person is using it to criticize the other black person's race."

Actually it is a reference to the race and usually in a negative way!!

Remember this?

Things have changed since 1996.

Nowadays black people call white guys the n word.

reply

whaaat??? you are telling me, no blacks use the n word as a NEGATIVE? I've never heard them NOT say it meaning it negative. Maybe as a joke on occasion, yet still, part of the joke is the negativity.
I'm not black so I CAN'T know, I suppose, but my black friends ALWAYS say it to each other as a negative.
Maybe there are hidden laws or rules for expected class levels of use, I don't know.

reply

Show me where I wrote they don't use it in a negative way.

I clearly said they don't use it in a racial way.

As I wrote above, black people will refer to white guys as the n word, and yes, sometimes as a negative, but not as a criticism of the white race.

reply

not even worth talking about. they can keep using the N word - sort of repressing themselves by choice I guess.... fine. whatever.

here's what language means:

nig·ger
/ˈniɡər/
noun OFFENSIVE
a contemptuous term for a black or dark-skinned person.

reply

That's the -er version of the word that white grievers want to be able to use, but don't understand it's not the same word as the -a version that black people use.

reply

There's no difference, that's a cop out horseshit answer and everyone knows it.

reply

There's no difference if you're ignorant. If you actually care enough to pay attention, there's a very large difference.

reply

For the same reason that I can open-mouth kiss my wife with tongue action and you cannot. It really isn't that complicated.

What amazes me is that there are more than 170,000 words in the English dictionary and you're allowed to use almost all of them. Yet you choose to complain about being restricted from using one word, a word that has a history of oppression and causes pain, a word that doesn't enrich your vocabulary. That's worse than having a bowl of rice and complaining that you cannot eat one of the rice grains.

Some things are worth fighting for. This is not one of them.

reply

Yeah, but I can kiss my wife. Still not allowed to use the word to call a white friend like that …

reply

Keep in mind not all black people allow other black people to call them the n word.

reply

You seriously don't understand why? That's probably also why your tag is talking about "retiring wokies" when the authors of the pop culture material that you reference were woke and pushed a woke theme.
