It truly is a fascinating thought exercise that one word has that much power. There are way more offensive slurs out there. But I can honestly say, when I hear that word, I dont think of color. Just trashy piece of shit with no regard for the environment they exist in. It covers everybody. For the general public, the word has evolved to encompass everyone and anything. But some won't let it go. Like they insist on owning that particular slur.
Example: when we were kids, we had the corner store where we got the penny candy and comics and all that shit. When parents used to send their kids to go buy smokes for them. It was owned and operated by Indians. Parents always referred to the store a "swami's". A rare throwback slur indeed. But we did not know that. We called it the same thing. We loved that place and were in and out of there several times a day. We called them that to their faces because we thought that was what they were called. Childhood ignorance turned it Into a term of endearment. They are still there 30 plus years later. Pillars of the community. Now I buy my cigars off of them instead of candy. They have a sign up that says "The Swamis" behind the counter. Words can evolve and if dickheads can co-opt innocent things and make them racist (ie. nazis using Buddhist symbols for their logo) then the it can go the other way too. It just seems that when something goes from bad to good, certain people won't let the bad meaning be left behind. On the other side, God forbid you try to co-opt a currently racist symbol to represent something wholesome and unifying. I forget my point. Just be good to people and the rest takes care of itself I guess.
You cant say that the nword isnt the most offensive slur out there today, atleast in the USA where black and white have been having race issues since its beginning. You could maybe evolve a slur to being something wholesome but most times it does not
That's what I mean in regards to the exercise. It's a word, like any other combination of letters. Is it the most offensive to most? Probably. In the US at least. But not to all. What I'm saying is, in its inception it was targeted at a very specific group of people. It has moved on to be all encompassing. It has moved past race. But then you have to consider the position of the person hearing it and their perception. Two non black kids calling each other that word, are they really being racist? Really? Though someone over hearing might scream racism does not mean these kids are going home and throwing on white hoods. Think about times you have heard it in the wild. It is hard to articulate, but context, phonetic inflection and probably some other factors come into play too, but you damn well know when it's being flung as a racist slur whether you can define why or not. Just looking at it logically, academically, it's very interesting to think about everything that one word encompasses and produces. Even this conversation.
Sometimes it is used as a racist slur and sometimes it is not. It depends, but most times when someone says the nword they follow it up with more racism. I dont think they are being racist though, its usually just edgy middle schoolers. It is still used and understood as a racial slur.
I dont think the definition of this word will ever be changed since people will still be using it as a slur, so I also dont think it has moved past race
People have different ideas of what the nword means, you cant change the definition of what it meant originally and what it is used most often for, so when people get offended for being called the nword they see a completely different perspective from what you trying to claim it is
That's your take fam. I think insults are just words and only have the power the victim gives them. I choose not to be a victim in life I wish more would as well. Also let it be known I didnt downvote you because I'm not a petty bitch and you can have a different opinion then me you filthy cunt.
We both agree that words have power but we disagree on who or what gives the word power. Words gains power from the majority or the agreed upon definition by the majority. It doesnt matter whether they are victims or abusers. Victims also arent giving that word power, unless you consider getting banned and outcasted from most places power.
You shouldnt be afraid to use it but you should also be smart in understanding the nature of that word. You are no joke fighting for freedom of being able to say racist words when there are much more issues to be fighting about.
In any regards, I'm not offended by the infamous "N-WORD" any longer. It's a fairly accurate description as represented by the violence and murder conducted by this wide group of BLACK people who carry this once very offensive term and who are now widely known as supporters and members of the BLM BLACK Terrorist Group. Who do you want to blame for that? Roger Stone?
wait.... negro is a slur? shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit... someone should tell the united negro college fund that their organization has a racial epithet in its title
I suspected this immediately, all a little too perfect with the timing of the “bad connection”. These lefty lunatics got nothing... desperation is massive.
Also- even if something was said, It wasn’t “the N word”
I'm glad they're getting audio techs to analyze that shit. THAT has to be a really simple task for some experts. Makes sense as to why the radio host was also still friendly to Roger.
I ran a quick google search and found an open github repository for real-time voice cloning. It allows you to clone someone's voice with just 5 seconds of audio:
You know all that money BLM has received over the past few months? I wouldn't be surprised if they hired someone to use algorithms like this to create more racism hoaxes.
Get ready. We are about to see a lot more of this.
I wish he would sue and get them to admit they faked it. Then any other claim the left says has a lot less power. As he could bring up the time they did this.

I've never understood that fag has never meant gay to me it just meant stop being such a fag.

I already know the answer but are you black?
I am of a brown nature
Of brown nature lmfao. It's never black people that are actually offended. Gtfo you pussy faggot.

N-word Please

You can't squeeze racism from a Stone!
(r56-u17-ts674)
The word means IGNORANT so YES it is appropriate!
"negro" isn't the N word. As in, United Negro College Fund.
This goes higher than we thought
wait.... negro is a slur? shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit... someone should tell the united negro college fund that their organization has a racial epithet in its title
JUST SAYING
No, but when you say "he said the N-word" you don't have to explain it to the masses that will infer and never even listen for themselves.
I suspected this immediately, all a little too perfect with the timing of the “bad connection”. These lefty lunatics got nothing... desperation is massive.

Fake fucking news as usual.
That is Nuts!

Stone is too brilliant to have used that word especially on air. IMHO.
I wish he would sue and get them to admit they faked it. Then any other claim the left says has a lot less power. As he could bring up the time they did this.
Negro ain’t the n word. And smh why is stone lying over here. Just own up to it and move the fuck on.
