the n-word hasn't had its meaning completely changed lmao. idk where ur from but i've heard/seen firsthand white people saying the n-word (hard r and otherwise) about black people in an extremely hateful way plenty of times. it's still extremely ingrained in the vocabulary of anti-black racism.
also, reclaiming a word doesn't mean that it's being offered up as fair game for everyone; it means that the group who has been the target of said slur is removing the power from the people who do use it in a derogatory fashion. so..... if ur not black u really shouldn't say the n-word/try to change its meaning. that's not ur place and just comes off as tone-deaf and offensive.
Imo words with a history of discrimination shoukd be blanket banned and there should be a lot of discretion if they are said like faag or chink, but the n word has had its meaning changed to something different and its better if everyone is allowed to use it and u complete the change of the words meaning, that way theres no offence to the word at all ever, if youre just gonna let some people say it theres always gonna be a divide and peoplr will argue this forever
Honestly, let's make panels for all of the most common issues, like hipfiring, meteor play, what is and isn't HC, and why laurierose thought was a bad word
fr tho, the fact that Kendrick Lamar kicked that girl off the stage is some real biiitch ..if he is going to be a little biiiitch about the word, dont put it in your music.. he aint even a good rapper
I didn’t mean u were a coon per se; it was just very coonish Logic
Over here that just isn’t a thing we do.
I’d say as long as your friends know it’s not the best idea to approach random black people in the street and call them a ngga with friendly intent it doesn’t really matter what policies y’all have together
You just called me a coon. Why? Come on, I'm not even being harsh and you're calling me names.
I already said that I understand if it offends other people. I only gave my personal opinion.
I personally don't mind when a white person says "n*gga" in a friendly way because I grew up and still live in a city where it's almost half and half white and black/african, and over here everyone kinda became one culture, from Haiti, to Kenya, to Russia, and 5th generation white America. We all use the same words and pretty much act the same.
I know it's different in other areas, but this is how I live.
