IT'S A FALSE AND MANIPULATIVE ASSUMPTION. I KNOW IT'S WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT. EVERYONE HERE ACTS LIKE ALL BLACK PEOPLE GO AROUND CALLING EVERYONE RACIST IF THE WORD IS UTTERED. READ MY WORDS AND LEAVE YOU ASSUMPTIONS AT THE DOOR KID.

If you're upset that some people automatically assume it's negative, that's a separate issue.
That's actually the ONLY issue I was ever talking about, and I have been stating that much repeatedly.
Quote:
It's wrong to always assume it's negative but don't be ignorant enough to think that some people wont become confused, uncomfortable or come with baggage causing them to assume negative meaning.
And in that particular case, if YOUR assumption that the n-word can be used in some circumstances is valid, I would expect them to chill the hell up when they're told it was not meant offensively.
P.S. The OP didn't. And that's how this thread got started.

It was YOUR assumption... one which I claimed had no merit. The OP was told to drop it, he didn't. Hence, in his eyes, either non-blacks can never use the word, or nobody can use the word at all. Hence, either he was being hypocritical or your assumption was wrong as far as the OP was concerned. DISCLAIMER : overly simplified argument to the point of borderline uselessness above. |

I love taboo words, its like telling someone not to think of polar bears. Or passing and amendment to a constitution making alcohol illegal. Or like that time that guy said something should be forbidden and then everyone wanted to do it. Are you seeing the pattern here? Are you seeing why making this a big deal ensures that it will continue to not go away?
Nah, never mind, forget it. I'm just being insensitive. |

mmm you've obviously NEVER MET BLACK PEOPLE if you think you can go around calling them ******... jackass
And this is the problem. The problem is those who throw the racist accusation out callously and those who stereotype all black people as doing the same thing. If you're approaching this discussion with that attitude, that's your fault. I've never once accused anyone here of being racist. Take note of that. |

Edited by: Syn Callibri on 21/08/2010 04:09:38I am offended by this thread dammit! I'm going to petition it for "stupidity, ignoance and cruelty to...to...to...well someone really important.  I wonder if people offended by the "N" word and feel that caucasians not getting upset by "cracker", "white-boy", "white bread sucka", "honky", "white-devil", etc...have ever figured out that instead of them not being equally offensive to caucasians...it just not as big a deal to them as the " N" word. <que dramatic music> I mean...Im Irish and believe me there are plenty of "offensive" names heaped on top of the fact that I'm caucasian, guess what... ITS NOT A BIG DEAL...GET OVER IT!This is the 21st century, and contrary to popular belief...no one who was owned nor anyone that owned them IS ALIVE...drop it already!  |

Africans were never oppressed in mexico like they were in America because all mexicans are mixed, so it's no wonder you don't understand truly understand our struggle. Show some pride, white people do it, so can we!! |

Now that you mention it, I am having difficulty imagining a word that describes "my race" (whatever you call generic white people) that I would find offensive (even mildly). Somebody, quick, refresh my memory ! |

Nah... he's building a bridge over it, some watchtowers and a nice cottage, taking residence, garrisoning the compound and charging a toll for by-passers. THAT'S WHAT WHITE PEOPLE DO !  |

Seriously you should look into the teachings of Clarence 13x, it really educated my mind and taught me SO much. I used to be self-hating and self destructive etc too, before I realized that we're all sacred man, we're all gods. Alot of young blacks struggle to find meaning and it's so sad when there's so much truth out there if you look for it!! @ Syn hmmm FORGOT SLAVERY!?!?! |

Slavery : NOT JUST for black people ? That reminds me... should I maybe feel threatened by the Turks then ? It's only been 200-ish years since then. Originally by: Johan Moisander

Hmm... sounds oddly familiar. "When you look long enough into an abyss, the abyss also looks into you." Only by giving up attachments to old grudges (like, for instance, former racist oppression) can you truly become liberated and be your own man ? And if you insist on holding on to those nasty threads of the past, you risk becoming yourself the oppressor in turn ? |

I am around 40, but I notice the younger crowd has a major bitter streak against "political correctness" for having it rammed down their throats so much.
Now when you get one of them started they go off an a rant that would make Michael Richards cringe.

So this is the new Threadnaught to replace the European Game Awards debacle. If we ever wanted CCP's attention, this is the thread that will be the one that pulls it off.
