n**? if black people don't stop saying it then anyone can say it. it's not racist. If you are racist it won't matter if a you say a word or not, being racist doesn't depend on what words you use or don't use, it depends on what you feel, hating someone based on race is racist wether you say it or not is irrelevant, it is what it is. If i never want anyone to call me fat then i won't use the word myself. any n** that uses the word n** deserves to be called a n**. if you're black and you don't use the world and don't like people calling you that, then nobody should call you that! that's how it is. If you dont' like it don't do it. TA DA. simple.
wow gag is ridiculous it put little stars for my N> IG GER word. Pathetic.
reminds me of fandom. i wrote that movie sucks, but when i clicked send it changed "that movie *ucks". looks like i wrote something else.
no more logins to fandom. join my boycott?
no but it awkward to hear that word enough times in conversation lips sealed
in what context?
I think it's a negative word, insult, possibly wrong or irrelevant. not sure about racist. It denotes behavior possibly culture, not color. It has low energy to it... oppression.
In certain context, rarely, it may be helpful.
Not that much different than calling someone white trash, slip monkey, yoyo, etc.. It's just words that can be offensive, funny, derogatory, etc... depending upon usage.
BLAAAACCKKKKK!!! similar meaning, different context.
WIIIIEHHHHHTTTTTTTT!!! whatever...
you do what you want...
In Latin niger means black, dark, etc. N! gger is just the 16th century spelling in English. There is nothing racist about describing a human as Black based on their physical appearance. That makes no judgement about their character or ability and has nothing to do with an inferiority or superiority among races. It's a descriptor like redhead or blue eyes. Black people just hate themselves, so they get pissed off when someone notices that they are Black.
It's crazy that Black people haven't figured this shit out yet. Latin has been around since what the 7th century and we're in the 21 century now. There were free public libraries for Blacks in the USA all the way back in 1905. Blacks have had access to the internet for decades to look shit up. Yet they still can't figure this shit out... It's insane. You know, elementary school students often study Latin right? Are White elementary school students really that far ahead of Black intellectuals? Put in some effort...
one guy explained "my skin is brown, that black car is black i am not black."

Well you ain't black so yeah
I have no clue whether it's appropriate or not anymore... hear it all the time in song lyrics and I've heard it on the street from one black person to another.
It's one of those words that seems to be okay for some people to say and not others.
It confuses the hell out of me.
No it is not, racism is denying black people access to the same services as white people or providing a lesser service. Racism is not employing someone because they are black, or not promoting them for the same reason or paying them a lower wage. Racism is giving someone black a longer jail sentence because they are black.
It is worth noting that so may songs sung by black people use the N word.
correct because action is the problem. but getting angry about a word is bad anger and too judgey
It is not racist for anyone to say it. It is just some meaningless word.
Only if someone says it with malice in there heart and they are calling someone that as a way to cut them down, belittle them, attack them by using it as a slur.
If that is not what is happening then it is not racist.
but those intentions and thoughts are not known and people will accuse "you meant a slur" so only bad if in a negative sentence.
Not racist, but not a very positive example or role model. Either it’s a trigger word that should be relegated to its historical context or it’s not. Bitch is similar. Women and gay men get to use it, but I can’t, except as a verb, but even that’s cringe. I’m not sure I like the trend of of only certain people get to use certain words. I get it, but don’t like it. I’d like to get to a place where everyone can communicate openly about everything.
such rules "only certain people get to use certain words" violated the principle of equality.
Of course not. It is just a word; one of 50,000 or other words in the English language. However, for fifty years Americans have been indoctrinated and lied to by the government, schools, corporations and social media such a Girls Ask Guy that saying the word is racist. It is no more racist than any other negative word such as hoe, bitch, SOB, simp, or nerd.
Not American so that concept is a bit weird to me. Black people are mad when people of other skin color say n** but then use it on themselves? If you want to ban a word from ever beeing used shouldn't you be completly against the usuage of it?
like that famous jacky chan film.
oh and the joke about African-british, doesn't exist only u. s. is that stupid.
I am %100 percent sure you are not black, so no.
I just had that feeling.
I have superpowers. My nipples can feel BBC when I see one🤣🤣🤣
i could be. it depends on how you use it. the context in which you use it. really the word doesn't make a person racist. it's the user of the word that makes whether its use is racist or not.
Hm, ill-advised, and it depends on context.
Easier just to not, so you don't give wannabe gangsta white people the idea they can say it because you're chill with it.
it is, unfortunately. proof it is not insult is the use in songs
it shouldn't be bad for anyone to say, because no insult as above.
I don't see how if blacks call each other that constantly!
You're not black , so you are option A lolol
It is not only not racist but it is racist for anyone who has never been black to criticize you for using the term since they do not share in the black experience.
equally wrong to "criticize you for using the term" if white because we need to stop being so judgy.
@strateguy632 I identify as Pacific Islander. Is that white?
Is it racist if I say the N word? I am white.
ask better questions
Why are you this bored
It’s just as racist as saying cis
No black people can say it other races can't
what about equal rights?
Neighbour? No.
