Excuse me?
This motherfucker is so racist he invented a new term.
It’s 4chan speak, I’ve seen it before.
You need to hang out in better places.
It’s good to lurk and keep an eye on extremist spaces imho. Not good for the mental health, but helpful in intervening/deradicalizing teenagers following down those rabbit holes. Good to also prep counters and debunks to narratives before they take hold.
Like Reddit! /s
While I can understand his syntax, I fail to understand the substance of that sentence.
Now I'm curious how wealth can be utilized in a manner that pertains to African-Americans. Funding sickle cell anemia research?
I think he is basically saying "I think that black people are bad. I also think that some billionaires are bad, but it's #notallbillionaires . The innate badness that black people have and the bad billionaires have are the same, so I am going to call the bad billionaires black". In other words, racist bullshit
His "exceptions" are clearly the guy who can't get through a press conference without rolling on molly (and has dozens of illegitimate children) the guy who talks with a vocal fry and practices "concerned face" in the mirror because he thinks it fools people into thinking he isn't Patrick Bateman, and the guy who injects the blood of young people and gets stumped when the interviewer asks him if the human race should survive.
So guy 1 is Musk, and guy 3 is Thiel, but who is guy 2?

N*gga rich is a term used by racists, and co-opted by rappers, to mean getting a small fortune and spending it on flashy ostentatious things.
Oh you mean "new-rich"?
TIL...
I don't think that's a neologism. It's just the adjective to 'negro'.
Basically he thinks billionaires are 'behaving black'.
no, it's not even a word. that wouldn't even be the adjective to that word.
It is though.
You are right there though. I'm not a native English speaker and thought that would be it. (Sounds like if I'd try to build that adjective in my native language though).
that's not the word I'm talking about. I'm saying the supposed adjective is not a word. it's not your fault that you were confused as i said "word" twice referring to different things the Spanish word and the supposed adjective. it's just that i really don't want to type any of it so i said "that word" instead not thinking it would be confusing.
You know some csa shithead talked like that.
no. no it's not. people know its origins and who it's referring to. to deny this is a form of sealioning. fuck off with that
attaching this meaning to it is a form of dog whistle to get people to associate these traits with Black people. you are doing the propaganda work of white supremacy right now.
supremaCISM
"White supremacy" is what they think is the case. "White supremacism" is what they practice by thinking it.
Sorry for pedantry but this is one of those things that drives me nuts, similar to "my grandpa is on Facebook with all his conspiracies". NO. A conspiracy is real. A conspiracy THEORY is when a bunch of idiots think there's a conspiracy.
Mine is the word entitlement vs false sense of entitlement.
Me: "You are entitled to your social security money."
Other guy: "I'm not fucking entitled, that money is mine and I want it back."
Lol
Epstein cover up: Conspiracy - there’s a coordinated and documented effort to stop the information from being revealed to the public
Moon landing doubt: Conspiracy Theory - there’s no evidence of a coordinated suppression of information
Dunno, I once got told that you can use the word if you're black, LOL =\
And if I'd use it to address a bunch of friends whose ancestors weren't slaves and who are not black, I think this wouldn't be an insult. If there's a black person nearby, I won't risk it having a different effect though.
Using that word in the way you describe makes you racist and a white supremacist. There are many other words you can call your "friends."
No it doesn't. People have all kinds of perceptions of words. Get used to it, nobody is going to follow your whim.
It does. You can choose to use it, and I can call you a racist and white supremacist. All allowed. Natural consequences of being a racist and using racist terms is being hated by normal people and called out. Can't handle that, maybe stop using and defending the word and use a different one, ya dumb racist coward.
Buddy, you're not a normal person and nothing in this conversation says I'm a racist.
You're an idiot.
You desperately needing to say the n word is clearly you being racist. That you won't say it around black people shows you know it's wrong and that there are negative consequences for using it. You're just too scared to deal with the consequences so you snivel and whisper it like a grade schooler cussing on the playground.
You're a coward about it just like the white guy in this clip: https://youtube.com/shorts/SGsXaxgMzPo
This comment doesn't add anything to the discussion, go fuck yourself
You're a racist PoS. Go fuck yourself, ya sniveling racist coward.
I don't know what racist town you're from, but that is not reality no matter how much racists wish it was. As for a name for people who take more than anyone could ever deserve, we simply call them billionaires.
Woof, you realize that the episode of South Park you morons use to justify this "change in meaning" was satire, and was not meant to be a guide for how to use cognitive dissonance to change words' meanings to your own liking.
Lmao this chode is really over here trying to ignore all of the cultural context and redefine the n-word, to be able to use it without getting punched in the mouth.
It still has too much meaning, history, and baggage to change so quickly.
