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.
