What post of mine got moved here? Lol

Yrah i got a notice that one.of mine got moved to my "Blaze Lost Me When.." thread. Some kinda glitch

I try to stay away from the word altogether. My stepmom is black, she uses the word from time to time, but I think I've just quietly understood that it's their word to use. Even though that has sparked many many arguments, about it being a double standard or whatever, I've quietly just believed this. But the truth of the matter is the word itself has it's roots so deep in the history of hatred. I don't think ANYONE should use it. but people will regardless, just out of spite, or say it's their right to do so.

My step brother sometimes calls me his nigga, but I don't say it back. I just... don't. Jamie and Paul can say what they like, but no, I don't think they should say it either. Blaze either, but then again...it's just a touchy subject. Especially with recent events that have occurred.

I think people pay way too much attention to the rhetoric of things rather than to the true meaning.

 

Lesson here is; the presentation means much more than the intent.

true.

Well, Blaze is black soooooo........

 Looks pretty white to me...

admittedly i probably use the word a lil more than i should XD it really just has become part of my vocabulary when i'm with my friends and people i'm comfortable with, just like the slew of other swear words i use, but i don't say it in public because i don't talk like a sailor in public in general. for the simple reason that there may be children around, old people who don't wanna here that garbage... ect.

i don't want to offend anybody or ruin somebody's good time because i don't believe that "swear words" are actually bad words, until you use them to try and offend somebody then they are just more descriptive words that i use.

That's photo shopped. Have you heard him rap? He black

 

And don't tell me,... You think the Earth is round too huh?  Pffft 

Nah man. This bitch is flat. There's no way it's round- that's just preposterous. 

Negro is Spanish for black. The more you know!

gold manacles are still manacles if you ask me. seriously, hald the black rappers out nowadays wanna look like rich slaves. silly black people.

In saying that i avoid the word in most cases, its not really overtly offensive in australia i just dont really say it. i mean if im singing along to a song and it comes up then yeah ill say it but i dunno just feels like a stupid word to me. why blak people feel the who need to 'take it back' when it was never your word to begin with is beyond me.

I only say it if I'm singing along and its in a song, by myself.

I hate when wiggers say nigga. Wait, I hate wiggers 

Nigger's etymology comes from the Latin word Niger which means black, dark, and wicked.
