Its funny how racism occurs during the internet but in public it's a different story. During multiplayer I hear the n word countless of times from Hispanics and whites and it doesn't bother me because I know they wouldn't say that around a group of brothers
English
-
My ninja if I call you the n word its cause we fam. Feel me bro? No hate
-
Completely agree,jump in a game of CoD and its unreal some of the words youll hear from little kids.... ive noticed once you start playing with better people (ages 20-40 usually) nobody gives a shit about race
-
yea thats true bro
-
Son what did I teach about acting like a Badass on the Internet... I think someone needs a grounding.
-
While I detest the use of any slur, that particular one is thrown about quite a bit. I find it interesting though that you call out caucasians, but don't call out africans for their use of the word. It doesn't matter who uses it when referring to whom, a slur is a slur, and should not be tolerated at all. Don't call caucasians racist for using such terminology when the african community uses it ad nauseam without any repercussions.
-
I have friends of all colors but I honestly have to say there are more racist black people than any other I would say from my personal experience and mainly just against white men. Most black dudes love white women lol
-
We say n-igga not n-igger there is a difference between these two variations in the black community. So there is no ground to stand on there....
-
That is a BS argument. One is simply a lazy form of the other, just as 'axe' is a lazy form of 'ask'. If caucasians were to use the 'ah' sound the african community would still charge racism. There is, in reality, no difference. Arguing otherwise perpetuates an equal but special argument that reeks of stupidity.
-
No it doesn't now see you're assuming automatically that I'm going to be completely indifferent towards you.... were you expecting this "aw naw dun aweady mezzed up". No it's not a bs argument those two words are entirely different and mean different things to the black community. Sorry but it does and to counter your argument of "I'm white if I say n-igga then I'll be racist or beat up." That statement is again like you like to post a generalization of the entire black community. So in other words no...sorry friend not every black person will beat you up for saying n-igga. Of course if you do say it and it does offend them you could always apologize. Which is something I thought we were all taught growing up.
-
And not once did I say Caucasians are racists
-
What you said was that whites and Hispanics (both ethnicities of Caucasian) actively participate in racism through the use of "the n word." In effect, you used politically correct speech to say that Caucasians are racist only on the internet. That's the "I said something to that effect, but I did not say that" clause. That way you (the politician in this instance) get to say what you mean through everyone else clarifying your words, but can deny ever actually saying it. Nice try, but some of us out in the interweb are purty darn smart to double-speak.
-
And here is something to clarify. I play multiplayer and hear whites and Hispanics use the term. Some use it outside the meaning of it. Some use it when they feel comfortable around other players to say it who don't mind. Black folks use it and so do I. I said that it doesn't bother me because in reality they wouldn't say it around people who would find it extremely offensive to hear it come out the mouth of a different race. For you to simply use intelligence and references for this conversation right now is meaningless if you misread my post
-
I contend that using it at all is ignorant, that's my point. The african community can't pick and choose when a term is racist and when it's not. It either is, or isn't. By using it, and allowing it to be used, we demean the memories of those who fought for equality on all levels, and continue to allow racism to live on through speech at a bare minimum.
-
Not only do we call ourselves that, But we call other races that as well. I see what your saying about the can use and who can't use. Which brings me to my pet peeve of why we as blacks get so offensive when another race uses it when we use it if not all of the time then most of the time.
-
Not saying black don't use the word either.
-
No you did not, but you emphasized caucasians as racist for using the term, but neglected , intentionally by my estimation, to label africans as such despite that the word is only prevalent in modern "civilized" society because it's used heavily by africans when referring to other africans, it began primarily through entertainers, Richard Pryor being at the forefront in terms of mass popularity back in the day, then spread and continued through all other medias, especially music and television. If the african community despised the vterm so much, as african leaders contend, then its use would be virtually non-existent outside of some very backwood, uneducated, uncivilized extreme minority societies. Just to clarify; what I said there is that, if it weren't for african entertainers making the term a continued mainstream term, the vast majority of the nation wouldn't even know the meaning or origin of the term, and it would not so slowly be removed from society.
-
Ok so who are you trying to convince?
-
Apparently not you. But maybe a tiny nugget of wisdom will slip through to others and we can finally start really putting racism behind us, by eradicating the language of racism from our collective vocabularies.
-
It would have to be a group of coloreds. Because y'all bitches can't hang 1 on 1. Always gotta jump in and gang up on someone. Pathetic.
-
You shouldn't make generalizations the opposite of your scenario happens as well.
-
That's not always true you know? White boys gang up on one black on multiple occasions. And why use the word colored. That alone makes it seemed like you being the ignorant one
-
Yep a bunch of Internet "tuff guys" but when why are around them they hide under the covers....
-
Yeah all those young white nerds on the internet throwing the word -blam!- around, but would get shot in real life if they said it to a black man. That's why they have a mic to act hard over the internet
-
They would get shot because black people are aggresive, under evolved guerrillas.
-
Do you even know how much bigotry was included with what you said? "White nerds", "if you said it to a black man, you'd get shot"... You're just as bad as them.
