White people are NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER allowed to use that word. Not even when it ends in a instead of er. Not affectionately toward a friend. Not in anger. Not casually in conversation. Not reading out loud in class. Not in the comments section of Fox News. Not rapping along with Biggie. Not. Fucking. Ever.
It's like...common sense rule #1 of not being a racist asshole. Or just being decent. Which we can't even seem to fucking manage anymore.
I may get slammed for saying this, but can we please add this and any other racist word like it to a censored words list (Google says proboards has this feature)? If someone thinks it's OK to type here, then at least others can't be hurt by seeing it typed out.

Please don't tar and feather me.
I don't necessarily agree with this, white people should just not be saying it. The WOC should be able to be use it freely if they want.
ETA; and adding a censored version wouldn't make it any less offensive if used by someone who has no right using it.

Please don't flame me.
Seriously? You really think that's going to do any good? And lol at no one getting hurt by it.

Not up to me, but IMO, dumb racist fucks need to show their ass. We already agreed (well, it seemed most of us did) that it was up to us as a community to call out and make those who are racist not feel welcome.
I just really wish those who are repeatedly decent and kind didn't keep getting hurt.

I'm absolutely disgusted with her. It's vile. It just shows a level of self absorption where she can't even empathize with how seeing that word would impact someone.
I shouldn't be surprised anymore. People were burning Black churches LAST FUCKING YEAR. Dylan Roof got Burger King for committing the deadliest hate crime in nearly a century. A Black child was gutshot in a park and left to bleed in front of his sister, and nothing happened to the murderer. Is it so hard to see Black people as human?

I'm sorry, people can claim ignorance on micro aggressions, not understanding the origin of certain phrases, etc. But there isn't a single intelligent person alive who thinks using the fucking n word is ok. Christ.

WTF? And also, how did it take so long for someone to call her out on that? Bullshit that nobody noticed or didn't read her post close enough. Bullfuckingshit.

And it's not just her. How many posts were in that thread after hers and NONE of them mentioned it?? They're all trying to act like they just skimmed over it.
