Much too white

Mark me down for the same.

I guess that eliminates Uncle Jemima's pure mash liquor too.

Like a literal slaveowner in Louisiana two hundred years ago knew that calling someone a "n*****" was offensive. GJ continues to prove he's from another planet.

I went to Johnnie's Beef the other day (hadn't been there in months), and noticed they had removed all the soda brand names from the menu board as well as the fountain machine itself, and replaced them with generic "COLA", "ROOT BEER", LEMON LIME", "ORANGE" etc. So I ordered a LEMON LIME with my combo. The cashier asked me to repeat the drink, and I thought it was because it was hard to hear with the mask I was wearing. After I once again said LEMON LIME a bit louder, the guy paused and then asked, "oh, you mean 7-UP?"

There are white kids who grow up with black kids that use it just the same.

There are also people in the south who use it just like any other pronoun. They never even think twice. It just is.

No.


Uh, pronoun?

I still hear the old "There are white Ns and there are black Ns".

OK you know the word is being used pejoratively when used that way, right? Like whoever is saying absolutely knows its offensive.

Whoops, I stand corrected.

Worried about "offensive" pancake mix and rice. But, rampant black crime not discussed?

DESPITE making up only 13% of all imitation maple syrup sales...

None of that is true

If you grow up literally anywhere in this country, you know the N word is offensive. Having a "hall pass" from your black friends you grew up around is irrelevant to that.

One time in 6th grade we neighborhood kids were at my friend's house and made a mess of the basement. His dad said we were living like white enwards. I told him there's no such thing.

Of course everyone knows it's an offensive word, but it's only very recently gotten to a ridiculous point where it's become a reason to to act like a murder has been committed when it comes out of a white person's mouth regardless of context, e.g. a rapper inviting a person on stage to sing along with him, or a professor reading Letter from a Birmingham Jail aloud.

Until about ten years ago, I'd read it if I came across it in class. Not no more.

It's really, really stupid.

I believe leash made that argument about people from his hometown. I think he knew though.

I don't know about acting like a murder, that seems hyperbolic to say the least.

But this isn't a new issue. I was like 13 the summer the Thong Song came out, and that was like a real fight kids all over we're having on who was allowed to sing a long to it

What's hyperbolic is the reaction. Yeah, it's a nasty word. But you know that the usage of it has been used to excuse people being beaten or occasionally even killed. The whole idea that only certain people are "allowed" to use certain words should be reprehensible to all of us. And no, I don't have the slightest desire to run around screaming "genius" or "burrito" or "patriot". But that isn't the point.

It's often a power play by people, one which enables them to yell at you or "educate" you or worse.

Ah, the autocorrect explains my confusion...I was wondering what a "white genius" was.
