my friend said, "it is never, ever okay for white people to say (n-word)."
she continued, "and the worst part of it, is that when you say it quoting someone else, you all always say it with such relish! it's as if you finally get the chance to say it where you can act as if it is not YOU saying it, so you really get off on saying it!"
the other day there was a thread on which that word was written, i think i counted, twenty times. i first thought i ought to write and post this then, but i didn't get a chance to then. the next day, there was another thread with it. today, there is another. maybe others i have not read.
the one loaded with it being left to stand gave permission for the second, and that, the next.
i knew i should post about the first one. the first utterance opened the floodgates for the next nineteen in that thread. so, of course, those would open it for the next and next.
"o! wheeee! i get to say IT!!!! and blame someone else!!!!"
that word (i will stick to saying this about whites saying it) is NEVER, EVER ANYTHING BUT A VULGAR, VILE, HURTFUL ATTACK ON ALL BLACKS.
how do you know it is never appropriate?
because black people have told you it is never appropriate.
so, how do you know when it is appropriate to use, or not?
it never is.
people go, "b-b-b-ut-but-but ... THEEEEEEEEEEY USE IT!!!!" why is is okay for THEEEEEEMMMMM to use it, but i get shit when i do?!!!!!"
well, let me try to put it in a way that white feminists might grasp why john lennon was being a racist prick when he put it in the title of a song that would further divide white feminists from women of color:
i am a d-ke who loves my c--t, but i would do anything in my power to stop anyone from ever, EVER calling YOU or anyone else either word in their vulgar senses; or from ever, EVER using either in those vulgar senses for ANY reason. in fact, if any man quotes me, i expect you to use "c-word." women? well, any woman has the right to determine that about her own personal beloved c--t, or another's she's been assured accepts that.
i hope not to read it on here anymore. it has been scary to see it go this far.

I think the OP has a point. We see the N-word a lot at the DUmp. Granted the are quoting something usually, but they do seem to take a perverse pleasure in doing so. That word appears most often in the DUmpster here, because we quote the DUmmies.They're more likely to attribute the word to some republican who never said it but they'll put it in quotes anyway as something that the rethug was thinking. But you're spot on in the perverse pleasure they take in doing it.

1. oh horseshit. words are just letters arranged in a certain order.
they have the meaning of the person who utters them. Nothing more, and nothing less.
There is nothing liberal or progressive about giving words power so that you can then exercise some perverse authoritarianism against your fellow.

40. i agree. thank you for adding that, Aerows.
notice that even as a lesbian i didn't write out dyke. and i wear a dyke button.
Who are they kidding,if you offered the DUmbasses a deal...all the free shit they whine they should have and in exchange the country went back to slavery,lets just say I would hate to be a black person at that point.
They don't want freedom.
Every last one of them would be perfectly happy to be a slave, so long as the overseer kept telling them that they were freemen.

You ****in' idiots are losing this one and you know it...
What's more, they are getting the clue as it applies to equality. More people are now questioning why it is some in society can get away with using racial slurs but others can't... Less and less civilized people are giving a shit about the color of their friends and are concerning themselves more with the content of their character.
As it should be.
But further than that, and most importantly, your actions have reopened this festering sore that you created between the races in your attempts at "fairness". It is a nasty, stinking, oozing wound that is going to cause many to recoil in horror but it will finally allow that wound to be properly treated. That will happen through real ideas of equality for everyone, special treatment of none, making your own way and not making excuses... It's happening, DUmmies, right before your very eyes. History is being made and the veritable "tide" is starting to roll against you. When real historians finally write of this period, many years from now, they will recount how a few privileged turds managed to abuse so many people for so very long. Your methods and tactics will be scrutinized and deconstructed, they will be taught as a warning to those who value themselves and their freedoms. It will be a study in how those you have used for so very long finally broke away from you and began to think for themselves.
When your own members are starting to wake up to reality and you shout them down, something has gone very wrong for you. This is happening more and more, every single day and it shows no sign of stopping. Your own forum members are starting to realize that 2+2 does indeed equal 4.
You're done, DUmmies, you're just too stupid to realize it.

Irish
Mick
Derogatory term for an Irishman in the U.S. and U.K. It is derived from Mickey and Mikey, nicknames for MÃcheál, a common Irish name for males after St. Michael.
Paddy
Derogatory term for an Irish man, derived from a nickname for Pádraig, a common Irish name for males after St. Patrick.
Pogue
Epithet derived from the Irish phrase, "Pog mo Thoin", meaning kiss my ass. It is generally not considered offensive.
Taig
Extremely offensive term often used to describe Catholics in Northern Ireland. It often has implications of Republican sympathy.
I am black, in protest of the current administration, even the white half of me is black. And I'm a lesbian, well male lesbian, but I should not be looked down upon as being any less than any other lesbian. How does BlakButch sound ? Any other suggestions ?
I'm pretty sure a muslim black dyke is the most equal of humans and could kill someone on video and be let off for that more equal status alone.Okay, I'm 2 for 3. In baseball, at .667, I'd already be in the hall of fame. But I'm going for the whole monty. Anyone know a good religion of peace inquisitor ?
Everyone on this forum should have a racially insensitive nickname. wasp, you go first.

Why me? Why do you have to pick on the fat kid?I don't see you as fat. I have my skinny glasses on !

That was AWESOME!!!!! :rofl:
True. As we know, DUmpmonkiez are the most racist creature out there. However, what I'm saying is about the whole perplexing issue of the word as above. It's incredibly stupid to me, and is maybe one of the reasons there are the Jacksons, and Sharptons out there. If the word was allowed freely as it is in the black community, (used freely without any derogatory hate, or malice involved) I still wouldn't use it, but actually, it might bring everyone together a bit more.
Believe it or not, that's not uncommon at the DUmp.
Uh-huh. I've been waiting for a chance to use it. :-)
Season 2 of "Rescue Me."
Why me? Why do you have to pick on the fat kid?

Oh now.
You know that because television has never been a part of this life, I have a vivid imagination, where pictures are formed from words, such as what I do with the primitives on Skins's island (and, as it turns out, I'm rarely that far off when envisioning what they really look like).
People here on conservativecave come in all shapes and sizes and colors.
But I ain't never "seen" nothing but beautiful people here.
