Comment on Peter Thiel’s bestie going mask off
rottingleaf@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoDunno, I once got told that you can use the word if you’re black, LOL =\
And if I’d use it to address a bunch of friends whose ancestors weren’t slaves and who are not black, I think this wouldn’t be an insult. If there’s a black person nearby, I won’t risk it having a different effect though.

Using that word in the way you describe makes you racist and a white supremacist. There are many other words you can call your “friends.”

No it doesn’t. People have all kinds of perceptions of words. Get used to it, nobody is going to follow your whim.
LustyArgonianMana@lemmy.world 3 weeks ago
It does. You can use it, and I can call you a racist and white supremacist. All allowed. Natural consequences of being a racist and using racist terms is being hated by normal people and called out. Can’t handle that, maybe stop using and defending the word and use a different one, ya dumb coward.

Buddy, you’re not a normal person and nothing in this conversation says I’m a racist.
You’re an idiot.
