calling people the n word doesnt make you racist, it's like calling someone retarded, ofc they arent actually mentally challenged, does nobody remember when junior high students were calling eachother gay. I know gay people who dont care when I say gay, I know black people who don't care if I say ******, white people dont give a **** about being called cracker, i have some aboriginal friends that i joke about going to casinos and white man taking their land and living on reserves and they joke back
like yea the kid was using it aggressively but it wasn't meant to be racist, it was rude but not racist
isn't one of the rules on the ds skype/discord that you can make rape jokes but not racist jokes? (might be the other way around) that's so dumb, either everything is okay or nothing is okay. one of my best friends has been raped and i constantly make rape jokes and they laugh and join in, a few of my friends have attempted suicide and we joke about it. I'm not defending the kid cuz the way he used it was dumb and something a junior high student with no grasp of comedy would say, but just in general it's not a bad word to say, context matters.
like when tarantino did it everyone was furious but he used ****** in django with historic connotations because that's what it was like back then, as I said, context matters
people are super sensitive nowadays and it's p dumb, most black people dont care if someone says the n word, no one bats an eye when eminem says it cuz "it's an art form when he does it" the only way the n word is offensive depends on context like if youre legit racist and call a black person a ******
It's all about context and being aware of your surroundings and who you're talking to.
I would bet money that you wouldn't say or make these kinds of jokes in front of a stranger. Because you don't want to cause any trouble with someone you don't know and you don't know if they take kindly to that humor.
