Sargon claims he is using the word in the way described in this stand up comedy routine where Chris Rock (a black person) talks about the difference between 'Black people and niggers' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3PJF0YE-x4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3PJF0YE-x4
Sargon said something like he was denigrating the 'alt right / nazi trolls' for behaving the way the 'nazis' claim the people they hate behave in.
- zimpenfish 8y ago> Sargon claims Well, of course he does. He'd be stupid not to. But it's very easy to say "ONLY JOKING" whenever you get called on your offensive bullshit that you originally intended.
- nugga 8y agoYes didn't he say he meant to cause offense? Using that word (or any word) to offend non blacks does not somehow cause it to grow tentacles and attack every black person alive. Context and intent matters and I don't think you or anyone else gets to make that call on "hidden motives" or effects beyond what is stated on record.
- zimpenfish 8y ago> I don't think you or anyone else gets to make that call on "hidden motives" or effects beyond what is stated on record. Of course we do. Subtext, hidden meanings, coded language, dogwhistling, etc. are all valid things that people can discern in others' speech.
- UncleMeat 8y agoChris Rock regrets that bit exactly because it has given cover to bigots to use the n word in this way.
