Now if I recall, both idiot and moron were text book medical terms for mental retardation--they just got colloquialized and accepted in regular use. Saying something like "Quit being a nigger and come to the movies" has no real animosity towards black people in general (I suppose it could depending on the person) and it doesn't support some stereotype that black people don't like going to the movies.
Dancing around hateful words and giving them some phony burial does nothing but divert attention from the real problem of unwarranted hatred. "Burying" a word because it's offensive and can be used as a weapon against black people is bullshit, the problem isn't the fucking word. This empty gesture makes me fucking sick--have they no better ideas?
This really fucking aggravates me.
We have a thread for that.Quote:

I've only said this word to one black person before, and me and him have been in a constant fight for the past 9 years. I still feel bad whenever I want to say it to him. But I really don't feel bad about muttering the word under my breath to half of the people who come into my job every day. As Chris Rock once so eliquently put it, "Don't get me wrong, I love black people. But I hate niggers." There really is a difference. It's all about how you act, same way with white people and crackers/honkeys/whiteys or any other racial comment. The stereotype is continually justified by the idiots of the race... unfortunately.
There's a present of hate and bigotry behind the word, which is why it won't go until that hate and bigotry goes. This is missing the point.Quote:
