An oversight on my part… But yes, the Chinese and the Japanese, as well as the Irish, and just about every other non-Anglo-Saxon culture has been shitted on in some way by the white folks in charge.
People forget about Japanese internment camps during WW2, Chinese workers who were thought of as less then blacks, and the fact that many Irish were indeed slaves and almost quite literally killed people to becomes citizens of the US.
I don’t really give a fuck who says it. I don’t get triggered off of it and I’m pretty desensitized to vulgar/derogatory language, but if somebody else gets upset and the person who said it gets fucked up for it, that’s on them. I’m not gonna try to be the word police, just let people find out the hard way if they’re in the wrong crowd and they don’t already know any better.
Yea man. I’ve read those hate speeches, going back all through recorded history.
In US history, replace the racial slurs with appropriate ones for the Irish, Italians, Japanese, LGBT, etc, and it’s always the same bullshit.
All over the world, people feel the need to discriminate and kill based on whatever the fuck excuse allows them to.
Wait, what was this thread about? Oh yea, fuck those damn rich people. I’d be a modern day Robin Hood if I could. /laughing at myself.
I was born in Poland, so I ain’t your generic Irish/Scot/Brit/German/Scandinavian American born mutt and my country has been shit on for hundreds of years.
Can I use it?
I personally don’t say it in person. I wasn’t raised to say profanity in general and I only get a little uncomfortable when I hear other people say it but it doesnt offend or make me dislike them for saying it. I believe anyone can say it, but just like telling a joke, you need to know your audience.
Paul Mooney was right indeed; not so much about the Tom Hanks thing, but more so when he said ‘everybody wants to be a nigga but nobody wants to be a nigga’ People out here crying to use the word, but won’t even acknowledge the issues black people face in the present day. Bunch of lames romanticizing the culture with no love for the people it represents. It’s only fitting that the cries are loudest from the folks that essentially have life set to easy mode.
P.S.
You niggas better be carrying that same tune when it’s time for ‘fa**ot’ to make a comeback.
IM WRITING NAMES DOWN GODDAMMIT
Cockatie or khackatee. Honestly I dont know how it is spelled and neither does my god mother who is straight from the islands and is pushing 70. Basically, she said it means white people who don’t care about anyone but themselves and put less well off people down.
Its impossible to hurt the superior races feelings with bigoted words because we have no words that can actually hurt us. Unlike every other race.
Cracka? Lol. Owned land and people. This might as well be a badge of superiority.
Honky? Apparently it was a term for rich white men getting black prostitutes…How is this an insult again?
Red neck? Most red necks tend to use this shit as a badge of honor.
Hill billy? Look at red neck.
Trailer Trash? Every one can be trailer trash so I wouldn’t exactly call this a white only thing, but, again, no white person really gets offended at this.
Hick? See Red Neck.
Jew? This can’t even be an insult since being a Jew means you rule the world, and you know how to haggle.
Mick? Really only works on the Irish and they’re too drunk most of the time to notice the word being used.
Pasty? Might as well just say "Superior Race"
Okwesu Ocha? Stop making up words.
The word is unique, all of that “mick and cracker are the same thing” doesn’t work, and for the same reason that every third White person will mention at some point “you know, Irish people were slaves too” (as if it is new information), isn’t the same, either.
As for Chet. He’s feels entitled to do what he wants because he has a rich dad and an antisocial personality type. Not sure how much more there is to it than that.
