It’s not that it isn’t a big deal, because plenty of white people use it. It’s just a bit of a mine field. I think in casual situations, it’s a sign of acceptance into mixed race social group for a white person to use the word and not offend. Nobody should be using the word outside of a casual relationship situation.



I use it sometimes jokingly, although maybe not in a while. I'd like the word to stop being used because it reminds me of racism. I know adding "ga" in replace of "er" brings a different meaning, but I'd prefer it to stop being used. Sure, "ga" doesn't give that strong feeling as the other one, but I still think of the previous meaning sometimes.

Also let's take into consideration that most people, including black people, don't use that word to show power over it. Young kids just grew up with that word.

I was watching this reality tv show about this county jail in Georgia or something (first and last or something like that). Seemed like people there more or less used "nigga" to mean "guy", not so much a black guy in particular. And nobody skipped a beat when it was a white guy using the term in this way. Now I don't know what can be concluded from that but I sure don't go around saying it.




I think it means that the language of use is very often influenced and dictated by social status. Some languages have a formal and informal “you” and which one you use is determined by the social status of the speaker and target.



Yeah it seemed like a display of camaraderie.

I mean, I'm not defending it, but are you really just now figuring out that some of the people here are kind of shitty?

They've always (well, at least since 2002) been here, but there are plenty of really cool people, too. I'd hate to see you let the shitty people run you off. You seem pretty cool to me, and it would just increase the shitty to cool ratio. I'd really rather not see this place go downhill like that.

First of all, the word "retarded" is extremely insensitive to people with disabilities, so watch your mouth, dude.

Second of all, failing to understand why black people can say N****r, but white people can't isn't necessarily indicative of cognitive disability. It could just be a sign of ignorance, lack of education, or lack of experience, all of which are forgivable and reparable. I think you have been too quick to judge OP as a racist. Indeed, there are some white people out there who are acting in bad faith with questions like these, and are simply looking for an excuse to say the n-word. However, I don't think OP is one of those people. I think he genuinely had an etymological question, and I don't think he has any intention of excusing his own use of the word. I think this becomes especially clear if you read OP's responses in this thread.

Back in the early `70s in H-Town the N word referred to any person that was a lazy no good  piece of shit who would not work or take care of his family
It was not directed exclusively to a black man at all

A nigger could be a lowlife white boy or a person of mexican or asian decent
If someone was from Iran or Iraq they were often called sand niggers if they were a piece of shit and fit the description of a nigger

In the late 60`s black people wanted to be called negros, then they wanted to be called Afro Americans, then they got pissed off and insisted on being called Blacks
Fuck if you call a black person black now you will probably be crucified

The scourge of america today is all the white boys that constantly do meth
Most all my black and mexican co-workers are smart enough to stay away from that shit

I hate most the whiteys i am forced to work with these days
This country is really messed up:sad:

Fuck it. When Blacks keep using Nigger I say fuck it and am going to use it if I feel like it too.

Like Dave Chappelle even calls George Floyd a Nigger in the YouTube video below with Black people in the crowd laughing. So fuck it.

8:46 - Dave Chappelle

Here's couple of timestamps and quotes when Dave says Nigger:

2:50  "If people like the Nigger's jokes, they honk the horn."

7:51  "This Nigger said everybody I was screaming at the T.V. I dare you to say me Nigger."

8:11  "This Nigger expects me."

8:43  "These Niggers are saying."

9:14  "They killed this Nigger" -  talking about George Floyd

9:27  "I don't a fuck what this Nigger did. I don't care what this Nigger did."  -  talking about George Floyd

12:29  "Don't do any more Hangovers Nigger that's enough."

13:50  "Is there anything I can do for you Nigger."

14:07  "When they figured where this Nigger was."

14:18  "They Swiss cheesed this Nigger."

15:12  "This Nigger."
