Most people use it friendly and most people who do use it are black.

Judging by your strong feelings towards this subject and your stance on this argument, I'd think that your culture is primitive to mine in terms of what is socially acceptable. That is, in the future, you should open up and accept that the word is harmless. You're caught up in the past. But like you said, we're not discussing nationalism.

Living through the segregation doesn't make better than anyone else. Today's youth can say the "n" word if they want to.

By your logic, an obese woman cannot say "fatass" playfully because it is offensive. I know it's not the same, but it's pretty damn similar.

I say it is a matter of acceptance because you are denying it is okay to use a harmless word. It's people like you (and racists, of course) that make this word bad.

Now this is just getting petty. "Primitive"? Just because we have sense of respect means we're primitive to you and this generation of dimwits and swagfags?


Screw it, I give up.

I'll go talk to my great grandmother then..

Too bad the one who was in her 90s died a few years ago.

But they can't make that decision if they're already dead. Black youths approve of nigga, not to be confused with nigger. The word is now part of their culture, and you can't deny them that. I know this is just sounding like "get with the times, pops" but try to understand what I'm getting at.

That's the same word.

THAT'S EXACTLY THE SAME WORD, ONE WITH AN ACCENT AND ONE WITHOUT.

Anyways, I'd like to stop arguing and point out that the comedy duo Key & Peele (who I love) use the n word, but only as a joke.

Oh, believe me, it is most certainly NOT the same word. Nigga=/=Nigger

Tree- People, when I say nigga, I'm not trying to make the person to whom I've directed the word to feel like an inferior race, no, I'm joking. Like Key&Peele. You'd have to be racist to not be joking.
This nigga/This fool/This dude/This chick. All the same.

So you don't even agree that they're two different words?

You can greet people with "my nigga" but not with "you nigger." I don't like the word nigger, for the same reasons you don't. Nigga, however, is socially acceptable.

Also, Destroiya, that's not for you to decide. We're having a mature conversation here. If you cannot handle it, get out. Also, I know, we hijacked this thread.

D14- lol This isn't fighting. Carter hasn't exploded, and he's not going to. I explain the way I feel, he explains the way he feels, and then we point out what doesn't make sense.

Nigga is used in movies, songs, tv shows, etc., unlike it's fugly twin brother, nigger. Let's ask Meaiea what she thinks.
