You know? The way that they refuse to say "nigger" at any cost, because lest they do it, their compatriots, completely oblivious to the use-mention distinction, will brand them as racists the instant that their golf-ball sized brain (approximately 0,0003 rugby fields) pick up the acoustic signal of the word. Makes me think of the wizards afraid to say "Voldemort".
And don't get me started on unrelated words that sound somewhat similar! My colleague from Niger would make them quite uncomfortable introducing herself.

People from Niger are called Nigeriens. Not to be confused with Nigerians who are people from Nigeria.
But to be real, white people never say the n word out loud in America, because the best thing that can happen to you if you try that is you never get hired for a real job again and are socially ostracized so you have to hang out with some middle aged men who act like teenagers in a biker gang or something lame like that. Or alternatively, you’ll walk up to the wrong black person in the wrong part of town and say that, next thing you know, cars with armed men are following you around. It’s really just stupid, it’s natural selection. If something doesn’t work, nature sorts it out.

Like, it’s one thing to say blacks are criminals on the internet and say the n word from the safety of your bedroom behind a computer screen. If you actually pulled up to the south side of Chicago and walked around calling actual gang members the n word as a white dude, you’re gonna have a real short life expectancy.

And it’s not really even just the n word, if you’re just disrespectful to people, like, things you don’t even think are that bad, like calling somebody gay or ugly or stupid, there are some people out there that have no self control and people in this country have guns. If you do it in wealthier places, in the suburbs, places where people have families and jobs and they have something to lose, they won’t lash out at you, but if you walk up to the wrong type of people being disrespectful, you’re just a straight up retard for that. You only have one life on this Earth, if you want to lose it over being able to say one insult, that’s on you I guess.

And this whole thing about free speech, that’s something the government made up, it’s not real. It can be illegal to kill someone for saying something, but the government isn’t God, God is all powerful. The government can’t bring you back to life.

I am not talking about being racist, burger-man. I am talking about talking about the word itself. I am talking about hypothetically asking a question "is there an equivalent of <<nigger>> in other cultures?". HIBT?

Yes. There are other parts of the world where groups have been discriminated against or oppressed, just look into the history of the caste system in India and the untouchables or into the history of what the Japanese did to Koreans and Chinese people.

Or even in Africa, if you look into the Rwandan genocide for example, a million people were killed in a hundred days. There are instances of atrocities all over the world, and there are things that offend various groups of people all over the world. It’s completely ignorant to suggest that black Americans are the only people on the planet who get offended by something that happened historically. I mean, Eastern Europe for example, Hitler killed 20 million Russians. Of course there are things people have feelings about in other cultures. Why would you think there aren’t?

Yes, everywhere a people comes into contact with niggers the supremacists among them are justified by their xenoinvidia and a new word for nigger is created.

I wonder, do high schoolers in America still read Huck Finn? Or To Kill a Mockingbird? I recall having to read them, which included discussions on how the word was used in them, why, how the context matters, etc. We would read passages out loud, both students and teachers, and no one made a big deal out of it, even the black kids. Because we understood the context and that reading/quoting a book is not the same as using a word in a targeted way to hurt someone. Granted I spend too much time on the internet so perhaps the general populace isn't quite as incapable of making that distinction as I am led to believe by my online observations.
