Quote by: SoccerfreakAB2 What's the difference between calling a person a nigger and the same person a f****** retard? Could he kick my ass if I called him a butthead, too?
It is not used to insult blacks!! Or else why would blacks be calling themselves nigger???
Simple politeness according to you? To the majority? Please...overrated.
And it's none of your business what I choose to say to anyone's face, including your own. They are my words and if you think my sound waves hurt people, then I don't know what to say.
Oh yeah, about Lenny Bruce. You were exactly right. Not only is he funny, but he knows what he's talking about:
"Well, I was just trying to make a point, and that is that it's the suppression of the word that gives it the power, the violence, the viciousness. Dig: if President Kennedy would just go on television, and say, "I would like to introduce you to all the niggers in my cabinet," and if he'd just say "nigger nigger nigger nigger nigger" to every nigger he saw, "boogie boogie boogie boogie boogie," "nigger nigger nigger nigger nigger" 'til nigger didn't mean anything anymore, then you could never make some six-year-old black kid cry because somebody called him a nigger at school."
It's the "supression" of the word that gives it power, that is, avoiding it's use. Look closely, he's basically advocating everything I'm trying to say, from the idea of overusing until it means nothing derogatory to the fact that words should have no physical effect on people. |
god damn dude just let the niggers say nigga. Why does the white man always need to butt in? |
