Originally posted by Kafka I don't know anything about black peoples issues and don't want to. There's no black people here, there was only one black kid in my highschool. I want to stay in my bubble where it has nothing to do with me, not hating myself for white priviledge or developing ethnomasochism. Irish people were sold into slavery by the English as well.

2023-02-20 at 12:39 AM UTC in Candyrein still finds the word "nigger" offensive despite having been on NIS for five years.But why do black people say it if it's offensive?
The use of the N-word, including by some Black people, is a complex and controversial issue. Historically, the word has been used as a term of racial oppression and degradation, and was frequently used by white people as a slur against Black people. The word has been reclaimed by some Black people as a term of empowerment and solidarity within their community. However, not all Black people use the word, and there is ongoing debate and discussion within the Black community about the use of the word, particularly in public spaces and around non-Black people.
It's important to remember that language and its meaning can be deeply personal and emotional, and different people have different opinions about the use of the N-word. It's generally considered inappropriate and offensive for non-Black people to use the word, as it can be seen as an attempt to appropriate or demean Black culture, and it's important to be respectful and mindful of other people's feelings and experiences.
yeah, I think it's racist to even say the Letter because there is a meme online where someone will just post N and then the "funny" response is to respond with "I" because it's PRETTY CLEAR where that's gonna go (the word) which Is why I call it "the word" because it's obvious what I'm referring to and I am eliminating EVERY possibility of offending anyone. example ; YO MY WORD WHATS COOKING! or MAN THOSE MUSH MOUTHED WORDS ARE BUSTAS! see? Not offensive at all, what do you think? Am I insane for refusing to say the letter N calling it "the N word" and instead using the term "word"It's completely understandable that you choose not to use the actual word and instead use "the N word" or "word" to avoid offending anyone. It's important to be respectful of others and their feelings, and to not use language that could be hurtful or offensive. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to decide how they want to express themselves, but being mindful of others is always a good practice.
You're right, "the word" is not a common way to refer to the racial slur. The more commonly used term is "the N-word".
So what? Am I just insane then because that's obviously the best way to make everyone happyNo, you're not insane. It's perfectly reasonable to want to be respectful and avoid causing offense. The term "the word" can be a way to avoid using a term that some people may find offensive, while still being clear about what you're referring to. It's ultimately up to you to decide what language you feel comfortable using, but it's important to be mindful of how your words may impact others.
Does that mean everyone else is insane?No, it doesn't mean that everyone else is insane. The issue of what term to use for the N-word is a complex one, and different people have different opinions about it. Some people prefer to use the term "the N-word" as a way of avoiding offense, while others feel that this term is itself offensive and prefer to use alternative terms or simply avoid using the word altogether. Ultimately, the most important thing is to be respectful of others and to use language that is inclusive and sensitive to the experiences of people from different backgrounds.
But they aren't avoiding it, saying the first letter is basically the same thing as saying the word, you are thinking it and referring to it, instead of destroying it like saying "the word" does.I understand your perspective, but it's important to recognize that language and societal norms are complex and often slow to change. The use of the n-word has a long and painful history, and for many people, hearing or seeing the word, even in abbreviated or censored form, can be hurtful and triggering.
While saying "the word" may not completely eliminate the problem, it can be seen as a step in the right direction towards reducing the harm caused by the use of the n-word. It acknowledges the offensiveness of the word and shows a level of respect and consideration towards those who may be negatively affected by it.
It's also worth noting that some people may still find the use of "the word" offensive, as it still requires the listener to think about the n-word in order to understand what is being referred to. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to decide what language they feel comfortable using and what they
I am offering a solution that nobody wants because they are unable to think of "the word" without associating it with something racist even though it destroys any need to use said word. It's not cool to call anyone any name that isn't their birth name I guess. Because if nobody is willing to change anything even slightly I don't see how this can ever be fixed, it seems to me like people WANT to perpetuate this or they lack any ability to even think without such things existingWhile your proposed solution of using "the word" may seem like a way to avoid using a particular term that is associated with racism, it is important to consider how that term came to be associated with racism in the first place. Words have historical and cultural contexts that cannot be separated from their current use, and in the case of the term you are referring to, it has a deeply hurtful and oppressive history.
In addition, it's important to recognize that the experiences and perspectives of individuals from marginalized communities must be centered in discussions about issues of racism and discrimination. If individuals from these communities express that a particular term or phrase is hurtful or offensive, it's important to listen and respect their perspective.
Ultimately, meaningful progress towards a more equitable society requires a collective effort to challenge and change attitudes, beliefs, and systems that perpetuate discrimination and inequality. This includes examining our use of language, but it must go beyond that to include concrete actions and policies that promote justice and equity.

.Distracts from productive discussions: When individuals engage in disruptive or harmful behavior, it can distract from productive discussions and prevent members of the community from sharing their perspectives and ideas.
.Harms community trust: Such behavior can erode trust within the community and make it more difficult for members to engage with one another in a respectful and productive way.
.Discourages participation: When people feel that their contributions to the community will be met with hostility or negativity, they may be less likely to participate and engage, ultimately limiting the community's growth and success.
.Creates a hostile environment: Trolling, offensive comments, and other disruptive behavior can create a hostile environment that can make people feel uncomfortable and unwelcome, especially if they are members of a marginalized group.
.Spreads false information: Spreading false information can harm the community's ability to make informed decisions and can contribute to the spread of harmful ideas or beliefs.
If everyone just posts intentional disruption and there is no "real discussion," the internet community would cease to function as a place for constructive dialogue and exchange of ideas. The community may become a toxic environment, with members engaging in unproductive behavior and attacking one another, rather than working towards common goals or engaging in meaningful discussions.
Without real discussion, the community would lack the diversity of perspectives and ideas that make it a valuable resource for learning and growth. It would become a space for trolling, offensive behavior. If nobody cares what happens in a community focused on toxicity and unproductive trolling, it may seem like it's okay. However, it's important to consider the broader consequences of such a community, particularly if the behavior within it spills over into the wider social and political climate.
It is worth noting that online behavior can have real-world consequences, particularly if it contributes to the spread of false information or hateful attitudes. Moreover, individuals who engage in trolling and other unproductive behavior may find themselves increasingly isolated and disengaged from other aspects of life, leading to a decline in mental health and emotional well-being.
In short, even if nobody appears to care what happens within a community focused on toxicity and unproductive trolling, it's important to recognize the potential consequences of such behavior and to consider the broader implications for individuals and society as a whole.

2023-02-19 at 8:13 PM UTC in How are you feeling at the moment..Yes, intentional disruption can certainly include off-topic troll posts that add nothing to the conversation and are intended to harm or offend others. This type of behavior is often referred to as trolling, and it can take many forms, such as posting offensive or inflammatory comments or images, spreading false information, or engaging in other disruptive or harmful behavior.
In general, intentional disruption can refer to any behavior or action that is intended to harm, offend, or otherwise disrupt a community or conversation. This can include a wide range of activities, from hacking and phishing to cyberbullying and harassment, as well as other forms of abusive behavior such as trolling.
It is important to remember that online communities and conversations should be respectful and inclusive spaces where people feel safe to share their thoughts and ideas. Trolling and intentional disruption can undermine this sense of safety and make it difficult for people to participate in online communities without fear of harassment or harm. As such, it is important to call out and discourage this type of behavior whenever it is observed. -
