> No, we’re saying it’s wrong to use the tools of white supremacism. And moreover, that it doesn’t help you at all. Calling people the N word doesn’t protect you in any way. If anything, it puts you more in danger of harm.

I disagree and all my experience confirms that. You have to know how to use the word nigger to convey not just ridicule and humiliation, but a level of utter contempt that indicates you see physically harming that person as merely an inconvenience in life, not a matter of breaking a moral code. I’ll use whatever tools to repel a harasser possible rapist as are at my disposal.
