> [@BigT](#): > > And literally everything in that post applies equally to the n-word. Nigger’s derogatory and kind of racist towards whites now? Man, white privilege really does cover everything. Or did you mean a different sort of “literally”, you boring bufoon? > [@](#): > > Yes, I do believe that, considering it is the factual case. Now, I want to get this clear, so there’s no doubt, so I’m going to ask again: You think the issue with “nigger” is \*\*just \*\*that the word itself has a history of being used derogatorily? You don’t think who said it historically, to whom they said it, and the relationship between those two groups both then and now, is of \*any \*relevance? Is “factual” another word, like “literally”, that means something different in Bloviating Idiot Land? > [@](#): > > I don’t have your back. This is not news. > [@](#): > > I do, however, have the back of your minority group No, you really don’t. You don’t even really know anything about my minority group. > [@](#): > > , and will continue to fight even as you actively choose to make everything worse. That’s mighty white of you, to take up such a burden, man. > [@](#): > > The idea that you think being “woke” is a real thing just shows how little you care about reality. Like I said - show-liberal. > [@](#): > > You’re talking about a term used to make people think they aren’t racists You have no idea how the word was used originally, and continues to be used today, do you? All you seem to know is what reactionaries have told you it means. Tell me again how you’re on the front lines… > [@](#): > > when anyone knows that everyone is somewhat racist. Wait, [I know this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RXnM1uHhsOI)… Do me a favour, chump - don’t take morality lessons from satirical puppets. > [@](#): > > It’s just a way to pat yourself on the back. :rolleyes: Oh, yeah, no experience with any real fight against racism here, I just have these empty words to make myself feel like I’m doing something. Fool, you have no idea… > [@](#): > > Or it means believes you believe conspiracy nonsense. What idiocy are you spouting now, you drooling simpleton? > [@](#): > > And here you are deliberately creating a strawman, as I did not say anything of the sort. > [@](#): > > really does become\*\* just \*\*about “what we find offensive.” Oh, really? Is “just” also a word you don’t know the meaning of? > [@](#): > > If I’m so wrong, why do you have to make up shit I didn’t say? Did I quote you? > [@](#): > > I never said it was equal. I said “fair and balanced”, and that’s certainly what your strategy thinks it aims to be. Tell me, how’s that “We go high” bullshit working out for y’all, lately? > [@](#): > > I said it gives ammunition to the alt-right to claim such, because you can’t keep the lid on your desire to use a slur against white people. I give a shit what neo-Nazis do or don’t take umbrage at. And it’s not a slur on “white people”. It’s a slur on wypipo. > [@](#): > > I went out of my way to be nice to you and understand your anger and your reactions. Oh, was your “I was _totally_ going to report him for fairness sake, but you got there first” bullshit in ATMB you going out of your way to be nice to me? I’m not asking for your imbecilic notion of understanding, you microcephalic cretin. Just fuck off with your tediousness already. > [@](#): > > Then you treated me like garbage. Because you’re a garbage person. > [@](#): > > You go around using a term that you know will piss people off and thus lose them as potential allies. If “wypipo” pisses them off, they were never an ally to begin with. > [@](#): > > You could get them on your side, but you’re so interested in a fucking purity test that you put that above the cause. “the cause”? Listen to this wannabe Weatherman in here. You really are just a blustering chucklefuck, aren’t you? You don’t like the idea of a purity test because you know you would fail miserably. But then, you’d fail a Voigt-Kampff too, so no surprises there. > [@](#): > > So, while I’m sure most Dopers have nothing to learn from me, it sure fucking seems you do. Yeah, not so much, no. > [@](#): > > I’m assuming good faith in that you’re not trying to make things worse, but you fucking are. Wait, by “not make things worse”, did you mean “play nice with racists”? Because fuck that noise. > [@](#): > > It sucks that, to be a full SJW anti-racist, anti-bigotry, pro-feminist, progressive, socialist, and moral person You know, I’ve always held that “virtue signalling” was always a _good_ thing. Turns out I was wrong. > [@](#): > > that I have to fight against someone who I am trying to help. “have to” - “help” - yeah, don’t do me any favours. > [@](#): > > You could fix it, or you can continue to be sputtering in anger and accomplishing nothing. Oh, you’re soooo right - anger’s never helped me in social justice causes before… …oh, wait, I have a set of shiny voter registration stamps dating back to '94 that says completely different. :rolleyes: Now shut the fuck up and _think_, before you have the stupid, privileged fucking arrogance to presume to fucking lecture \*me \*on what does and doesn’t work in combating racism. When _you’ve_ been whipped, teargassed and shot at for the colour of your skin, you can try that tack. Until then - just shut the fuck up, **BigT** --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/yall-wypipo-need-to-grow-some-skin/817434)._
