But I have a childhood memory of watching an episode of Oprah where there was a white supremacist on the show outlining the “differences” between black people and niggers. I don’t find the list above any less moronic. > > If you have a problem with all white people, and you have the ability to enunciate your reasoning, then do so. If you have a problem with a specific subset of white people, then elaborate on who those people are, why you have the problem with them, and what they have in common beyond being white. Don’t equate them with everyone who happens to be white. Don’t come up with some stupid name for them that leaves a lot of ambiguity about who you’re referring to. Don’t use “nicknames” as an excuse to be racist. At best, it’s lazy. And it is never “at best.” (from a thread we had a month or two about this word) That sums it up I think. Dribble can love the word all he wants but it makes him full of shit, if you ask me. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/yall-wypipo-need-to-grow-some-skin/817434)._
