well rednecks self-identify with that term so i don't think it's really comparable. and it's not really a stretch to say there are a lot of bigoted rednecks.

The same doesn't apply to the n-bomb? They absolutely are comparable.

7/16/2011 8:54:37 PM

^Good point. I've always said if black people have a problem with the term, they need to stop using it so freely because it makes it seem OK. All of my black friends never utter the term and that's the way it should be if there's all of that negativity sprung out of it.

No? What black person do you know that refers to themselves as a "nigger"?

They call themselves rednecks! What am I supposed to call them?

Maybe not refer to themselves directly but in public I've overheard some black ppl refer to other black ppl as such.

Yeah but no black person self-identifies as a "nigger".

*facepalm*

You're right, black people never use it amongst themselves or identify with it any way. The only time the word is ever heard is when it comes out of the mouth of a disgusting bigoted redneck. My bad, what the fuck was I thinking?

Sadly there is a double standard with the use of the -a ending and the -er ending.

Both are wrong imo.

7/16/2011 9:04:41 PM

there absolutely is a contextual difference between the two. kind of like when i call someone my "bro," i'm not talking to my actual brother. well, not unless my brother is wearing an upside down visor and buying me jaeger bombs.

7/16/2011 9:10:42 PM

^thank you

anyways, "redneck" is only an insult depending on the tone you speak it with. "nigger" is always a negative term. whether or not "nigga" is any better is a different discussion.

7/16/2011 9:10:48 PM

What if I refer to a black man as a "good nigger?" I'M USING IT IN A POSITIVE CONTEXT, THEREFORE IT IS GOOD!

7/16/2011 9:25:59 PM

7/18/2011 12:28:02 AM

It's extremely unlikely that a black person calling another black person nigger/nigga to be implying "your race is inferior to mine." OTOH, this is the most common context for a white person to use the same term.

It's pretty easy to understand.

It's like some people are BURSTING at the seams to be able to go around calling black people niggers... if only they could find a good justification.

hint: 99.999% of the time there is none. Just don't do it.

Redneck could be a racist term depending on context, but as someone pointed out in another thread, it doesn't have the same social/historical force behind it. At the end of the day, if you're a white male, you STILL get all the benefits in society.

NCSU and its student body have found one. Free Speech. It pisses me off to no end that these self righteous idiots are devaluing my education with this racist publicity. No employer is gonna want to recruit at a school that produces bigoted idiots. You would think a school with 30000 students, that advertises itself as diverse would want to stop this dumbshit. But no they promote it, print it in a orientation book, and refuse to punish or change any rules. FUCK STATE

On a brighter note. ITT I exposed TWW women as complete idiots. They were indifferent to the word nigger. I drop bitch and fag a few times and all hell breaks loose.

7/18/2011 12:43:15 AM

No you didn't. Those same women that you mock would readily turn their anger towards anyone who made racist remarks on this forum just as they turned against you for your own bullshit. You're just too closed minded to see it. But yeah, keep burning bridges and offending people. It's sure to start working any time now.

7/18/2011 12:57:27 AM

No none of them turned against the one cracking racist jokes. So I proved my point. Its only offensive when its aimed at you. This thread was a complete waste of time. And why should I care about burning bridges with people I don't know/ care to know.

Saying nigger is only impressive if you do it like Krammer. You know face to face, man to man, none of the E thug, tunnel thug bitch shit you people do.

Because the example you set as a human being has far more of an impact than words on a website ever could by themselves.

7/18/2011 1:09:21 AM

hmmm, So calling a bitch a bitch is worse than distributing 1500 copies of a book with nigger in it? Anybody offended by my language has the right to embrace the language and smile, say thank you and shake my hand.

Listen up, child. TWW isn't as private as you might think it is. Act a fool if you want... but more people read TWW than you might think. Things that you post here WILL come back to haunt you. Also, not to sound like your dad or anything.... but.... you should always strive to be the best person you can be.

NC State SHOULD or should NOT have "nigger" on their marketing materials?

7/18/2011 1:20:52 AM

Its not marketing material... its some damn traditions pamphlet given to incoming freshman that the new SBP came up with last year when she was on the SG traditions committee.

It should allow free expression in the tunnel. It should not include certain instances of free expression in its marketing material official literature.

[Edited on July 18, 2011 at 3:03 AM. Reason : .]

7/18/2011 3:03:08 AM

Its totally supported by TWW. Only I spoke against it. Yes I was able to inspire some others to speak out but that was because I turned the hate on them. People only have a problem with something if its aimed at them. I'd say 10% of all state students think its wrong. But in true utilitarian fashion the happiness and freedom of the majority trumps the happiness of the minority.
