It’s targeted at that group even when you apply it to someone who’s not in that group. If a bunch of white people call each other the n word, is that acceptable for you? If someone goes through the streets yelling it, at no one in particular, is that okay? Intent and target does play a role, that’s obvious, but they don’t excuse the use in general.
Did you even read the og comments? We were fucking talking about deer, this never needed to be anything more than that.
If someone wants to yell the n-word up and down a public street, then yeah, it is entirely within their right to do so. They’re probably gonna look like an annoying crackhead, but still. Now, if they were to direct that word towards someone with the intention of causing harm or use it in a loaded situation, then that would be an entirely different story. Skin colour really shouldn’t have anything to do with any part of this, there is a solid argument to be made that race doesn’t even exist (racism and all that very much do exist, but lets not go down this rabbit hole) and really shouldn’t even be a factor when determining acceptability of something.
