    N***** used to just be the word for black people, coming from the word Latin “niger”([ˈnɪɡɛr]) and meaning the color black, almost every Romance language still uses it, but I would strongly suggest not using it in the USA.

        yes, I agree that we should all be allowed to say N***** because the only reason we can’t is because of Woke speech police! and while we are at it, why should anyone be upset with me that I point out the fact that the Holocaust never happened, and it was all orchestrated by (((them))) and how we should find a solution to (((them))), perhaps a rather final one.

              How do I support the reactionary??? You are arguing against a strawman.

              The only thing I “dared” to say is that the original poster has a point. Stuff that no one cared if you said it in the past, can be considered a bigoted thing to say at another time.

              And people are losing their minds trying to frame me as someone who argues that misgendering someone is okay or something. Wtf?

                the thing the original poster “dared” to say is a commonly accepted reactionary talking point, even with your use of " “dared” " is already highly politically charged.

                if you do your best to defend the reactionary, well let’s just say you do need to be somewhat on his side if you are going to do it this vehemently.
