Why do many Kiwi’s use the N word?

[MW 590]

I noticed that the n word is used a lot on this site. People here don’t understand the taboo that only black people can say that word. Even racist politicians like Hillary Clinton know to use terms such as “super predator” instead of the n word.

So I am trying to figure out if the people here who use the word are actually racist or not. So I have made a poll on it.

Nigger this is the internet, fuck yo faggoty taboos.

 

[Recoil]

people can get away with 'abuses' of speech here that would have many of us in hot water IRL. Context is meaningless nowadays, look at cancel culture.

ETA: I'd bet a good number of the folks who marked "I am actually racist" on your poll are just doing it to fuck with you on the off chance you're a journalist.

If you want the actual answer, it's that this place is adjacent to sites like ED and 4chan and I'm willing to bet there's a lot of user overlap.

I don't use that word, I don't think I've ever had cause since I'd sooner call someone like that a cunt but it makes no sense to me how people are offended by a word they use themselves.

It amuses me how straight people look at me wide eyed when I call them faggots when they act like one, and most of them are too scared to question it.

Lol no. I doubt most of the people on this site are racist. We are all anonymous. Nobody cares whether or not you use it on an anonymous site and it can only be racially demeaning depending on the context in which it is used. Context is everything. And about 99.99% of the site use it in a joking context.

I'm a blackie and I don't find the N-word inherently demeaning as long as you look into the context its used. Michael Richards fucking up on stage is a perfect example of the misuse of the word as sort of an insult, even though his rage-out is some legendary shit, some comedy genius.

Most people use it in a joking context or just to refer to the person as "my nigga" in the same way someone would refer to someone as "listen, bud", so I don't see the problem as long as its used appropriately, just as any other slur. Words change over time.

This is a site dedicated to making fun of various ne'er-do-wells. Do you really think most users here care about the various sacred cows of "polite" society?

 

[CuntSnack]

Because many people consider it forbidden and taboo. If something is any of those things then people are going to fuck with it for a laugh.

Typical nigger thread

It's alright to be called a nigger.
It's alright to be called a faggot.

But when somebody is a niggerfaggot, you know they are the lowest of the low.

 

[Anonymous For This]

Because it's fun.

Combine the two into nigger-faggot for optimum effect and efficiency.

EDIT: Fucking nigger-faggot ninja'd me, got'damn.

Especially when they glow in the dark.

Because I listened to this song and it influenced me. I was powerless against the influence.

It's nice to blow off steam on the online, nigger

Uncle Ruckus told me that "Nigger just rolls off the tongue, the way sweat rolls of a nigger's forehead". I took that statement to heart. That's why I use the word. Also, I know it triggers the woke folk that lurk KF.
