Racial Slurs

Re: Racial Slurs

Let's just close the discussion with facts:


Everyone perceives racism in a different way, same goes for the usage of words

Nobody will ever see eye to eye on the matter. Not for a long time.

Re: Racial Slurs

You can argue all you want that words by themselves don't mean anything. Nietzsche made that argument long ago. Of course, logically, words are simply a collection of letters or characters that form a recognizable sequence.

However, in order for language to have any significance or use, meaning must be attached to the words. And the truth is that there is meaning attached to racial slurs. And the meaning attached to those words implies disrespect to whole races of people. This is just as true as how that thing in my kitchen that makes delicious toast is called a toaster.

But we know why you want to use these words. You just want to troll people who get offended by language. People who do this have never had real problems in their lives. If you did, you would understand that some language is unacceptable.

Everything here ^
