@mewmew @icedquinn I never say the n-word because it’s very specific, and very harmful. Bitch is used universally, yes, and it’s also really not as negative and harmful. Really the n-word feels like nearly class of its own in most ways, it feels hateful where bitch is just rude.
I could say it, I’m the Queen of my own free speech server, after all. But I don’t because it’s rarely a productive thing to say, and I’m just not interested in using language that’s outright hateful. The k-word for Jewish people is another example of words that are hateful that I won’t use.
Now, the word isn’t always hateful, but it never is in good taste and doesn’t promote the kind of discourse that I prefer to take part in.
I’m of the opinion that when black people “took the word back” all they really did was perpetuate it back into common usage, and this was in error. It should have been left to rot as an anachronism.
