I'm pretty sure he called you a "can" to prove a point about the term "cac". and your response solidified that point
Yes, and you agree right? "can" and "cac" are equal to spic, right?

wasn't your argument that "cac" and "cracker" aren't offensive?
You don't answer a question with a question.

My argument is that the term cac/cracker is not the same as a term like spic. Any term can be offensive if used in an offensive context. Terms like ****** and spic are offensive regardless of the context.

Are you offended?

I think that water's under the bridge at this point. I have no problem with being offended. my issue is with people telling me I shouldn't be offended, when their intentions were to offend. I mean I'm all for free speech, but be a man and stand by what you say

it's just a form of argument that annoys me. just because you can twist words around to resemble a legit point, doesn't make that a legit point. especially when you know you're making a dishonest argument (the rhetorical 'you', not you fam)

so it's never a 'term of endearment'?

Well your form of arguing which is to answer a question with a question is definitely annoying and dishonest. You whining about how anyone else argues is a joke. What don't you take your own advice, be a man and answer the question. There's a reason that you refuse to answer my question in favor of asking me stupid little questions that you should already know the answer to.

I don't know what it means for those terms to be "equal". they are similar, and are often used with similar intentions

now would you like to rationalize how a term is a offensive "regardless of context" and a 'term of endearment' at the same time?

people need to stop trying to do mental gymnastics in order to justify the usage. it IS used in a derogatory way, it IS based on skin color and because of that, it IS a racist term. there's no need to stretch the argument beyond that point because it's really that simple.

just man up and say you like it use or whatever...just kill the bullshyt reasoning y'all try to apply to it.

CAC means cracker ass cracker

the word cracker comes from the slave master cracking the whip.

CAC is a historically accurate term, i know CAC's dont like to be reminded that their ancestors were barbarians, but the truth hurts. :yeshrug:

This is nonsense. Please explain how cracker and ****** are used with similar intentions. The term ****** is used to dehumanized a race of people, the intent of the word is to denote inferiority regarding black people. Again, explain how cracker is similar.

****** is not and has never been a term of endearment. Some black people have chosen to create a variation of the word and flip it as a slang term that has many different meanings amongst themselves, but none of that changes the original word or the history of racism associated with it.

Nobody's doing gymnastics, or has to justify anything. Get over yourself, who are you? I could easily call you a cracker and say "F you if you dont like it, get mad". This is a discussion though, and we are simply explaining our position that the term in ad of itself is not racist. Your insecurity and need to dismiss our position because of hurt feelings, takes away from the discussion. If anyone needs to man up it's you.

:what:

man, I give up... I think you took the crown from FunkDoc

Well you already knew that you were a mental midget, should've known that you were biting off more than you could chew. I ask you a simple question and you talk about giving up. Beat it, hurry up and leave the discussion.
