Honestly, black people as a collective need to "come out" of that word:
https://www.thecoli.com/threads/petite-pawg-calling-a-brother-the-n-word.451101/ I honestly love videos like this. :manny: It's proof that black people did NOT take the power out of the word. Isn't that the entire point of us calling OURSELVES that word? Wasn't that supposedly the plan...

Despite black people supposedly "taking back' the word, it's still an extremely insulting word to some, specifically those of you who IDENTIFY with the word.
Generally speaking, a "n1gga" is a subhuman. The lowest on the totem pole in society. Nobody respects or want to be around "n1ggas" and yet a segment of society chooses to call themselves that degrading and dehumanizing word. It's truly fascinating when you think about it.
In my world... ANYBODY of any race can be a "n1gga" if they choose to be. I'm personally not a "n1gga" because I don't identify with the word. The word doesn't hurt or offend me.
I wouldn't be mad one bit if the rest of the world became the new "n1ggas", while black people moved on and no longer identified with the word.
The crazy thing about that tho is if black people stopping saying it....the rest of the world would too (except for the hardcore racist).
It would no longer be "cool" to degrade yourself.
