Recently I've noticed a lot of my Asian friends seem to think it's okay for them to say the word "nigga" and get away with it. Personally, I couldn't care less. But it's when the people start saying the word we use to call slaves, ******, when I start to take notice.

What are your opinions on this? Is it okay for people to use racial slurs such as "nigga" or "chink" and get away with it?

It's pretty cringe when Asians say that kina shit.

Word is a word, its sad that people give greater power to what the word means than actually let people use whatever they want because they feel some sort of an attachment to it, its like saying white man can't play GTA San Andreas because the game is consisting with the word nigga.

I use it sometimes, especially when I am not recording a gameplay and/or live streaming, I do not give a flying fuck about the past that I had no involvement with, nor I was in any way or possible part of, people are so fucking attached what happened to them back when slavery was so legal that many government assholes used it, just because they had the past of it, its a motherfucking sad excuse to use when telling people what to use and what not to use, its like saying, you can't say ****** when there is gay friend nearby, if people are really that fucking butt hurt, then they can simply ignore the ones that use it!

Don't give power to a word. Context is also important. "******" or "Chink" are words that shouldn't be said though.

Asians tend to say "nigga" a lot but it means something different in Chinese I believe:

It's more about having respect rather than them trying to control you. Like you might not have a problem with it which is cool, but you don't know other will react to it, and who knows they might even knock you out over it. If it's on the internet who cares, but in real life and in public you should be a little bit mindful. That's my opinion anyways.

No, I know, but there are some people who really care about what is said on the internet, for an example, remember what Pewps said during his live stream on Pubg? He literally said ****** over the heat of the moment, and then and there his backslash came in tenfold, its like using some "racist" word / slur against white people and i get triggered over it on the webs or in real life.

"What are your opinions on this? Is it okay for people to use racial slurs such as "nigga" or "chink" and get away with it?"

It's obviously not okay for people to use the racial slurs. The fact is there's not a lot that can be done about it on the internet at-least. These slurs are used as much as they are because of that exact reason, most people feel pretty secure and safe under a persona over the internet. IRL there are plenty of ways to handle it...

Yeah my friends are the same

They would wait for me by their 2004 ford pickup truck at the school parking lot wearing their raver jeans and puka shell necklaces and say wussup bluuud and do gang signs

Hey, Nigga, This ain't gonna work

lmao trigger warning

The Korean language has a word that is pronounced "neega" which means "you". So here's a sentence:

"Did you do that?" would translate to: "Neega hetseo?"

So it's kind of a word you use a lot, I guess it's not used intentionally though. But Korean kids who speak English understand the meaning behind the word that sound so familiar to the word for "you" in Korean.

A word is only a word until you give it a meaning

People get offended by such words because they give it an offensive meaning and want to feel apart of a minority group so they can play that card

Learned something from this video haha

[Jacky]

I like saying nigga and ******s to my friends

But that is with people who are like me

Usually I wouldn't say it when the other person is a sjw

[Scammer's Sheep]

A related question is, is it okay to say the world ******?
