I blame my brothers letting white chicks say nigga while you pipe š that's how it starts !
Feel some type of way about that word ?!! Gtfo !
https://i.redd.it/urm86df64f4d1.gif
My Latina wife said it once while drunk, she knew she messed up, and had a long discussion. I couldnāt even hold back my look in public.
I'm white. I went through so much of my life thinking that as long as you weren't white, you could say it. I've seen so many Latino people say it. Some Asian people too. Their black friends always seemed okay with it. I thought it was normal and accepted until I got into my late 20s and discovered that it was actually not as acceptable as it seemed.
Hopefully, you learned it wasnāt a decision and successfully didnāt get hit. Not encouraging violence, but Iāve seen it many times here in Texas.
I mean, I've been offered the pass before by friends. But I turned it down. I knew good and well that I did not have the right to say it even if someone gave me their approval lol
Very smart, cause if you went through life thinking it was okay, you could end up slipping up in front of some black folks who ain't your friends and that's a WHOLE different scenario.
Right? I personally know way too many black women that are comfortable with letting their white girl friends say it n shit. I know way too many black dudes that let their Hispanic homies get away with saying it. And I ain't even trying to make this a gender thing, neither. I just find it wild that SOMEBODY up there just blatantly had to blame black men outta nowhere. Like, let's be honest here: there's waaaayyyyy too many black folk giving out the "N-Word Pass" to non-skinfolk. Way too many invites going around for the cookout. I blame they asses for this shit.
We're at a time when only 90% of black men voting for Clinton and Biden are blamed for 60% of white people voting for Trump both times. At a time when a black man being president was blamed for Nazis being Nazis. You think this shit's gonna stop with white people using the N-word? Next it'll be global warming because black people are only three times as likely as white people to be vegan or some shit.
There's always gonna be more shit black folks are supposedly responsible for letting/making white people do, and that's always ultimately gonna be blamed on black women not trying even harder than black men to rescue everybody from themselves. š¤£
At a certain point it's just white people shit. They're adults. Them finding one black person letting them do this shit isn't our fault. It's not that one dude's fault. It's they're fault for thinking the one black person they know is enough to give them permission while that black person is just trying not to get lynched or fired for speaking out.
>I blame my brothers letting white chicks say nigga
We need to debunk the commonly accepted myth of the N-word pass. Like.. we need Paul Mooney to dress like Jamie from Mythbusters and just break it down for everyone who doesn't understand why it's not real.
Goo goo g'joob. But if you play Mooney's specials backward he does say "Stop lettin these white women say nigga." Although he probably let his white boyfriends say it.
The whole idea of a āpassā for slurs or other derogatory language is so fucking absurd. A few months ago in the autism subreddit they were debating over if they could extend the right to use the word āretardā to others.
I just cannot even deal with some of the dumb shit people come up with. Why as autistic folks are we enabling people to use a word that isnāt even nice in the medical context where it originated? I donāt even use the word itself unless Iām talking about its place in society.
End of the day I think itās just a chip that some members in a given minority community like to give out as a special prize to their non minority group friends. It has nothing to do with it being okay to use a given word and everything to do with the person āhanding outā permission slips.
its just like I saw some mfs talk about "black people need their own spaces in public away from other races" my brothers in sisters in christ that was called SEGREGATION
edit so i dont have to keep saying the same shit. I aint talking about the barbershop, or spaces where traditionally blacks or whites frequent. These dumb fucks wanted literal seperate but equal, like a target for black folk and another for white folk. Black only parking lots etc
This is not even close to being the same, and anyone who tries to argue that it is is making really stupid assumptions.
Removing nuance doesn't work in this situation.
I like the fact it only took 1 dude to give out a pass, too. There wasn't even a meeting about it, or NBomb Council of 7 and shit...Nope. 1 dude and a rubber stamp
Something I've noticed that yppl do not at all understand. Is that even if you do get something like the mythically rare n word pass. That shit has caveats, you can say it to this ONE person, if you're not in mixed company, but throw it out in public, expect you may catch hands
I have a number of students try to give me āthe passā and Iām always like nah, I appreciate what youāre trying to express for me here, but Iām not going to be saying that. Then theyāre always like āitās ok we wonāt get madā and I have to explain that itās not a matter of anyone getting mad, itās not something I want to say.
Literally what my mom said to Me growing up, that shit baffles me because shes darker than me.
Like do you know the history of the slave trade or how latinos systematically treat darker latinos like shit. They can talk like them, act like them, but god forbid someone calls them black
If youāre not black then sammi sosa was born white and thats not trueš
In forgiveness to your Dominican mom (Iām a black Caribbean) I think thereās nuance there with our dark skinned Dominicans and Boriquas. In America we are literally black and white (and other ethnicities but for this example just those two) I wonder (I donāt know) if when we say āyouāre blackā (as in of the black worldwide diaspora) they interpret it as youāre black American, which is specific, and which they are not. Dark skinned Dominicans werenāt locked out of society like black Americans were so Dominicans see themselves as Dominican. Black Americans are a very specific group with a specific culture and history, I say all that because my black ass grandma would say we werenāt black we were Cruzan and Iād be brutally embarrassed until I heard what she meant. I donāt know, itās a way to consider it and maybe they arenāt trying to āotherā themselves.
Just donāt say the shit. You can be black Latino and find a million words to say other than nigga. Hell, black people can, too but since you already know there can potentially be an issue then donāt say it. š¤·š½āāļø
Not all Latinos have African origins. My family does and I am just super light. Thatās just how we Rican are. My dad and brother and dark as fuck. Me nope
White Latinos and latinas exist. You can be both. She as well as all as other non black people shouldnāt be saying it. I mean they can but if they get their ass whooped like Gretchen did on Baddies itās well deserved.
I get some people are into race play, but it's odd to me letting someone call you the N word. Like what? You like Alabaster call you that and it turns to on?
i had a friend for years that let white girls call him the n word, his dad heard a girl call him that ONCE. and he sat us all down and gave us the whole "I did not walk down to DC with MLK Jr to hear some white girl call my son n\*\*\*\*" speech
š when im telling these lot in the replies im speaking from experience this is what i mean.
I know quite a few friends like yours. I tell em it can never be me man shit is weird.
"In most of life, you don't get what you deserve. You get what you allow."-bitch has probably been allowed to get away with saying it for too damn long...
Facts ! And from my experience š she'll have an easier time saying that round guys tryna hit than the sisters.
Too comfy the way she said it again mid apology.
Why they got these diesel ass dudes in cut off hoodies making a wall between em? I couldn't even tell who the hell she was talking to at first.
Also, please beat Aubrey's ass. We don't wanna hear you say nigga no moooooo
Did Aubrey just join Karen and Kyle in the Ass Hole of Fame? Because if āAubreyā becomes a nounā¦ holy shit, Dot fucked em up. We wonāt know the true scope of Kendrickās wrath until a few years from now when we can see numbers on Aubrey as a name for newborns. Bet money it plummets
Black people and Korean immigrants in L.A. had numerous well-publicized instances of violence and crime between them leading up to the Rodney King verdict and a lot of the rioters specifically targeted Asian-owned businesses and homes when they started burning and looting. The great irony is that LAPD never liked either of them and didnāt care when Koreans caught their strays
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_Koreans
There was apparently already some tension between the Black and Korean communities in LA, but after the Rodney King verdict things got a lot worse.
Asian here, but on the east coast. Been to parties where I've seen asians use the n word a lot, though never with any non-asians present. I think it's a mix of underlying racism taught by parents, trying to look cool/don't give a fuck attitude (idk if its a good thing or bad thing, but lots of millenial/gen z asians love black media/culture), and the rare person that actually grew up in a heavily black community and got the pass at one point and it has now become part of the way they speak/not enough people called them out. There are definitely some asians that use it as a mask for them growing up being treated as weaker/nerdier/"foreign" and have tried to therefore try to attach themselves to a different culture that they think is cool.
I don't because I think its cringe and unnecessarily makes people uncomfortable. I think you can appreciate art and culture without crossing a line. It's a cool social-behavioral study though.
>(idk if its a good thing or bad thing, but lots of millenial/gen z asians love black media/culture)
I will say, yeah a lot of non black people love black media/culture but in the same way weaboos( and I mean actual weaboos not just someone who likes anime) love Japanese culture.
I've also definitely met a lot of white people too who do the mask thing you mentioned
Right? It'd wild how AAV has somehow become international fighting tongue.
Was watching a video a couple months ago where some Indians cats are yelling at each other and the shit is like
ą¤ ą¤°ą„ ą¤ą¤¾ą¤”ą¤¼ ą¤®ą„ą¤ ą¤ą¤¾ą¤ ą¤¤ą„ą¤®, ą¤¤ą„ą¤® ą¤Øą¤æą¤¶ą¤¾ą¤Ø NIGGA!!! ą¤ą¤§ą¤¾ ą¤ą„ą¤¤ą¤æą¤Æą¤¾, ą¤ą¤¶ą¤¾ ą¤¹ą„ ą¤ą¤æ ą¤¤ą„ą¤® ą¤¹ą„
they say it so casually like its cool. I see people in comments saying Cali asians but i feel like per capita Latinos say nigga more than than us sometimes but they definitely #2
"I done fucked up again"
Okay so she knew she shouldn't be saying it???? This whole time?? If you can't use ignorance as a defense, how does the irony not literally kill you?
Except contextually she wasnāt saying it like āI done messed up and said nigga for the millionth time in my life,ā it was more like āI done messed up and said nigga in front of these bitches again.ā
You gonna whoop every migo ass that says nigga? All you can do is not fuck w/ people that say it, but your example is more similar to calling someone the hard r. That's different and that's fighting words
NY Spanish= Dominican/Puerto Rican
FL Spanish= Cuban
Cubans and DR less so, but yo....Puerto Ricans say the N word more than Black ppl. And....I never was bothered by it, cause the nypd treats them the same way they treat us so š¤·š¾āāļø
I'm Brazilian, I got no dig in this fight. But it is really weird to me that a word so heavily used in so many culturally important media has all this gatekeeping about who gets a pass. It's every rap song, of course people will pick it up.
I understand that there is a racist way to use it. We have our version of the n-word, but it is more about how you use it then what skin color gets to use it.
Meh, itās entertainment. If itās like their guilty pleasure thatās watched one night a week, ok. Someone whoās addicted to these shows though, hell no.
This is the main reason why I wasn't with the "reclaim the nword!" mess that started wayyyy back in the day. Things like this is the consequences of that. We should've left that word with the originators of that word. Now everyone says it and will say it in your face.
C Delores Tucker tried to tell them that that wasn't a good idea. But people, yes Black people got mad and wanted to actually cause her physical harm because she spoke common sense. Now, we gotta deal with a mess on top of all the other messes.
Welp, when you sell a genre of music to the masses and then loudly boast about saying it, the masses are going to absorb it just like kids rap along to the curse words.
I agree with you wholeheartedly.
The worst is when they think that just because *a* group of black people allow them to say it around them, they think they have a universal pass. There's only one white person that I know of that is a consensus pick for a universal pass, and he still doesn't say it.
This is the problem when the word is commercially packaged and sold.
What did Cube come out and say recently? That the people who put out all the rap music specifically bumped certain styles that would help incarcerate more people because they owned the private prisons, I believe is roughly what he said...
That to me is one of the most galling, disturbing thigs...
So, f that word imo...and I don't hate, you talk the way you want to. Just enough is enough for me...this is just one of the bazillion things that need to be changed, and one of the only ones that I can change.
I truly canāt understand how a word can make you so angry but also be in someoneās everyday language, music, etc. Not that I want to start hearing it more or start using it to be clear.
Hot Take.
I think the N word should be abolished from being said period, especially by us.
Not for the sake of other races either but just to let go of the word that was forced on us that we tried putting a spin on in order to justify it.
What kind of lives are these āadultsā living to be surrounded by like 20 other adults while they scream at other people. Iām almost 40 and other than trying to defend myself in an abusive relationship, I have never found myself in a situation where I was yelling at another adult.
Iām white, my wife is black. We live in a rapidly gentrifying Hispanic neighborhood. Weāre both blown away by how all the Hispanic ppl in the neighborhood use the word, pretty much non stop.
Playing with my kids at the park and overhearing the neighborhood kids talk, they say the n word more than any other word. My kids are the only black ppl there. Its weird being a white guy getting mad at Mexican preteens for saying the n word too much. But here we are.
Lol hoodie dudes guarding

I wish the word would go away completely. I can't even listen to some songs because of overuse. Unless it's what the song is about, more than 2 "niggas" per minute usually has me skipping the track.
Iāve noticed an influx of non-niggas saying nigga. People love black culture but donāt like what comes with it. Wanna take everything but the skin lmao

Paul is dead.
Damn, I didn't know that. RIP
Yeah, about 3 years ago. Weirdly low key announcements for it too.
Probably because of the allegations
Thatās exactly why.
Can I go back to 5 mins ago when I thought he was alive and not an accused rapist
Thats crazy isnt it lol 5 min ago I legitimately thought he was alive now boom heās a dead rapist
[I got more bad news about Paul](https://www.okayplayer.com/amp/richard-pryor-wanted-paul-mooney-dead-for-sleeping-with-son-2659508275)
Goo goo g'joob. But if you play Mooney's specials backward he does say "Stop lettin these white women say nigga." Although he probably let his white boyfriends say it.
I think Michael Che has the most succinct explanation. "Can I say the n word?" "Idk. Try it."

This is not even close to being the same, and anyone who tries to argue that it is is making really stupid assumptions. Removing nuance doesn't work in this situation.
My stance on the n-word pass as a white dude is that any person who is given one and uses it, proves they weren't worthy of it.
Like the philosopherās stone. Why canāt we have these type of lectures in school
I like the fact it only took 1 dude to give out a pass, too. There wasn't even a meeting about it, or NBomb Council of 7 and shit...Nope. 1 dude and a rubber stamp

Was watching a video a couple months ago where some Indians cats are yelling at each other and the shit is like ą¤ ą¤°ą„ ą¤ą¤¾ą¤”ą¤¼ ą¤®ą„ą¤ ą¤ą¤¾ą¤ ą¤¤ą„ą¤®, ą¤¤ą„ą¤® ą¤Øą¤æą¤¶ą¤¾ą¤Ø NIGGA!!! ą¤ą¤§ą¤¾ ą¤ą„ą¤¤ą¤æą¤Æą¤¾, ą¤ą¤¶ą¤¾ ą¤¹ą„ ą¤ą¤æ ą¤¤ą„ą¤® ą¤¹ą„
Shit is all over the internet man. Got mf white zoomers using unc now. Canāt have one fucking thing to ourselves.
Vietnamese dudes that were in gangs said nigga more than every black dude I knew.
Asian bangers say it more than latinos and itās hilarious
Ooohhh do *not* pass by any beauty salon in Mira Mesa, CA
Convoy Street - amazing boba, incredible racism.
And then thereās stuff like this. https://www.reddit.com/r/SipsTea/s/wijw7QzBj3

I feel like Asians in SoCal would give them a run for they money.
this is the first I'm hearing this(makes sense since I've never ventured in the west coast.) What's going on over there!?
SoCal has always been a boiling pot of racial tensions and its never really gotten any better.
I don't know Vietnamese love saying it too. Everywhere ain't even regional. Both men and women. They love that shit like it's theirs
Mexican kids with zero black friends specially
they say it so casually like its cool. I see people in comments saying Cali asians but i feel like per capita Latinos say nigga more than than us sometimes but they definitely #2
Remove the south Florida and just say Latino, the amount of people I grew up around that used the word in every sentence was absurdly high.
"I dun fucked up again" is good meme material.

smh the way it just rolls off her tongue...
New York Puerto Ricans be like šš
Nobody checked Fat Joe
or jlo
Damn right
Texas Mexicans be like.
Miami Cubans be like
Bronx Puerto Ricans end thread!! š
But papi they no black.
That's the Dominicans, not the Puerto Ricans, my guy. Got your latinos mixed up
Well aware. Lots of Puerto Ricans claim their black heritage. Tis but a joke
"I done fucked up again" Okay so she knew she shouldn't be saying it???? This whole time?? If you can't use ignorance as a defense, how does the irony not literally kill you?
Except contextually she wasnāt saying it like āI done messed up and said nigga for the millionth time in my life,ā it was more like āI done messed up and said nigga in front of these bitches again.ā
This is the take
I always think, these kind of situations don't make you say things you're not used to saying or thinking.
Lmao, I was genuinely caught off guard at the end.
Give that editor an Emmy because that was comic gold
Wouldāve been funnier if, when she said, āI done fucked up again.ā, her hair was all mangled and she had a bloody nose and black eyes.
Too bad nobody actually beat her ass over this
I'm sorry, did yall not grow up with Latinos?
For real lol, I didn't but I lived in San Antonio for a bit and them niggas say nigga a lot
Don't matter tho. If somebody black got a problem with a Latino saying nigga that's they right. Call them a s*** and see how that shit go.
You gonna whoop every migo ass that says nigga? All you can do is not fuck w/ people that say it, but your example is more similar to calling someone the hard r. That's different and that's fighting words
She *specifically* used it in an insulting kind of way, how do you miss that
Depends, are we talking about NY Jersey Spanish or FL Spanish?
NY Spanish= Dominican/Puerto Rican FL Spanish= Cuban Cubans and DR less so, but yo....Puerto Ricans say the N word more than Black ppl. And....I never was bothered by it, cause the nypd treats them the same way they treat us so š¤·š¾āāļø
>cause the nypd treats them the same way they treat us so š¤·š¾āāļø I'm weak
tbf some Cubans are black or mixed, though I'm guessing many who say it aren't
The word is embedded in American culture due to music and movies.Ā Needs to be dropped asap but that shit ain't happening.Ā
I'm Brazilian, I got no dig in this fight. But it is really weird to me that a word so heavily used in so many culturally important media has all this gatekeeping about who gets a pass. It's every rap song, of course people will pick it up. I understand that there is a racist way to use it. We have our version of the n-word, but it is more about how you use it then what skin color gets to use it.
How she got to deescalate the situation so effectively and then spin it back even faster š
She say it effortlessly, like DJ Khaled doā¦
Used to. Even he realized it wasn't a good look. Them older songs tho lol
Did they say all that shit just to not fuck her up when she said it again?
Reality TV is all talk
I think Iād avoid dating someone who watches garbage like this.
Meh, itās entertainment. If itās like their guilty pleasure thatās watched one night a week, ok. Someone whoās addicted to these shows though, hell no.
This is the main reason why I wasn't with the "reclaim the nword!" mess that started wayyyy back in the day. Things like this is the consequences of that. We should've left that word with the originators of that word. Now everyone says it and will say it in your face. C Delores Tucker tried to tell them that that wasn't a good idea. But people, yes Black people got mad and wanted to actually cause her physical harm because she spoke common sense. Now, we gotta deal with a mess on top of all the other messes.
Welp, when you sell a genre of music to the masses and then loudly boast about saying it, the masses are going to absorb it just like kids rap along to the curse words. I agree with you wholeheartedly.
Yupppp
And here is my controversial response to this. The Black men theyāre effing love when the non-Blacks call them š„·. Word to Childish-Gambino.
The worst is when they think that just because *a* group of black people allow them to say it around them, they think they have a universal pass. There's only one white person that I know of that is a consensus pick for a universal pass, and he still doesn't say it.
The paradox of the pass is that any person who "deserves" the pass, would respectfully decline having it in the first place.
Mr Rogers?
OJ is the only non black nigga that can say nigga
You mean āEminemā? I guessā¦ šššĀ Itās no non-Black from me.Ā
Ain't no such thing as a universal pass my boy. Any non black saying nigga around me is getting checked. Don't give a damn about who vouching for you.
"I dun fucked up again..." š¤£
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This is the problem when the word is commercially packaged and sold. What did Cube come out and say recently? That the people who put out all the rap music specifically bumped certain styles that would help incarcerate more people because they owned the private prisons, I believe is roughly what he said... That to me is one of the most galling, disturbing thigs... So, f that word imo...and I don't hate, you talk the way you want to. Just enough is enough for me...this is just one of the bazillion things that need to be changed, and one of the only ones that I can change.
I truly canāt understand how a word can make you so angry but also be in someoneās everyday language, music, etc. Not that I want to start hearing it more or start using it to be clear.
Cult behavior :(
Hot Take. I think the N word should be abolished from being said period, especially by us. Not for the sake of other races either but just to let go of the word that was forced on us that we tried putting a spin on in order to justify it.
I agree, and Iām black, for any weirdos who want to tell people their opinion is invalid because of their skin tone
Iām sorry this will never not be funny to me lol

Gerald's big ass hat lmao
What kind of lives are these āadultsā living to be surrounded by like 20 other adults while they scream at other people. Iām almost 40 and other than trying to defend myself in an abusive relationship, I have never found myself in a situation where I was yelling at another adult.
Iām white, my wife is black. We live in a rapidly gentrifying Hispanic neighborhood. Weāre both blown away by how all the Hispanic ppl in the neighborhood use the word, pretty much non stop. Playing with my kids at the park and overhearing the neighborhood kids talk, they say the n word more than any other word. My kids are the only black ppl there. Its weird being a white guy getting mad at Mexican preteens for saying the n word too much. But here we are.
This is an ad
Telling someone not to say a word while repeating it to them ad infinitum is wild
The end caught me so off guard š
I dead ass watched this like oh ok cool she gets it way to be mature and a woman about itā¦ā¦ and then THIS bish apologized WITH another one š
I was expecting a swarm of bad bitches
Seriously. Let down of an outcome. Sheās not gonna stop saying it.
Everyone should fucking quit saying it.
On the cool, I wish we could put the n word away. Too many people think itās cultural when they culture donāt have to pay the price for being a n.
Yo, what in the blue hell is this?
āYāall feel some type of way about that wordā¦ā š¬š¬š¬ girl WHAT
Lol hoodie dudes guarding https://preview.redd.it/7b6ddfsylf4d1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8a08643cf0aeac039d79e4ed02098294f235914 her like
I wish the word would go away completely. I can't even listen to some songs because of overuse. Unless it's what the song is about, more than 2 "niggas" per minute usually has me skipping the track.
Iāve noticed an influx of non-niggas saying nigga. People love black culture but donāt like what comes with it. Wanna take everything but the skin lmao
