I don’t get people who get offended when other people are offended by racial slurs.
Like, you’re not even the one being targeted — why are you volunteering as tribute for the bigot brigade?
I love pointing out when I’m being racist toward white people. It always gets the white crowd giggling and nodding along, like they’ve been waiting their whole lives to be “one of the good ones.”
Then they hit me with that gem:
“You can’t be racist to your own race.”
Guy. Buddy. You most certainly can; and you probably fucking are.
Internalized bias is the most boring plot twist in human history.
And honestly…
why do you want to say racial slurs so bad?
Are you that creatively bankrupt?
You could invent new insults — fresh ones — custom-tailored to the person being a dick in front of you.
Put some fucking craftsmanship into your hate speech.
At least try to be original while you’re being awful.
