DawkinsNumber4 09/09/17 10:19:20 AM #22:	Antifar posted... Supercuaco666 posted... Why is it pejorative when a white person says it, but friendly when a black person does? History and context. Language depends on context; it's how we understand that sometimes plane means "a level surface" and sometimes means "a metal flying machine." If a black person calls a white person the n word and then a white person returns the same statement with the same intent then the black person cannot cry about racism because they are promoting the concept that one person of one skin tone can do something and one person of another skin tone cannot do that same thing even with the same meaning and intent. This is a perfect example of racism and at that point that person is being racist and they lose all credibility on the matter. --- https://soundcloud.com/xsquader - http://youtube.com/xsquader http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1044-independent-politics - Independent Politics Community Board <cite>DawkinsNumber4 posted [p:886295229] in I'm not fr...
