In America, we learn the history of slavery. That black people were slaves treated like 3/5 of a person. We learn about segregation and jim crow.
So when an american says the n word, it is rightly that they know what they are doing and how evil the word is.

Europeans shouldn't be saying it either, but I am curious, how much do they know of that history?

For example, when pewdiepie say the n word in a heat of rage, did he just repeat a word dumb kids on cod spam or did he know what he was doing?

Like does sweden talk about jim crow? Probably not. Does sweden talk about american slavery? Maybe a little. I bet they don't cover segregation.

Any EU users have perspective on this?
To you is the word full of dark history or is it just something you are told makes americans flip out?
