I wish I could be more specific with my choices but only 10 slots so this is the best I got. Also context doesn't really matter here, even if you only say it when singing along vote yes.

Yeah I know quite a few people who say it but are far from racist. It really depends on context.

Id say black folk that use it are taking a word that would be used to put them down and doing a 180 with it. Thats empowering in that sense, I reckon

I'm white and voted no but it's not completely true. It's a punch line to a joke that I'll occasionally tell and the shock value is important for the joke to work.

Why wouldn't you use it. The afflicted group uses it themselves. It would be total racism to determine the right to use certain words solely on the color of someone's skin.

Yes. Just like any other word. It is just that, a word. Its context and who it's used towards that make words offensive.

You would be the one to post something like this. White privilege isn't real, that's why saying it makes you an idiot and why people don't want it said. Its pushing a false narrative.

I can use any word i please. Am i saying its not offensive? No. Using it in a hateful way towards a black person is obviously wrong considering the history of the word.

But saying i can't use it because of the colour of my skin is a sad and ridiculous concept.

When using a term like white privilege you are stereotyping a entire race of people. Pushing an ignorant and false narrative.
