Current Events > Some 14 or 15 year old called me the n word today on overwatch

(+) Yeah! (+)

Been hearing it since Halo 2 but it still kinda catches me when people throw it out so causally, hell, we had been partied up for a few hours. So I thinks, how is this dude even racist, he was born after September 11th, Obama is likely the first president he remembers. These are the future bosses and lawyers of my son, smh. Where do young folk get so much hate for. And how do they hide it so well.

Hope you reported him. Maybe he'll get suspended or banned and taste some form of punishment for the first time in his life.

Hear it all the time.

The Hard R however feels so painful to hear.

Yea it always catches me off guard, ruins my vibe immediately. Just a "really man" type deal. Shit sucks

Just hit them back with the stereotypical comeback; You're mom wouldn't have me any other way.

Some 14 or 15 year old verbally kicked your ass. Your 14 year old self would be disappointed.

Most of my ex girlfriends do this to rile people up on PSN.

He came to cry about it on a forum so it doesnt matter what was said, his ass was turned into mashed potatoes by a little boy.

>found the edgelord who thinks "IT'S JUST WORDS"

I deeply regret my teenage edgelord years. Casual "joking" racism is way too prevalent in dumb kids who don't actually understand the weight their words can hold and the harm they can do.

according to ce, you are now morally justified to carry out vigilante vengeance and ruin/destroy the individual's life along with his family.

Maybe, just sharing my thoughts bro. Shit sucks still hearing this shit from kids as an adult. Makes you think it's never going to end, just when you think it's getting better. They learning this type of shit, and it'll be passed on to their kids.

Teenagers on xbox live are like an echo chamber of stupidity.
---

TC, I'm glad you're Ok now. I know an experience like that can be very traumatizing for some people and it sucks that you had to endure it. Hopefully that person will learn eventually that their words can be very hurtful and that they should feel shame in their heart.

try being an outed girl player in any online versus game

either a bunch of impotent male crybabies will swarm to take you down first just so your potential victory over them doesn't make them lose sleep at night

or the braindead white knights will "spare" you for last and then bitch when you go on the assault...in a pvp game

I was called the N word and I'm not even black. >_>

Lol at all the virtue signaling itt

Welcome to Trump's Amerika.

That's why I do not at all miss chatting with randoms in competitive games. I exclusively play multiplayer with friends in party chat, nowadays.

Pvp games are magnets for over-competitive rage junkies. They're going to say whatever they figure will trigger you, especially when the player base is over 30% minors. Teens, in particular, have a lot of bottled up rage.

There's also a lot of adult gamers who have been stockpiling that rage since they were teens, eager to dish it out on any target they can legally get away with trashing.

The dude was on my team tho, we were winning, he just slung it out there lol.

Thanks to the internet, being a little shithead is seen as cool and fun.

Did he ever hint at why?
Did he do anything else that seemed antagonistic during the game?

You're right it will never end. Not as long as the word is given power

i love seeing this
"maybe black people should just not be offended by a word created to dehumanize black people that continues to be used to the same effect by non-black people. why can't they just get over it?"

usually followed or accompanied by "the fact that white people can't use this word is racist."

Since it was overwatch the kid was probably 35 years old but sounds like a kid and also a whiny bitch since 99% of the people who play overwatch are whiny bitches

The only reason that word has power is because you keep giving it power. Hispanics and middle eastern people use it all the time and nobody cares.

But when a white or Asian person uses it it's all "call 911!".

If you hate the word then everybody needs to stop using it. Especially black people to other black people.

wow it's almost as though it's not your race that decides whether or not it's appropriate for someone to say that word

personally i also think the word should go away but if you can't understand why it's still used you might have grown up with only certain people your whole life or you're a bitterbeard who got cucked at an early age by non-white people who were cooler than you

i really can't tell if people are trying to say that black people being offended by a word created to offend black people is entirely their fault

I'm trying to say that if the history of that word is painful, stop using the word againt Each other altogether. It's silly when black culture and black hip hop/rap artists use the world like it's as casual as hello, but then get really angry when someone non black uses it because of it's history.

Prolly doesnt help that the word is so freely used by the black community.

It literally is just words. It's slung around so casually in person most of the time people just get shocked when they hear it over the mic.
