Current Events > Prager: It is idiotic you cannot say the N-word

(+) Yeah! (+)

lmao

conservative mindset

Explain.

I can kinda get the issue. Maybe no one should say it then?

But why do some white people act like it's a big part of their vernacular that they're being forced to not say?

Is half of what they say in public certain movie quotes and rap lyrics? What was a fuck like Prager saying that he can't say "any more"?

Not even a lot of black people say it to random strangers

I'll give him the N-Word pass if I ever see him

Surely no one here will defend the usage of racial slurs.

Actually he can. Anyone can.

And everyone is free to judge as a result.

No, the idiocy is that some can.
Either a word is abhorrent, or it's not.

no one has EVER said that anyone can't say it.

people of all colors can and have said the word for decades.

Why would you WANT to say it? Normal well-adjusted people have no desire to use that word.
(I know the answer--they want to use it specifically because they don't like somebody denying it to them.)

Im not surprised someone who defends slavery would say this

whut

Why is it always the same people who are annoyed they cant say racial slurs

---

The bigger lesson here is that we need a better epithet for white people. The big ones have several non-epithet meanings, even the H-word.

Prager also needs a swift punch to the throat.

White Women supporting saying the N-word is a common symptom of pregnancy.

Its a hormonal thing.

The most pathetic thing in all this is the whiny victimhood. You can say it so say it if you want to. Just stop acting like a baby

---

Knowing a little about Dennis praeger, this is probably taken out of context to frame him. The leftist media did the same thing with his comments on sex in marriage and Anne Frank and I think both times at least one "source" had to change their headlines because it was an outright lie.

Looking at this guy's twitter page, he has a clear anti anything on the right agenda. If you're going to be intellectually honest, you have to consider that before running with "oh look what Dennis prager said"

how dare I have to treat those people who I view as lower status with respect and acknowledge their views on why they don't like the word.

Ah.

Ahhhhh. :D

I do think its weird that you can't even really have a discussion about the word without everyone just saying, "the N word" like they are 8 and don't want to say a cuss word. Like if you're having a rational discussion about racism or whatever its weird you can't just use it in terms of quoting it or talking about how its wrong to call people that or whatever.

---

What he really wants is to say the word without consequences. Which is really weird to me. Why do you need to use it other than to put down a race of people?

---

I'm sorry?

I wasn't paying attention. I was busy reading The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

---

Honestly, anytime i hear anyone say the word i just get away from them. Its bound to bring drama no matter who says it so i just walk away from anyone saying it.

Works.

---

Why would a white person call a black person the n-word and not expect to be punched in the face?

A whole lotta words to chose from, but they chose THAT one.

Cancel Culture running away with something that a quick punch in the nose would take care of, immediately, is what Prager is whining about.

So you prefer physical beatings to people who say the N-word?

Are you saying Prager is calling for violence on people who say the N-word?

---

pauIie posted...

why do you want to say this word so badly? the general you, not you specifially.

For some, I reckon it is just a case of wanting to do what you're told you aren't allowed to do.

---

CyricZ posted...

Well... depends on the context.
In other contexts, "dude, not cool" may be appropriate.

This looks like a "dude, not cool" context.

I know enough to understand he is not some monstrous racist looking to call people the n word every chance he gets. I know the left likes to target racial, sexual and religious minorities who dont follow their script. They'd love nothing more than to get Prager thrown off the air because they want to say all Jews support their brand of politics and a prominent Jewish conservative like him(and Ben Shapiro for that matter) stand in opposition to that talking point. The left will do this for any outspoken minority who supports their opponents.

---

CyricZ posted...

I prefer it if they're white.

Only because they know what happens if they say it, yet still say it and then act like they don't know why they got beat up.

---

I mean it should be a word no one should say tbh.

---

I can

---

I think it's absurd that I can't say slurs and insults without social consequence. This is my god given First Amendment right and liberals are taking it away.

You seem indecisive on this. What do you think is "too much". Is losing one's job too much? Is being called out on the Internet too much?

Dennis Prager runs a website that he calls a "university" despite no accreditation, and uses this website and YouTube videos to produce slickly-edited cleanly-made packets of carefully selected lies and half-truths that he outputs as some kind of academic journal, all of which have a common theme of anti-progressive views.

Anyone who caught one of his bullshit troughs as an ad on YouTube in the last several years could tell you that.

Your angle on this being "the left isn't allowed to call out someone who is a minority" is pure projection.

EDIT: Oh, and your slotting him right next to Ben Shapiro only underlines your motives. One bad faith actor certainly deserves two others.

Umbreon posted...

Nah. It's fine for racial slurs. Some people need to be educated on how certain words aren't acceptable. Sadly, explaining this to them peacefully proves ineffective.

He is just saying that because he believes the word should be able to be used with no consequences at all, legal or otherwise. "Violence over words is bad" is just another dogwhistle concept now.
---

The usage of the word by anyone bothers me. I don't want to say it. I don't want it said.

Ultimately, though, what I want doesn't matter.

Why that word? If he wants to use it as a term of endearment, just use buddy or pal or dude or something like that.

Youd be right if there was one single culture in this world but there isnt.

For example: C*nt is highly offensive in The States but in Australia it's just an every day thing.

"Those darn liberals keep saying mean things to me. Don't they know the word racist is dehumanizing and offensive? Really, no one should be saying that word anymore."

Careful, theyll mod you for that censor bypass

the ignorant racist ALWAYS reveal their struggles with reality and critical thinking on this topic.

for one, the Black community has always been at odds with the term. I was raised in a household where it wasn't allowed, and I know many Black households that hate the word.

the types of shitheads from outside of the community that WANT to say the word completely ignore the Black people that are against the term because that doesn't help their generalization of "if THEY can say it..."

those types are tired of the social stigma of using the term while not Black, and want it to be the norm. again.

at the end of the day, it's still a conversation for Black people to have with other Black people. it's idiotic to ignore the problems of your own community in favor of rallying behind the most trivial shit that isn't even any of your business, lol.

but I know incorrigible cultures when I've been exposed to them long enough. I know using logic and common sense in the post won't change anything except for maybe my user status back to Warned, lolololol

the shoe fits plenty feet, after all.

Either we're all allowed to use it or no one is allowed to use it. I don't understand how the argument for certain people being allowed to use it.

Whos stopping you from using it for whatever reason you want to use it for?
