A n*gger is a race neutral term nowadays

no. no it's not. people know its origins and who it's referring to. to deny this is a form of sealioning. fuck off with that

It essentially means someone that takes far more than they will ever contribute, and in that respect, he's absolutely correct

attaching this meaning to it is a form of dog whistle to get people to associate these traits with Black people. you are doing the propaganda work of white supremacy right now.

    supremaCISM

    "White supremacy" is what they think is the case. "White supremacism" is what they practice by thinking it.

    Sorry for pedantry but this is one of those things that drives me nuts, similar to "my grandpa is on Facebook with all his conspiracies". NO. A conspiracy is real. A conspiracy THEORY is when a bunch of idiots think there's a conspiracy.

    Dunno, I once got told that you can use the word if you're black, LOL =\

    And if I'd use it to address a bunch of friends whose ancestors weren't slaves and who are not black, I think this wouldn't be an insult. If there's a black person nearby, I won't risk it having a different effect though.

    No it doesn't. People have all kinds of perceptions of words. Get used to it, nobody is going to follow your whim.

    Buddy, you're not a normal person and nothing in this conversation says I'm a racist.

    You're an idiot.
