I'm quoting from your own post in which you verbatim described using the N-word as a privilege. Maybe...just maybe it's about African Americans re-claiming some modicum of control after having almost none at all for hundreds of years. Maybe "privilege" is a gross mischaracterization no matter who is saying it. Maybe the subject is a little more nuanced than, "How come they can say it but we can't? Wah!"
" I had no idea you were so envious that it's off limits to you." So that wasn't an attack? WTF was it then?
When you describe using that word as a privilege you feel you don't have, what else am I supposed to infer other than you think that isn't fair? That you're missing out on something someone else has the privilege of getting to do? Is that not how you feel?
Quote:And you cannot deny that some people can say it and others can't, which is privilege at its simplest.
Perhaps, "can" and "can't" are really superficial and juvenile characterizations of what we're talking about here.
