As a person who doesn't speak Spanish, how was I supposed to interpret those uses in slack as anything more than an affectionate use of a slur? And you still haven't really explained how they are different. Both are meant to put the person down, but in usage within a specific context, they do not have that connotation. Explain how my use of the word nigger is any different.
Do you interpret all foreign language words as slurs? Wtf. I’ve literally never seen anyone use the word fresa to put someone down. My favorite use of the word boujee is when this guy talks about how he’d like to use fancy cheese on his Mac and cheese. Wut? I don’t need to explain how this is different from a racial slur. Lol. It doesn’t need an explanation.
Quote:The word fresa is somewhat pejorative outside the fresa circles. Being called a fresa, for example, in a punk subculture could be considered an insult, as many of the people in other subcultures absolutely abhor fresas, and use the term as an insult.

You seem to be confirming my point that terms like fresa and bujee are a parallel to my use of the word nigger, in spite of your apparently cockamamy view that it isn't, and that you don't need to justify your opinion, because, well, you're Losty, and what Losty says is law.

It’s a violation of the prime directive.
This is a complete misrepresentation and misquote of what I said, and your using quotation marks to imply that I said any such thing is an egregious misquote and has been reported as such.
(And you didn't answer my question as to whether any use of the word nigger can, though may not, result in the person being banned.)
