Ever see the episode of Dear White People when the black people rightfully got upset when a white boy at a party was singing along with the rap lyrics and sang the N word?
Wrong. It's not anyone's word. They made it cool for white people to say, and they and the people who run the record companies are responsible for that. Not people who just sing along to their favourite songs.
Black people also get upset when non-blacks adopt black children or use Oprah memes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lY7cfTXP9rQ They don't get to tell any other group of people what to do. That's not going to fly.
I didn't realize that the stigmatization of the n-word was causing you such angst. I'm truly sorry I can't change the forum rule against racial slurs to accommodate you, but I have an alternate solution.
Virtually all of Quentin Tarantino's films employ extensive use of that word. Download all of them, get yourself some beer and popcorn, and rub one out while surrounded by all of your white supremacist memorabilia and caressing that swastika you have tattooed around your left nipple. This isn't a perfect answer, of course, but it should help ease that existential crisis you seem to be having.
Best of luck.
