Question about N word usage.
posted 3 years ago by 20Gbot123 3 years ago by 20Gbot123 +9 / -0

Why is the hard r N word allowed but not "z*g" which is not a slur?

A mumber of users were recently banned for using the term "z*g" in reference to the recent takeover of Japan. But nobody ever seems to get banned for uaing racial slurs. Logic would doctate that both constitute as identity attacks.

Pretty sure you can say Zog.

You can also say “nigger”. The word is a disgusting slur, and I would never use it, but this childishness where people act like it’s magic word that can’t risk being said - even when it's in having academic discussion of the word - otherwise Harry potter’s big bad guy shows up, is ridiculous.

Bullshit. I've been called a nigger on here for no reason.

Eh, I don't know the context, but I'd give 10 to 1 odds the reason was probably just to get your goat.

Even if it was from a genuine racist -- why would anyone care if a racist uses a racial slur? It's like being mad that a dog barked at you.

You cant, check the latest Japan related posts, all those removed comments used that term. OP actually posted a link to it and mods removed the link.

Not really. The issue is the implication. https://communities.win/p/16bPj7hN6m/x/c/4Tv8uRhb0T7
