If using disparaging names, and symbols and flags are okay--because they don't offend you and you want to not worry about others--then I presume you were perfectly fine with some skinheads out flying the confederate and nazi flags and do Heil Hitler salutes. Maybe they live in the DC area, so they'll wear Redskin memorabilia, put pig snouts on their faces, and Indian headdress.
It seems to me that you want to lump everyone who wears a Redskins shirt into one group...most conservatives don't think like this.
If a group of idiots (i.e., BLM, skinheads, whatever...) are all wearing Seattle Seahawks gear, I don't assume that all Seahawks fans are racist skinheads or racist blacks! I don't assume that the Seattle Seahawks team supports that particular nutjob group and their radicalism!
Nope, like MOST conservatives, I just live my happily knowing that THOSE PARTICULAR Seahawks fans are real a$$holes and racists. See the difference?

I sometimes refer to my wife as “blackhead” or “Dragon Lady”. My Thai sister-in-law and I also call her E-gaa, which is a somewhat impolite form of Old Lady.

I'm not willing to go THAT far for the cause- I reckon it'd be a real pain in the *ass!

By appropriation I mean the slur. I’m white so I would appropriate the slur honky or cracker.

Yelling “fire” in a crowded theater puts people in danger.Calling a team “the Redskins” doesn't.Calling someone “cracker” or “nigga”,while surely impolite,doesn't.

The only race that gets true "red skin" are caucasians. I spent a good portion of my childhood...and a fair portion of my early adulthood...looking like her.So now I get to put the kids of my Dermatologist...and some faceless Pathologists...through Harvard with all the biopsies I've had.
