We’re close to the end of the road when we can’t even use “the N word” in a conversation about language where “the N word” is the subject of the discussion.
Well said.
The whole Chris Rock routine, always bothered the heck out of me. Never understood why that was o.k. but whatever, I guess some folks think swearing is funny. Turn around even quote what he said in his routine, and you a bigot.
Remember a few years ago in Washington, DC, a black city official in the finance office said we have to be “niggardly” with the people’s money. The resulting uproar compelled him to resign/be asked to leave. Why he left his job wasn’t clear, but because he used a legitimate word which sounded similar to the “N” word, politically correct ideology compelled him to “fall on his sword” and leave his job.
Given the finances of Washington, DC, they probably need more people like him. But, he had to be sacrified to political correctness.
