Blacks can use it over and over and over. No one else can apparently.

So now people are to be cancelled for what they nearly said?!

Yes, just one more baby step towards the Orwellian world that our overlords have planned for us. Eventually, we will be arrested for thought crimes, just like in Orwell's non-fiction book "1984".

If you so much as dream about engaging in an unapproved activity, you'd better wake up and report yourself.

Well said. Me too.

This weekend at a bar near CUA in DC a black man had on a hoodie that said “end racism. Hate everyone equally”.

“ It’s not a word that I use but I think it’s ridiculous that we’re supposed to feign outrage every time a white person uses it (an act that can end careers and ruin reputations) yet black people totally get a pass. ”

I grew up in the deep, deep south. We knew the word, and rarely used it, but the blacks used it for both an insult as well as a term of endearment. Frankly it has been no skin off my nose (oops..another n-word). I wonder if they want something “exclusive” to them. Funny, I thought that was supposed to be a bad thing. Any black that uses it loses any chance of respect from me. Some it seems like every other word.

Obviously the tackling prowess of each team was discussed in the game-prep meetings. He alluded to that. He also mentioned three points that probably were made in that same meeting. Since there are dozens of words that start with ‘ni’ many of which could apply to his commentary, why start with the word that is a ‘sacred cow’ to the left?

One could also say: when blacks stop using that word, so will society.

In medieval times the N-word had a ‘k’ in front of it.

He could have been ready to say “nickle backs” but realized his error and adjusted his commentary.

It was a long time ago (by today’s standards) that Richard Pryor announced on stage that he would stop using the word ‘nigger’ in his acts. He said it was disrespectful no matter who uses it and he would not be party to that. He was at the height of his career. It was notable.
