Linguistics is weird.

2018-08-27 06:08:19 UTC  

Because people used moron as an insult

2018-08-27 06:08:23 UTC  

Then guess what

2018-08-27 06:08:30 UTC  

And now retard is an insult.

2018-08-27 06:08:30 UTC  

People started using retarded as a result.

2018-08-27 06:08:31 UTC  

but i grew up when gangsta rap was being born so its kind of a part of my culture even though i am a whitey

2018-08-27 06:08:33 UTC  

WE should definitely start co-oping these words.

2018-08-27 06:08:36 UTC  

@Joey4Track (POLEMIC HEART) I call my friends racial slurs but not ones that apply to them (ex. calling my token black friend a cracker).

2018-08-27 06:08:41 UTC  

So they made shit like mentally disabled

2018-08-27 06:08:43 UTC  

If I can get others of my race, others of other races to co-op these words.

2018-08-27 06:08:56 UTC  

Turn them into positive, we could make headway I think.

2018-08-27 06:08:57 UTC  

Which words?

2018-08-27 06:08:57 UTC  

I call my friends faggots all the time

2018-08-27 06:09:05 UTC  

Thoguh I suspect one actually is gay

2018-08-27 06:09:09 UTC  

my school was 85% black so everyone said nigga and it was no thing

2018-08-27 06:09:20 UTC  

back in the 90's

2018-08-27 06:09:26 UTC  

no one cared

2018-08-27 06:09:28 UTC  

Something to keep in mind though is "Context" and "Nuance".

2018-08-27 06:09:29 UTC  

What race are youg uys?

2018-08-27 06:09:35 UTC  

Like it matters

2018-08-27 06:09:41 UTC  

i am a whitey for the record

2018-08-27 06:09:43 UTC  

But I aint white ill say that much

2018-08-27 06:09:51 UTC  

Just wondering, you could try to start a movement to destroy racial slurs by making them into positive.

2018-08-27 06:09:54 UTC  

Mixed. I think alot of the people around here are probably mixed.

2018-08-27 06:09:55 UTC  

Do it all at the same time with other races.

2018-08-27 06:09:58 UTC  

I'm white, a Canadian of some scottish and Polish ancestry.

2018-08-27 06:09:59 UTC  

WE could have a very big impact.

2018-08-27 06:10:00 UTC  

Fuck it, you guys probably heard

2018-08-27 06:10:07 UTC  

Im malaysian

2018-08-27 06:10:08 UTC  

That will never work though

2018-08-27 06:10:26 UTC  

It can. But it has to catch on.

2018-08-27 06:10:33 UTC  

White with a bit of Cherokee Indian and Moroccan (enough to make me tan easily, still blond).

2018-08-27 06:10:34 UTC  

oh yeah, you are from singapore no?

2018-08-27 06:10:38 UTC  

And it has to be met with some degree of acceptanve.

2018-08-27 06:10:42 UTC  

Malaysia

2018-08-27 06:10:44 UTC  

Born in singapore

2018-08-27 06:10:48 UTC

2018-08-27 06:10:56 UTC  

Be like walk away movement. An movement to destroy racists power, by co-op words to give them a different meaning. Now the racists don't have words to offend.
