as i said, half right, half wrong

when you ask someone if they sell a table

does it have 3 or 4 legs?

or more?

less?

so a plate without legs is a table?

you know im not even a nihilist xD

but im enjoyin this discussion

the meaning of words is not absolute

LANGUAGE?

you know

other languages, other words an meanings

words are subjective

related to what language you understand

whats this discussion about

if words are relative or absolute

if im a racist cuz i think the word nigger is fine

absolute

how are they absolute?

with more than 1 meaning?

to you, to me, to anyone

and different languages?

nigger holds the same meaning

wrong

to you, nigger could mean friend

to a rich man 200 years ago, it could mean "my slave"

🤔

YES IT DOES

thanks for understanding

not really, in the context it was used it may mean slave or friend

but nigger by itself means black person

a derogatory word due to historical context

yes

meaning of the word is absolute

so callin someone black... isnt discriminating but correct

but the context it used in is relative

its historical context is extremely offensive

okay, youre better at explaining this than me

it can be

it was used as a word to describe black slaves by rich white people

doesnt have to
