[2021-9-30. : 12:14 am]  Zycorax -- LuigiLuigi shouted: Vrael The bad use of the word. And it will keep happening. It's a bit of a shame really. Here in Norway it was completely normal to use the Norwegian equivalent when I was a kid in the 90s and early 00s. I never felt that there were any negative connotations to it, but in the past 10-15 years it's being frowned upon to use it, which in turn gradually makes it sound bad, even when it isn't used in a bad way.[2021-9-29. : 9:12 pm] Luigi -- VraelVrael shouted: even the n-word was once just a word, its only through the contortion of our american-specific history that the common conception of the word has come to be The bad use of the word. And it will keep happening.[2021-9-29. : 2:59 pm] MTiger156 -- I can't be a sussy baka cuz I've never played Among Us, and have always absolutely despised any meme associated with it  [2021-9-29. : 2:15 pm] Vrael -- lil-Infernolil-Inferno shouted: can y'all stop being sussy bakas for just one minute maybe. possibly. don't know. what's that mean?[2021-9-29. : 1:54 pm] jjf28 -- Andrea RosaAndrea Rosa shouted: Uplifting Thought of the Day --- Humans were not designed to be happy, so please stop trying. :thinking:[2021-9-29. : 11:39 am] Andrea Rosa -- Uplifting Thought of the Day --- Humans were not designed to be happy, so please stop trying.[2021-9-29. : 9:46 am] UndeadStar -- Soon on Staredit: support for 🏿:wob: syntax to get a "dark skin" wob...or not[2021-9-29. : 8:23 am]  Oh_Man -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: NudeRaider "n-word" is pretty much exclusively used in a meta-discussion of the word itself, it's not like "fuck" where people will say things like "frick" in the same context with the same meaning .. especially since anyone who is trying to use the actual meaning in this case will likely have no hesitation saying the word instead of a euphemism nigga plz[2021-9-29. : 8:12 am] Vrael -- though I gotta say I struggle to come up with any non-harmful usage of the word[2021-9-29. : 8:02 am] Vrael -- even the n-word was once just a word, its only through the contortion of our american-specific history that the common conception of the word has come to be[2021-9-29. : 5:27 am]  O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I would like to agree with "words are just words and shouldn't have power", except when the word in question basically has no other reason to exist than to do harm ... and also this: Voyager7456Voyager7456 shouted: "as a white guy, here's why I think people are too sensitive about the n-word" [2021-9-29. : 5:20 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: I also mixed in the hypocrisy I see in having 2 words with exactly the same meaning but different spelling are considered different somehow. I expanded on that here: NudeRaider "n-word" is pretty much exclusively used in a meta-discussion of the word itself, it's not like "fuck" where people will say things like "frick" in the same context with the same meaning .. especially since anyone who is trying to use the actual meaning in this case will likely have no hesitation saying the word instead of a euphemism[2021-9-29. : 3:55 am] Oh_Man -- Whichever has feature tht finds and displays every instance of a thing its hella handy[2021-9-29. : 2:11 am] Vrael -- ya a bike that contains like 400,000 lines of systems I havent thought about in 10 years[2021-9-28. : 9:46 pm] Vrael -- its just like they say: one culture's cringeworthy ostracization is another man's sacrificing virgins to the gods of small feet[2021-9-28. : 9:44 pm] Vrael -- eh I didnt really think he's being a sjw or w/e I just didnt like that he tried to speak for all of us with the "we're all" cringing line[2021-9-28. : 9:34 pm] Ultraviolet -- VraelVrael shouted: Voyager7456 and we're all cringing at your need to cringe too This tbh.

I didn't mean to describe it as a heroic deed. Just something others wouldn't dare.[2021-9-28. : 3:13 pm] Luigi -- This LuigiLuigi shouted: The job for SCV operator suits them well. ain't good, but it was my superficial impression of Terran workers, I didn't really mean it. Also they are fundamental units, in my opinion. But making associations like that is incorrect.[2021-9-28. : 3:04 pm] Luigi -- What if my account was created only yesterday and I came here just to say n-... and then leave?[2021-9-28. : 2:07 pm] Vrael -- oh well, if its been done before then that's not nearly as bold, I was trying to be original[2021-9-28. : 2:06 pm] No-Name-Needed-II -- "if you dropped a sick beat and then did a 360 over a gaping 240 foot chasm while riding only a small gecko as your steed" I think they did that on "Rated-R StarWars"[2021-9-28. : 2:03 pm] Vrael -- at least on the internet anyway, like if you dropped a sick beat and then did a 360 over a gaping 240 foot chasm while riding only a small gecko as your steed, I might perhaps be shook[2021-9-28. : 2:01 pm] Vrael -- but yes also no one is shook by boldness Nude, sorry but that's a fantasy idea[2021-9-28. : 2:00 pm] Vrael -- Voyager7456Voyager7456 shouted: NudeRaider no one is shook by your boldness, we're all cringing and we're all cringing at your need to cringe too[2021-9-28. : 1:57 pm] No-Name-Needed-II -- Is there anybody out there? - Is there anybody OUT THERE?? - Is there anybody out there..[2021-9-28. : 12:04 pm] Voyager7456 -- shitting your pants in public isn't breaking the chains of society[2021-9-28. : 12:04 pm] Voyager7456 -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: Ultraviolet Moose The original point was that I'm happy to live in a world where I can use controversial words. Not to offend people, but to make the point that they have more power than they should. "Don't focus on the word, focus on the deeds", in essence. Also I'm pretty sure nobody felt actually offended by my use of the word. Like that they actually felt attacked. I think most people were just shook by my boldness. no one is shook by your boldness, we're all cringing[2021-9-28. : 11:47 am] lil-Inferno -- if you wanna have a discussion on it maybe do it in serious discussion with context, not in the shoutbox where people first look[2021-9-28. : 6:18 am] NudeRaider -- I also mixed in the hypocrisy I see in having 2 words with exactly the same meaning but different spelling are considered different somehow. I expanded on that here: NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: What if I said nigger is a very bad word and nobody should use it? What if I say the n-word is a bad word? Where do you draw your line? [2021-9-28. : 6:17 am] NudeRaider -- UltravioletUltraviolet shouted: Moose he did make a basic point: NudeRaider plus he's not even American so it's not like his people have a history of using that word oppressively MooseMoose shouted: He made the point after the fact and also made the point without using the word The original point was that I'm happy to live in a world where I can use controversial words.

IE, if you're intentionally saying something knowing other people are likely to find it offensive, then you should probably have a point to make when you say it. he did make a basic point: NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: :shrug: I guess my point is words aren't inherently evil. Only the context they are used in can be evil. plus he's not even American so it's not like his people have a history of using that word oppressively[2021-9-28. : 12:13 am] Voyager7456 -- I'm not sure I've ever met someone who made this particular word their hill to die on that didn't come across like they were just throwing a fit because society told them not to say it[2021-9-27. : 11:58 pm] Moose -- I support our rights to use whatever words get our points across and have real dialogues, I find it distasteful to use language generally considered offensive for the sake of doing so or for no real reason at all.

I guess an argument could be made for the word being considered innately offensive in and of itself, particularly when said by a German honky Well one of the rules *is* "don't be a fuckhead" [2021-9-27. : 11:52 pm] Ultraviolet -- MooseMoose shouted: Ultraviolet Excuse me, grape drank, thank you One time I actually saw it in the fucking store, I lol'd so hard: real grape drink[2021-9-27. : 11:52 pm] Ultraviolet -- Also is it even against the rules to say 'nigger' in the way Nude is?
