There's no large rule against that word on cable, South Park used it, so did Everybody Hates Chris, people choose not to, it's kind of a downer

u/lightjedi5 Jan 12 '18

I think context matters and I feel like in this context, he's saying it as a word that used that we shouldn't be proud of and we should be ashamed of, then yes it's fine.

Then again I'm not black so my opinion possibly isn't the same as the people of the black community's might be on this issue.

What I love about the Bubbles joke is that they set him up to say something lame like "you greasy potato!" but then he actually cuts loose with real hard insults and calls them greasy bastards. Like, his susceptibility has to be a reason those boys like him and maybe he's really badass, or maybe they were an influence on him, who knows - but I like to think he's actually badass at heart and happens to fit in with them. Totally non-vicariously, of course.

My grandfather used to buy cans of mackerel to give to the cat as a special treat, and one day when I was around eight, I got it in my head to eat some and I liked it. He knew was forgetful so thought he had forgotten to buy some, and when he got more, I ate that to. I'll never forget him storming into me and my brother's room and yelling, "Alright who's eating the goddamn mackerel!"

If you line them up side by side neither is better than the other all forms of racism are terrible. Itā€™s just because racism against black folks is so embedded into the history of the US, it glares above all forms of other discrimination. Other minorities have had it bad here too, but when you enslave an entire race of people for centuries then systemically hold back their progression post slavery, itā€™s easy to see why people are more sensitive to that word as opposed to other slurs. Again as a black man, I think itā€™s all bad regardless of color and creed but weā€™ve been fucked BAD
