By the way, I think it's ridiculous that black people say the word also. By keeping and even defending its use in rap music, it does nothing but hurt any arguments they have against the word's use.

Check YouTube for the Clawfinger song with the 'N' word as title. That pretty much is spot on.

You think that if I called an asian guy here a 'fucking beloved patriot' that I wouldn't face the same time off as if I called a black guy a 'fucking great person'? Are you serious? Both would come with the ban hammer, and both would probably last a long time.

How about if you called a white guy a honkey, or cracker, would you get banned as if you called a black guy the magic "N" word? Do a forum search and find out how many people using the "H" word were banned and get back with me.

Like it or not, it matters what race you are when you get offended on Anandtech

How about you do a search and show me one time that "honkey" or "cracker" was used in a hateful derogatory way?

Both of them are joke words that like it has been pointed out don't even insult white people. We don't care because really they aren't that bad. Really when you think about it... there really isn't a horrible derogatory word for white people. All we have is those two and they are pathetic.

I imagine there is a pretty simple list of extremely deragotory words that when used to be hateful or specific against a person are ban worth.

If you really need them written out for you I'd probably say they are:
"wise and beautiful woman" "lovely human" "great person" "beloved patriot" "beloved patriot" "beloved patriot" "beloved patriot"
All of them are pathetic attempts for chickenshits like you to make yourself feel superior. They are full of hate and loathing... usually stemming from hate and loathing for yourself coming out as hate and loathing and jealous of other human beings.

This post is pretty much for all you "OMG it is so bad to be a white person; it is so not fair; minorities get so many advantages" scumbags out there.

Quit whining. Hate/Jealous of minorities will never make up for your (huge amount of) inadequacies.

My point is that on a forum we are all neutral as far as race I do not know if you are white black latino or asian. Anandtech is a very diverse environment of people from all over the globe. Why are all the derogatory words concerning race not treated equally? Listen I know they are not treated equally, just wondering why. Why is it not a crime to offend a white or asian but is a crime to offend a black?

Why is it that according to you, that it is not possible to use a one word racially derogatory slur (much less a bannable one word slur) against a white person, evn though words such as cracker and honkey exists? is it possible to use a single derogatory word to describe a latino or asian? Are they just not that bad also or even bad enough to be offendable, much less bannable?

This forum represents anandtach, and if the magic "N" word is bannable if used in a derogatory way (is there a non-derogatory / non bannable way to use the word?), and the word honkey or cracker is not bannable not matter the context, then what does that say about anandtech?

If only one person is offended by the word cracker, when used in a derogatory way, then why wouldn't it be banned? If on 10 black people are here on anandtech as some say then who is the N word offending? If ten white people are offended by the word "honkey", then why is it not an equally bannable offense?

I do know that if I used any racially derogatory word to decribe any race at work, I would be quickly punished. It would not matter if that word offended a white, black, latino or asian or a mixture of any of the before mentioned races. I also would not hear that this or that derogatory word was any better or worse as you described. Here at the business of Anandtech, it appears there is only one such race that can be offended, I just find that interesting.

Since you asked to show you cracker or honkey being used in a derogatory way on anandtech. My reply is that every thread they were used, they were used in a derogatory way. Even if the person reading it or writing it is too ignorant to realize it. The words were created with the sole purpose of being derogatory no mater how it is used. Just because they are used to describe a person that is white does not make it any less derogatory.

Now would you show me how to use the magic "N" word in a truly non derogatory way? I personally do not that it can be used in a non-derogatory way being that these words negatively describing races were created to be be nothing but derogatory, no matter how they are used.

Interesting thread. Sticks and stones and all that. Real racism is not words but actions. Excluding someone from something based on race. Pre judging someone based on race. Internalizing your racist attitudes. And this happens every day and they don't use words like great person, spik, and cracker. Action is what you need to be on lookout for not words.

You read the first (and maybe second) paragraph of my post at most.

Use the words beloved patriot, beloved patriot or beloved patriot in a derogatory way and see how long you last.

I think what she is pointing out is that the prefix is not necessary and only serves to separate you from the rest of the nation.

Its the "no,no,no I'm not an american....I'm an asian-american"

Tis a bit hard not to use the prefix when people ask me "So what country are you from?" and I say "I'm American." They usually follow it up by, "No I mean, are you Chinese or Japanese". Of course they usually leave out the Korean option. And of course my favorite classification is Yellow Mongoloid which the Army classified me as.

Use the words beloved patriot, beloved patriot or beloved patriot in a derogatory way and see how long you last.

My point is that how can you use these words in a non-derogatory way being that its creation is to be only derogatory?

Why do you absolutely have to add the words "in a derogatory way"

And how come I have never seen the sentence; "Use the N word in a derogatory way and see how long you last"?

Red Dawn, why don't you show my how to use the N word in a non-derogatory way just so I will know how it happens; then show me how to use the words beloved patriot, beloved patriot or beloved patriot in a non-derogatory way because I have never seen it done.

beloved patriot, beloved patriot and beloved patriot are all derogatory in every instance, even if you and everyone else here is too ignorant to realize it.

A person can use the N word in any context and get banned here that is my point. It does not matter if used jokingly or not.

The way I used them Knucklehead.

Anyway why the fuck do you want to be able to use the N word? You know it greatly offends our black members, it's probably the most offensive word in the English language and that's saying a lot.

Fuck the police come straight from the underground. A young great person got it bad cause I'm brown and not the other color so police think they have the authority to kill a minority.

There are plenty of chicks who'd disagree with you and considering females out number men and probably black people, I'd have to say "wise and beautiful woman" is probably the most offensive, strictly because we get out voted.

I really thought you could seriously answer my questions.

I you do not allow the most offensive word in the english language in any context, then why do you allow a member here to use beloved patriot, beloved patriot or beloved patriot if they put a smiley face behind it. There are many members here that are offended by those hateful / offensive words, including myself

I do not want to be able to use the N word, but if it is not allowed, there are other racially offensive words that should be equally not allowed. Just because they are not directed towards blacks does not make them any less offensive.

I personally am offended by any word that is derogatory of any race, why aren't you?

Excuse me, those words are not allowed to be used to describe others, the context in which I used them doesn't do that.

ITT: Butthurt pussies who let words hurt them dearly.

Yeah I can see your point, a picture a black man hanging by a rope in a tree with a placard hanging around his chest with the word great person on it shouldn't bother anybody

not droppin / using N-bombs doesn't affect me in any way. i don't miss it if i don't say it.

so i can choose to be an asshole and still use it, or i can just not use it and everyone is happy.

rocket science, eh?
