"As far as that "N-bomb", I view it as race specific, therefore don't use it. "

just say nubian godlike people stolen from their homeland.

I was speaking about the word itself. Not the people it's commonly used to refer to.

...and at the plant there was the N-Reactor? "Oh sorry, change the name, it has bad connotations." Oh yeah, and like dropping a bomb in Nagasaki didn't have bad connotations either.

"n-bomb" (the euphemism) is funny (but shouldn't be used).

"n-bomb" the actual word, not funny.

"n-bomb" the neutron-based explosive, funny.

"the neutron dance" the neutron-based dance, not funny.

although Yogi the Bear and various super low-budget Hanna Barbera cartoons that are spliced and edited to "the neutron dance" = ever so slightly funny.

but what it is.

he's saying.

the word nigger (which i'm going to use because we're all adults here for the sake of the subject at hand) should only be used by other blacks when talking to another black person. i don't understand either.

if you're ignorant, i'll call you a nigga. or i might just call someone nigga out of affection (?!).

true. i'll probably have a different reaction to a white person saying it. but only because history shows that white people haven't used it in the most polite way. just my opinion.

but yeah. i don't understand that arguement. so i don't comment on it that much because i use it so much.

and not caring to understand or inquire as to the meaning behind them is why everyone was mad at me in the first place.

So nah, I won't just type it.

i know what you meant

but the ham-handed attempt at correctness just made you look kinda goofy, but still potentially racist because there's an undercurrent of "he'd say the real thing but he knows what'll happen"

i'm just trying to help ike

>there's an
>undercurrent of "he'd say the real thing but he knows
>what'll happen"

boooooo. Yet another assumption based on skin color. Like I;ve said, and this is the last time I'll say it. I never argued whether I was racist or not. I've only argued the evidence that has been presented, which has all been crap.

However, I WILL say that you're a funny dude, so I'm not mad.

when dealing with y'all, no matter how cool you are, we gotta ALWAYS be prepared for that other shoe to drop

we could be friends for 100 years, but in THIS society the second we let our guard down we set ourselves up for a pain/disappointment that is hundreds of years old

the very sand of this land (the world really) is squishy with it

i don't wish for it to be that way (none of us do) but like i said below:

sick.sad.world

it ain't "fair" for you to have to deal with that...and there MIGHT be pocket of "us" that are free from having to CONSTANTLY keep that guard up because they live in some nirvana where there's no potential for some shady race ish...but most of us don't

we didn't make the game up, but don't hate on us if we don't make up a few house rules

>>when dealing with y'all, no matter how cool you are, we gotta ALWAYS be prepared for that other shoe to drop

I kinda think that, as long as there's fear and that's what people expect is gonna happen, then it likely will. But I don't know how to abolish the fear or lack of trust or whatever, as the way u paint the pic, it's a hopeless 'cause. But I think unless somebody personally has given u the impression they aren't worthy of your trust, then I don't see why u should expect the worst, 'cause I think that really is sad, there's lots of good folks out there and it would be a shame to let fear get in the way of something good.

I get u, but I don't,(i mean how can I really GET U?), being I'm not black. But still, do think it's possible to let the past go? It would be nice, how else can we move forward. Of course there's always gonna be ignorant mfs out there, but eff em. U sound kinda "heavy" today. U can lay your burden down here anytime.

....pause....

*sigh*

nobody else (people-wise....that i know of) is ever asked to do that but us

why should i have to forget...all that? how could i? WHY would i?

maybe y'all could just do better?

you can't "eff em" when they are you boss. or someone youthought was your friend.

sometimes you have no choice but to stop playing "kumbahya" and recognize the foulness around you

how many gotta suffer (or die) before you get tired of being the one that says "we're cool" all the time?

it doesn't hate to go to the extreme of "kill my dog i'mm aslay your cat", but still

sometimes a brother get TIRED of the possibility that it COULD be that (not even counting when it actually is)

Well I'm not asking u to let the past go, like it wasn't MAJOR SHITE. I was asking if u thought u COULD let it go.

As for try'n to do better, I like who I am, and I think I am try'n to do my part, and I hope thru teaching and my example, I can bring somethin' positive to this upside down effed up place. And from my point of view, I shouldn't be made to feel guilty for what white peoples did in the past or for what other bigot mfs are doin' today either. I can't change the past, but wish I could. But you're only hurting yourself by holding on to all that pain and ish....For your own peace of mind and happiness I wish u could let it go. I am saying that in a sincere way. It just seems like hanging onto all the anger and hurt etc, could actually make things worse, u know, like if u turn it inside of yourself. That's how peoples get dis-ease and shit. But I'm not gonna try to pretend like e'rything's alright when it's not. If it makes u feel any better, regardless of the colour of my skin, I feel like I'll never truly be free either and when I allow myself to think about the messed up state of affairs we live in, it sickens me, so much is wrong!. It sux, I guess I just want things to be alright and the only way I way I know how is to "play kumbahya" and to try to make things better the way I know how. And I know peoples are sick of that too. I don't know what to do as a white woman. Can u tell me what I can do??? Also, I guess I just like to believe that LOVE can makes things better.

>I was asking if u thought u COULD let it go.

i honestly don't see how. it's not like i picked it up and refuse to put it down, it's more like it was HANDED to me and they won't LET me put it down

for every step forward, theres always some liek "oh by the way, you dropped this"

well, troof be told in the end, one HAS to deal with whatever individual is standing in front of them. the post was originally slightly tongue in cheek to say that those attempts at being "gentle" don't work. they belittle us all by reducing us to children. if you wanna call me a nigger....do that....if you wanna SAY nigger, say it. whatver the repercussions, it is what it'll be. "n-bomb" kinda 2nd grade ish is that?

>And from my point of view, I shouldn't be
>made to feel guilty for what white peoples did in the past
>or for what other bigot mfs are doin' today either.

with all due respect eff guilt. guilt does nothing for me anyway...neither do little scrape of "fair". nobody (well, at least i don't) WANTS you to feel guilty. but lets not pretend that life isn't the way it is, BECAUSE of who made it this way.

i simply say lets call it what is is and act like grown folks

if you don't like me cuz i'm Black or fat or whatever, say it and lets deal with it. If you're cool, be cool...i'm not gonna bust you over the head with a "kill whitey" stick (some might though....just like some might drag me for miles of the back of a truck). but even in the midst of THAT....don't get CUTE with me (back to n-bomb)

>I can't change the past, but wish I could.

sure you do. we all do. and thats cool (i guess). but that's just "wish"

as for TODAY and what we CAN do lets not pander, or poke...if you're REALLY cool, then be cool and recognize why folks walk withthe chips they do. again it ain't fair, but it is what it is and we all have our burdens to bear.....and supposedly being made to feel guilty over something you didn't do (but benefit from nonetheless) again doesn't compare to some other stuff i could mention (4 little girls just flashed through my mind)

>But you're only hurting
>yourself by holding on to all that pain and ish..

as said above, it ain't like it's a choice...it is what it is. "holding onto?"....tell me how to let it go then, and exactly where is it gonna go?

i have a two year old son that is INEVITABLY gonna have lessons to learn abotu this mess (either by being taught, or by being thrown into it)....don't tell me about ---->

>..For your
>own peace of mind and happiness I wish u could let it go.

my piece of mind. frankly, i'm chillin. hand to the most high i'm not stressing at all, i'm just trying to give you and open and honest peek inside

Boodah for all of that, honestly. I appreciate your candor.

I think there should be more open honest dialogue. It's a start. Man, I don't know what to say. I can't change that I'm white anymore than u can change that you're black. As for the guilt....I am just saying that I never did anything and I am sorrowful too for what's happened and the way things still are today. And as far as I'm concerned, no matter what colour our skin is, if we are living in the West, we are all benefiting by living off the backs of others. Unless we are willing to homestead and become 100% totally self-sufficient and drop outta capitalist society, we are guilty and doing wrong. Man, I hate this....I am sad especially for children such as your son (that reminded me of that Talib Kweli song), but I guess the only way I can deal with shit is try not to get upset 'bout shit all the time, that won't do any of us any good.

As for how to let it go, and where to drop it, I guess GOD or a higher power if u believe in such....I don't know, I don't have the answers. As for the N-word, I agree with u, white folks have NO business using that word, actually I don't think anyone should. And as for caring about peoples who have been dealt some crazy bad shit, I can't help if it my heart goes out, and it's not pity, I just happen to care. Last thing I wanna do is be paternalistic. I'm sympathetic tho and if I can do anything to make shit better, I will. I think too, that it's up to the black community to band together and do what they can to rise up and change the status quo, although maybe that's not possible? I'd like to believe it is, but I realize this isn't an equal opportunity world, so.....

Maybe I should just listen to what u and other folks have to say and do my best to understand and zip it, 'cause there ain't nothin' I can say to make shit go away or get better. But I do care, but somehow I doubt that matters.

frankly the only option is to point it at "you"

you don't want that...and that's nto some tuff talk it's just honestly

hell, i don't want that either

>Can u tell me what I
>can do???

talking helps. you understand ME, i understand you...not based on assumptions but on what the actual person says/does

to me, that part of what this site, and the net as a whole, are supposed to be for

sadly, folks would rather talk about taking it up the butt all day long

i meet you, you meet me (as deep as that can go on this platform...or otherwise) and we see each other has orlando and you (whatever your name is). not "that black guy" and queenie

it's much harder to "hate" someone generally when you know them specifically

and it's not some old "melting pot" whoo-ha...it's about putting down assumptions of how "they" are by getting to know them as individuals and realizing WE aren't that different

but that takes time and effort, and folks are lazy

plus it's easier to control groups of "thems" because you can keep them fighting each other...so the REAL "thems" keep the stove hot, because that's what keeps them at the tp of the food chain

but i digress

I feel a group hug coming on...

don't say the words "n-bomb"?

like you would "f-bomb"?

or do you mean don't use the actual word?

We're here. (does two finger pointing at your eyes, then mine, then back again)

it's just silly beyond reason

like saying "cock-a-doodie" as a euphemism for feces

don't like it? think it ain't fair?

see #23

directly involved said word. I could either
A) say the word
B) use some sort of euphemisim
C) ignore the post where someone brought up the fact that some
white people feel okay saying it, which was a relevent point
that I felt warranted a reply from the person that was the
subject of the thread in the first place.

The first choice is OUT. I went with the second choice, and in my eyes, since I was getting grouped in (by some people) with the white folks that feel okay saying that , I felt it was necessary for me to make it known that I'm not gonna play my self by EVER saying or typing that shit.

Why was I wrong?

welcome to my nightmare

but why does n-bomb get ruled out?

such is the cost of living in this messed up society

we BOTH have to navigate rough waters in enemy territory

i gotta worry about my boss not giving me a raise or messing up my career with a bad report because she don't like my shade regarless of the quality of work i have done

you can't say "n-bomb"

sick.sad.world

str8 outta compton was the N-Bomb dropped on white america

another thread pulled outta context. This is amazing. I feel like a one hit wonder that puts out a pop crap song that makes my LP triple plat, but I had some really good shit on the album, but people think I'm that one song.

I feel like John Mayer. Except he's not crap.

think about it

I want no such thing. I know calloused posters. They aren't that fun.

you take the good and you see the foolish for what it is

you see based on behavior when it's ribbing, and hopefully you're not sensitive enough to take it otherwise

you take the REAL attacks and deal with them as such

note: this isn't one......necessarily

and please read #40
