Calling a person a nigger because that person is black is bigotry. Calling a person a nigger ignoring the person's race is not bigotry.

i know its been a while but I need to hear your opinion ekat. If you call a random black person the n word without any actual racist intent (or in your words, just using the word), does that mean its not bigotry, as you were ignoring their race when you used the insult?

I'm trying to understand what you were saying previously, were you making the argument that someone could use a slur that's directed at their target (ie the slur matches the race of that person), but if in their own mind they said the slur without taking the target's race into account it would not be racist?
How does that track? Doesn't that give every single person an out from being accused of being a racist by just saying they were ignoring race when they said it? Does the concept of racism therefore not exist in any provable form in your view of the world?

Yeah, obviously.
Let's break it down. To be racist is to discriminate against a person on account of that person's race.
If you call someone something while ignoring the person's race, it is physically and literally impossible for you to have been racist, as you were ignoring race, which is the opposite of discriminating on account of it.

And it's equally possible according to your definition for virtually anyone to lie about not being racist.

MSO has already stated he'd rather not ban racists than falsely ban non-racists. "Letting them slip through the cracks" is irrelevant.
Also you put words in my mouth in assuming the only way to tell whether someone's doing it because of race is to ask that person.
When it's only one person he insulted, you can't tell if it was because of race. When it's 20, what are the chances they all just happen to be of a particular race?

I'm not talking about server rules. I just think it's a strange, naive world view on your part to just believe people who are strongly incentivized to lie to you.
I'd also clarify that MSO's opinion as far as this is concerned is that he wants no false positives for an accusation. He specifically says calling an autistic person autistic would be a slur in his opinion. You seem to be saying it isn't a slur unless the person tells you specifically it is a slur or you have to gather a significant amount of information before making the conclusion that it is a slur.

So a racist would have to insult someone of a particular race about 20 times in your presence before you'd feel secure to conclude they're a racist?

That was an example. Any number is arbitrary. The higher it is, the greater the confidence with which you can make the assertion.
Finding out who's secretly racist and who isn't is not my job. I am not on the hunt. If there's no actual discrimination, I couldn't care less.

But I don't really get how you can decide calling someone a slur to their face without regard for how the other person would interpret that would not be a fairly reliable tell that the person is racist. At the very minimum it's a huge degree of disrespect. Seems like your two options for someone using your "I'm not racist" defense is that they're a disingenuous racist, or a severely disrespectful autist unaware of how their actions are interpreted on a very fundamental level. Neither is a great look.

Racism is about your motive for your actions, not about how other people interpret them.

Of course insulting someone is disrespectful, but being disrespectful is not the same as being racist.
We are talking about hypothetical situations where a person's motives are known. Of course, in real life, you can't just read another person's mind, you have to make conclusions based on available evidence.

Anyways ekaterina's position is literally just a convenience position so that they can remain comfortable saying the word themselves; the alternative is that they are (intentionally) so naive they respond to every scam text in earnest, and have invested in every money transfer inheritance liquidity email they've gotten.

Using a slur at a non-racially-relevant target doesn't actually make the usage of the term nonbigoted, you dumbasses. You're still employing the weight of the term's bigotry and offensiveness for shock value, otherwise you'd be using a different word.

Posted: **Thu Apr 13, 2023 8:07 pm**

The specific definition and history of insults is why they work as insults, it's why you don't generally call people a piano or a chalkboard when they do something fucking stupid. You're still employing the specific context and history of the word when you use it against a generic target.

I recommend putting your pronouns in your signature if they're important to you, you can't expect people to follow them if you don't share them. That being said, they is an ungendered pronoun meant to be all encompassing and respectful so I don't see much reason to correct it

Yes, this is epic. Hrackers, liggers, maggots, felishits (genetrash, if you will), plasmemes and the one I usually don't even remember exists - what a crew.

Hracker would be pretty funny.

and don't refer to me as "they", those are not my pronouns.

edit: fixed quote links
I recommend putting your pronouns in your signature if they're important to you, you can't expect people to follow them if you don't share them. That being said, they is an ungendered pronoun meant to be all encompassing and respectful so I don't see much reason to correct it
i just use he/him since theres no girls on the internet.

For me? I don't really care much. But I get that some other people will

That was an example. Any number is arbitrary. The higher it is, the greater the confidence with which you can make the assertion.
Finding out who's secretly racist and who isn't is not my job. I am not on the hunt. If there's no actual discrimination, I couldn't care less.

The sheer arrogance in thinking you know other people's minds...

Or, or... OR... Wild and hot take from me... We just don't use racial insults and slang and terminology which might hint towards racism or homophobia or any of that shit? People don't need to read your mind, and they're not arrogant for it. How you portray yourself is up to you, and if you portray yourself in a way that others are easy to jump to conclusions, you're more than likely doing something wrong, on the off chance the individual is just fragile. Like you said, "the higher it is, the greater the confidence with which you can make the assertion," so the more people you piss off, the easier it is to assume you're in the wrong. Either way, it's ridiculous to tell people they must read your mind and BELIEVE you when you're saying such controversial shit that you mean no harm, because "you don't know me, I know me, and I can assure you that I'm not bad, trust me. My only defense is is me, I said so, but you're ignorant and arrogant if you don't trust me." Before you know it, all those who harbor racist feelings will be wearing anti-telepathic tinfoil hats as a "fashion trend", lol.

It's much easier to defend your innocence by simply using a more creative insult or word than to use something so demeaning and harsh that is used in racist and homophobic communities daily, but that's just me. I can't read your mind and know whether you have the vocabulary built-up to come up with something else, so I'll just have to default to say that you have good intentions when you don't choose other words instead of pointed and targeted hateful slang, according to your philosophy of repetition.
