[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree, using k*aren, becky etc... is an opportunity to use backwards racism and can be as offensive as the n word, etc.

As John Mulaney noted upthread, nothing can be as offensive as the n-word.[/quote]

NP and hispanic (if it matters).  I agree that K*ren has quickly evolved to be a racist term against white women. It's not the nword but that does not mean it's not terrible.  IMO it's akin to derogatory and racist terms like `spic and wetback, both words that sicken me "but are not as bad as the nword".  I can't just tell society not to use racist words towards my racial group and think it's ok to use a new racist and derogatory word against white women.  JMO. [/quote]
Yeah the n-word isn’t even on the same playing field. Especially since white women have a ton of privilege that black people do not. Not to mention, the history of injustices such as Emitt Till and slavery and all of that. [/quote]

I don’t think it’s on the same level especially with all the history that comes with the nword but it’s still being used in an offensive and derogatory and racial fashion and what can I say, that does not sit right with me either. [/quote]
