In all honesty, being from Australia, people use the n-word all the time (myself included) cause its not seen as offensive, i imagine its the same as the UK. Also its obvious its not being used in a racist way.

It's ridiculous.

1. White people aren't even offended by that word, they only care when they're trying to make excuses for their racism
2. There's no oppressive history behind that word
The term cracker was originated during slavery, because they used to "crack" whips on slaves.

Some people serving Brooke Hogan teas comparing being called "pasty" or "cracker" to the 'N' word. Okay ATRL user

You also have over 15k posts on this forum, the time spent amassing those posts could have also been used to help stop racism or do something significant, but did you?

If white people are so sensitive about reverse racism then they need to tell each other to stop saying n***** instead of LAUGHING about it.

he's still bae, waiting for an apology |
it's just weird to me that everyone dragged Tyga for dating a 17 year old and are still dragging him even though Kylie's turned 18, but it's ok in this case because y'all think Gregg is hot (which seems to be the running excuse for that and him using the n-word). regardless of when she turns 18, he's a grown ass man dating a teenager. maybe it's just the way i was raised. it's wrong no matter how the guy looks. sorry not sorry.

Australia is hardly a shinning beacon for racial diversity/tolerance

so, you're saying that white people getting a tan is proof that racism against white and blacks is equal.

Oh, so what they say about Australians (not all) being racist is true?
There's really no excuse for it. Don't really care about your culture, sorry. Learn what the word means and stop using it. It's offensive.

And I can see how you would think that, and if i was in America I would NEVER use that word, its just differences in cutlure and differences in meaning. No one in Australia (and I imagine the UK) would look at someone of colour and use the N-word to describe them, they have different meaning. And that is partially because our only exposure of black culture is Rappers who constantly use the N-word. Im not saying its common or widely accecpted but it has a different meaning here.
