Those are one of the most offensive types of words. Stop acting like you've never in your life been offended or put off by anything anyone ever said to you because it's making you try too hard and you're coming off a mess.
Also I saw you say earlier that you being black and mexican means you're "educated on minority issues". Don't get it twisted. There are FULLY black folk who are ignorant as **** when it comes to race issues. Just as ignorant or more than a lot of racist white people.

"ESPECIALLY" slurs because these are the words people like to pretend to be offended by all the time. It's a waste of time to be offended by some sounds coming out of someone's mouth when you should be offended by the actions of their hands or their votes or their beliefs. No words have meaning, ESPECIALLY racial slurs. They don't mean ****, and you shouldn't let them mean ****.
And I wasn't claiming otherwise, I'm well aware that there are African Americans who don't know anything about the oppression of their culture, because I used to lack any knowledge whatsoever on topics like police brutality, cultural appropriation, socioeconomic disadvantages, and all the things of that nature. But I've learned a lot, and I learn more each day. But one thing I will always believe is that someone else's opinion of who I am does not change my life for worse or better. And that will never be false. I'm sorry if you disagree or think I'm ignorant or wrong but I've never been proven wrong, so I will continue to stand by what I know to be true.
