It is Tuesday March 25, 2008 and here is today’s rant. No real announcements for today but I must say that if you read this daily today is your comment day. Yes I will ask a question at the end of this rant. This might be my first serious rant so do not get scared.
Disclaimer- Everything to follow this is completely satirical. It is not meant for anyone to catch feelings. These comments are childish, immature, and nonfactual.
So yesterday was a good day. I managed to get things done but I did not find the time to do my video rant. What I did find was how ignorant we black people can possibly be. Now believe me I love being black (it helps in dark situations) and I love the privileges we get. (I am not going to a university because I am smart na’mean?) (That was a joke I am smart as hell 3.5 gpa). I was listening to a rap song on my way back from the movies ODB said the word “Niggerette”.
Wtf?
Now I can understand everyone calling each other “Nigga” but girls calling girls “Niggerette?” that’s almost as stupid as girls calling each other bitches and hoes. Alternatively just as stupid as a girls pimping each other out at a feminist rally WHILE chanting for female rights in Tibet. I mean this whole “nigger” thing must be taken into perspective.
I for one do NOT like that word at all. It has been taken completely out of context. Want to know why? I have a friend whose #1 “Nigga” is his penis. Yup. We messed up big time.
But now I have to touch on whether our white brethren should be able to say the word. What is my take on this?
Yes.
Say the damn word. Who cares any more? I do not think that we as people have ANY right to tell someone not to say it when we use it so freely in common speech. I DO believe that the word can be taken out of context. No one calls me a “nigger” but if a white boy called me, a “nigga”, I honestly would not care at all. However, can’t that be said for something else? What sense does it make that I cannot call Hispanics (do not kill me) “Spics” and “Spicettes”? Or Irish people “Ginger” kids or “Micks”? What about Asians and the word “Chink”? Everyone else will cut your nuts off and feed them to you for these respective comments but we as black people take the n-word daily because we fucked ourselves. Sometimes we have NO right to tell someone to not call me a nigger.
Seriously, this whole thing is our fault. We are not “reclaiming” a word and making it ours. We are retarding ourselves back to where we were years ago.
Want to know a reason why other races do not use this word? Because they are too PROUD to use it. Mike, you have freckles and red h air and we clown on you for it but you are proud being Irish. Karen (both of you) your Asian and you are proud of it. My girlfriend Stephanie has an accent and is proud her self. None of these people calls the other people in their races by the racial slurs because they are too proud to use it. That is why “cracker” has NO effect on a white person because at the end of the day it is just a word to them. Not a fucking cop-out.
Ugh.
See you tomorrow, sorry Steve I had to get it off of my chest.
