An old black man telling a young black man he's a "lazy n***a" for not getting a job isn't racist no matter how bad you want it to be

Is the old man acting as a racist? NO.

Is he using a racial slur? YES.

It's not a matter of what I want.

when it's used in a racist context.


Okay, I'm going to go ahead and use it in a non-racist context and tell me if the word magically appears, or if it's still just "****".


The word, "****", is a racial slur.

Now I'll do it with another racial slur:

The word "kike" is used to refer to white ****s, also known as Jews.

That was a preposterously ignorant exercise and you know it

Word filters do not allow for context.

Because the filters on the site can read context, right?

Drop a f@ggot and see what happens. That word is used constantly by young males towards their other male friends, sometimes jokingly and sometimes demeaning

I'm sure the filter will be able to distinguish which one you intend to use. Maybe if you type aggressively it'll know you mean it in a demeaning way
