That's probably because you're a pretentious know-it-all pussy.

Are you saying that people should use the N word instead of thug when referring to black thugs?
Just because the N word thankfully isn't prevalent anymore doesn't mean that thug replaced it. Thug was around before that anyway. Your whole stance is flawed. What would be a proper term to describe a black guy that's acting like a thug?
I used thug in a conversation with a black coworker the other day. He agreed and wasn't offended. I guess I should show him your feelings on it and beg for forgiveness

Nothing in general good sir.
Just disappointed you couldn't pull this one like the babysitter. You're losing your game.

And you're dead wrong on this subject in particular. Forgot to put that.

It's a fascinating evolution of that word, tbh. It's not racist in and of itself, but the context has changed drastically to refer almost exclusively to black people in pop culture.
You can blame hip hop/rap artists for promoting what they call "thug life" for this, btw.

Not that you asked for my opinion, but I believe "thug" is absolutely used by SOME people to get around saying "n*****." That is certainly not true for all people, and plenty of people referred to guys like Marshall Henderson and Bill Romanowski as thugs.
But Richard Sherman was educated at Stanford and has never been in trouble in his life. How is he a thug? The word people are looking for is "a-hole." Because Richard Sherman is definitely a cocky a-hole.

How many white guys picking fights in a football game have you applied the label "thug" to? You don't have to respond we both know the answer.
I've seen numerous people call Chad Kelly, Marshall Henderson, Dillon Day, etc thugs on this site. Just to name a few off the top of my head

What? I can't even take this seriously.

Not what I've said at all.

I know?

Well since that's not my stance, your straw man argument is flawed.

You can use thug all you want to describe whoever you want. You may be making no comments on what you believe to be characteristics and traits of the mythical "black community". I just don't live under a rock and I know that people are doing that. Unless you're saying that people have no words to be subversively racist and that thug isn't one of those words.

Cool.

He agreed and wasn't offended.
Good. You probably weren't being racist in that context. Words have different meanings in different contexts.

What are my feelings on this in your eyes? You tried to frame my argument in so many ways at this point I can't even keep track. I just want to know yes or no if you think people use the words thug with any racist connotation? If you have ever heard it used in what you believed to be a racial context. If you say you haven't, then I believe you.

And words can have different meanings in different scenarios. Have you ever heard thug used in a racial context?

Ding ding ding. We have a winner. It's amazing. Some people around here are capable of critical thinking. Words can have complex and adaptive meanings. Take notes 3nOut and Rubble.

You know what. U guys can talk about it and drop it. I live it. I wake up black I go to sleep black and to a lotof people in matter what Ido I'm still just q black guy who can't be trusted loves watermelon and fried chicken.

More than anything what pised me off what really hurts the most is YOuRe RiGHT. Blacjy people are like Muslims you got half that ate trying to do dome good shite and you got half that want to frick every thing up. I love black people I despise ****s with every ounce of my heart. I was a a attle fan until they pulled that shite. I don't care what school you sent to Sherman you acted like a thug from Compton today and set us all back
What uli hate about black people is if you do not have that mentality you're an uncle tom. And regardless if what you do white people will never like toy di if you are a non thug black guy unless you live in NYC or atl you're just sol
On phone and drunk sorry spelling

But by your definition here, I can't call a nocturnal ring tailed mammal a coon because it has been used in a racial sense previously.
That's a slippery slope I'd rather the world not go down.
Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
Pretentious, white guilted dickbreath. That was complex and adaptive.
