The black community as a whole might not be upset, but there are quite a few that would agree with me that nobody should be using it. These types of slurs need to be erased from our culture. I know I don't speak for all TFPers, but it bothers me immensely and it SHOULD bother the entire black community. The problem is that it's been accepted as a way to poke fun at one another, or put down others even within the black community. In order to move on from stereotypes and labeling, those words have to go.
Sigh. Idealism isn't bliss.
