[sudo-discuss] cuddling it

[hep]

to be more clear:

what you are saying is, the only objections (implying that these are easily
brushed aside) are from the oppressed group that is still to this day not
only victim of this word on a regular basis, but still subject as a group
to the on-going disenfranchisement policies regarding african americans in
this country. from mandatory sentencing based on drugs considered more
common in POC communities, to predatory loan practices aimed at african
american families specifically, to stop and frisk policies that mainly
target minorities, etc etc etc.

that is one article. if you google that song, you come up with countless
critiques by POC social justice activists ripping it apart and all of the
implications and causations of it. i feel competant you can do your own
research to figure out why this is a bad example of groups not affected by
slurs attempting reclamation of those terms by majority privileged groups.
