“Attention to all blacks who plan to vote for Trump,” the sign outside New Era Baptist Church reads, “you are an ignorant stupid negro.” The other side says, “Warning African Americans: A vote for Trump will put Blacks back to picking cotton.”

    FFS dude, even a casual look at a dictionary would tell you that it is, in fact, a slur.

    Even the most non-offensive definitions of “Negro” incorrectly describe it as a different race, as if black people were not human. So even in the BEST POSSIBLE CONTEXT you’re still using it as a racial slur.

    I can also say with 100% certainty that you are not black. Only non-black racists try to claim that Negro is not a racial slur.

      I would have considered your point, but it’s pretty clear you are absolutely unreasonable and presumptuous. Of course you think I’m prejudiced, because it’s a projection of who you are.

        Did you just pull a “No I’m not, you are!”

        Dude, wow… just, wow.

        Dont lie. You would never have considered my point. Because you’re more concerned about being “right” than actually changing your viewpoint.

        Ive presented straight up facts. Also note that you didn’t even refute my argument. You are not a black person. Ask yourself how I could know this. Then try to understand how little of your own thoughts are actually yours.

        Maybe if you do that you’ll learn to deprogram yourself. But hey, I get it. It’s easier to blame other people for your shortcomings.

        I won’t respond any more to any further arguments on your part.
