I'm originally from Brazil. I've been living in the US for 21 years. Not being native isn't an excuse. See, you're a born US citizen...let me say, there are other countries that use derogatory language against blacks or those of African descent. People get the whole "a" vs "er". Just because it's in songs and movies (the FCC still censor it for public consumption) doesn't mean it's okay. There has even been debate about people not saying any form anymore in the media. So, no not being from the US is not an excuse. My home country is even more racist than the US.

Dude I'm not born in the us idk why you'd think that. I'm a native speaker because I'm true trilingual and the only reason I got involved is because though you have extremely valid points, the reclaim the word side has extremely valid points too. It has nothing to do with the FCC and of course people from different places will feel differently about it. I think you guys were going after her and gaslighting her in a way when the world she sees does exist and is every bit as progressive as you claim to be.
Also someone who got involved just said "tbh im black af" and that's just ... unbelievable??? Lol???? Who says that.
Anyway, I think it's mature to look into another person's side and realize there is a history, culture, and politic to it.

This is a long thread. I just want to pop in and say as a black person who had lived all throughout the South and has family of all economic classed, whether or not black people can use the n-word is controversial and simply opinion. Like most things involving reclaimed language, there's no right or wrong. Just pros and com's and history. I don't use it myself, but I have a background in studying language and I think the way the OP has been attacked and called ignorant and such is unfair. There are plenty of black people who use the n-word with a diminutive -a and it's no biggie for them. Consider it a cultural difference (yes, black people in the same country can have different cultures) and move on. Some people curse, some don't. Some religious people swear to god, some don't. Some black people say the n-word, some don't. It's really not worth all this drama and debate in the comments section of a BL comic.
