It's not a difficult concept. Just don't say it. The word doesn't have any power above the comradery between black people and hatred coming from a white person. The power dynamic is what's important.

I never said it was difficult, it's just ironic. I don't say it. Can you read or are you just saying what you are thinking? It has a lot of power, it can make a room erupt into a riot in an instant or cancel your whole career/life...Look at Morgan Wallen for example..

Look at Morgan Wallen for example…

Would have been so easy just to not say it, unless it was in his heart.

I don't agree or disagree with that but that has no relevancy. My brother in Christ, I was simply giving an example of how powerful the word is.
