Why is using racist slurs cool and funny?
Do you use racist slurs when having private conversations with your friends?
I say all sorts of un-pc things amongst my friends in private conversation. What’s acceptable in good company isn’t always the same as what’s acceptable in public. Take a lot of things we say to eachother out of context and it can absolutely be a bad look that would be difficult and awkward to explain. It’s something that has crossed my mind many times. My circle of friends is like a Benetton ad when it comes to diversity. So jokes about race are frequent and at times being the white guy in the room it does make me take pause and I often worry that we take it too far and should perhaps dial things back even though I know at the end of the day we’re all mostly on the same page when it comes to real issues of race and diversity.
