Chinahand Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 (edited) scousers, niggas or pikeys? For posterity.... twice i've seen this by woody2 now. what is the meaning ? its what the island is made up of nothing is racist in my posts, nigga is not a racist word Woody2, I'm struggling to understand what you are hoping to achieve here. You say the Island is made up of these three groups of people. That is quite categorically false - they represent small to tiny proportions at best. I think you are being very provocative with the n word*. I think you are trying to make a semantic point that some black people use this word with this spelling themselves - a very small proportion, usually young and provocatively foul mouthed. Just because some people say fuck doesn't mean it isn't a swear word. The same applies here. You come over as being demeaning, provocative and even aggressive towards people. You don't like benefits scroungers and lay-abouts. Neither do I, but these groups are different from the people you have labelled in pretty nasty language. You don't usually post like this. My advice would be to stop digging. Edited to add: and the p word too. Edited June 3, 2015 by Chinahand 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest, I did just that, and from the urban dictionary: Nigga is a word which evolved from the derogative term "nigger". Tupac best defined the distinction between the two. NIGGER- a black man with a slavery chain around his neck. NIGGA- a black man with a gold chain on his neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chinahand Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Sections of various groups have attempted to appropriate an insult directed at the group to depower it. That is in nearly all cases a very controversial thing and other sections of those groups have remained deeply offended by the use of the word, even by other group members. I do not think there is a need for people to be gratuitous in their language. But as ever Manx Forums isn't known for people displaying self control. Shame. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piebaps Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I see this all the time and just don't get it! Time after time after time, a thread is thrown off the rails by calling each other names and so forth. Come on guys, have a little teasing by all means, but please stop it there... please? This post is very good and kinda sums it up for me. Have a look back to the start of MF and see the different tone in the threads back in 2004. There's none of this petty nonsense. It's interesting however that paul thinks its OK for tamelf to ignore society rules but woody must obey them. Not sure I understand the thinking there. Surely if tamelf can mess around with the courts playing semantics then woody should be able to on here. Not condoning woody's use of the n-word mind in the same way that I don't condone tame's foolishness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody2 is obviously in the in crowd. Only a couple of weeks ago someone was practically lynched on here for using the word spastic. lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
