I doubt Twitch caught it themselves, but okay.

Uh huh, I know what the dictionary says. But its not reflective of how its often used. Basically you're just angry people use it in a neutral manner, disagreeing with me isn't gonna change that reality.

Also, its funny you seem to think I'm speaking just anecdotally. As if you somehow missed all the music, TV and movies where the n-word has been used neutrally. You're trying to change reality to make an argument.

People who get punished for using a slur are punished by people who deem themselves morally superior. They aren't punished because there is an actual victim. Frankly, I refrain from using slurs for the same reason I don't wear a MAGA hat in public. My moral superiors might make trouble and could use violence to show their moral superiority.

Again, an irrelevant extreme example. You equate my preference of freedom of speech to a fucked up country like Somalia. You give people a little freedom and the end result is Somalia. I can't help but think that's another country ravaged by Islamic influence, but if I were more woke I'd see the real problem is freedom.

How often something is used doesn't change the point put forward the reality is you're unable to argue against it being a slur hence your defence here is to hide behind ignorants using it.

The word has no neutrality that's the point that's why the majority of black people don't tolerate it, that's why majority black countries don't use the word, that's why countries outside of the US which have a black community has drawn a line against it just because you see Lil Wayne or whoever say it on TV it doesn't automatically give the word any neutrality that's the actual reality you're trying to ignore it to for your argument.

No people who use slurs are punished because it's a slur plain and simple trying to say the aren't any victims of slurs sums up your thinking.

No a fully relevant example because that's what you're advocating you only think it's extreme because you don't fully realize the path that direction goes ironically it's US interference trying to bring your notion of freedom that caused Somalia to be how it is so there you go.

Your feelings about the n-word might not change, but that's not reflective of how its used. I'm just bystander who's not offended by words on their own, I'm not you.

Okay, I'm tired of going in circles. Yes, the n-word is used neutrally. I don't care how a majority of people might feel about it, that's not reflective of everybody. There are also words most people are fine with that offend some.

There are no victims from a slur being said on its own. If its a crime its a victimless crime.

Freedom has never lead to shitholes like Somalia. Also, freedom and Islam aren't really compatible. For example, Somalia.
