This bullshit again. Arguing about semantics when all that counts is intent. If both sides stopped arguing about meaningless words maybe they'd have more time to fight the actual racism in the country that is not done by words. I guess the power to be able to block someone else's words from being said no matter the intention is way too alluring.

Pro tip: if you don't like certain words to be said, stop giving them power by making them taboo.

That is easy to say when you are not the target of said words. If you are black father or mother, the idea of your kids having live through racist statements just to hopefully depower them is a lot to ask.
