I don't start a lot of statements by saying "As a person of colour", but -- I don't think that having a Caucasian character say "nigga" as a punchline in a fanfic is cute or hip in any way. At all. I find it very disturbing and disappointing that many people in this fandom think it's acceptable.

And yeah maybe Americans are a little fixated on words, but there's a reason for that. The stuff that was allowed in this country for years was horrifying and always had these words justifying it.

I'm from Alabama, when I leave the state I get judged as a racist right off the fuckin' bat. I'm not even gonna TYPE that shit.
