In 2019, If You Still Refer To Yourself As A "Nikka"....

[EBK String]

all groups call themselves words that would be derogatory if someone outside the group said it to them.

This. Ive heard Filipinos call each other FOBs and Mexicans call each other beaner and spic. We dont use they shyt. So why do we have to stop using the word WE took their (cacs) power from, just cuz other races wanna use our shyt. We should police that shyt like how asians did w/ the Lil Pump situation.

We buried the word in ‘07
NAACP | The “N” Word is Laid to Rest by the NAACP

Colored People Buried Nikkas in '07. :mjplease:

Come hold this L

In 2019 if you still call yourself and other black people the most degrading , ignorant and lowest-class word in our language, come hold this L.

In 2019, if your self-esteem & racial pride is at a point where you IDENTIFY with being "just a nikka" come hold this L.

Last but not least, if the premise of this thread makes you angry come hold this L.

The reason we call ourselves and each other that word in the first place is because collectively our racial pride is extremely low . us calling ourselves that word is a reflection of that.

In 2019 and beyond lets work on how we greet each other . that word keeps us in an extremely negative mindset . we lie to ourselves about it being a "term of endearment" when it's really not.

Again, if these words make you angry...you are the problem.

Just some food for thought.

Peace brothas and sistahs, I'm out

So what should we call those types of people?


c00ns and bedwenches need to be called out. They're a cancer.

You call people this in real life?

I feel u. But thats not the word itself thats enabling that. That is more of a societal issue. Words have power as u said. But that power depends on the intent behind the person using it.
The power in words could be trasferred also. Also depends on the energy behind it. Just like the word "bytch" women get mad @ that word of a nikka say it. But they refer to themselves as that all the time. But hell we could start callin women Pokemon instead of "bytch" and depending on how we use it, after a while women gonna have a certain reaction to it.
I see what ur sayin tho. I really hate that logic too. I hate how a breh will be quick to clap another breh just for sellin in his spot or just being unrecognizable. But a cac got free reign to walk thru any turf he pleases.

I’m a woman. I think the b word is actually similar to the n word. I can’t and shouldn’t call you it just because you’re also Black. I have a general thing about calling people out of their name casually anyway but w/e. We’ll have a foundation to suss out how you use the word and the context.

This duplicitous, fake hotep, clown nikka @PhonZhi has the gall to continue to make threads like this but openly stans a white rapper who has said nikka many times, said "I don't fukk with that ****** shyt" and made a racist tape dissing Blacks.

Y'all continue to eat up the shyt these fake ass, behind the computer, internet militants like him and @Hiphoplives4eva serves y'all.

1 star. Phonzhi a fake ass nikka, my nikkas.

 

[KyokushinKarateMan]

I agree. But TheColi is NOT the proper forum to address such a topic. One glance at the majority of the first page replies, should tell you why.

OP

You're right.

The origins of how we have come to be known by that word are degrading and horrifying, indeed

Unfortunately, we are know by that word

Like if Ducks hated being called Ducks, right. And you saw some and you yelled out

Ducks!

They come and beat the shyt out of you (somehow). They explain to you "we ain't no Damn Ducks, Human. Our real name is *quuuaaakkkxx*" [lets out an ill quack in straight Duck language, right]

When people come up and help you up the FIRST FUKCING WORD OUT OF YOUR MOUTH WOULD BE

Ducks

"Ducks fukked me up for calling them Ducks. I hate Ducks now for that"

Even the brutal ass whooping wouldn't separate the words Ducks from the water bird in your mind.

We would go to war with Ducks and kill them all before we would start calling them a different word

Dat analogy :watusmoke:

 

[NAUGHTY]

Thecoli, where everybody is above using the word "nikka", but have no problems calling black people all types of c00ns, wenches, bucks, sambos, Toms, step n fetch its, Jemimas, tap dancers, sows, mammies, Klingon, pomegranates, napkins, Ewoks, suffering succotashes, saskatoons, and all that other racially charged bullshyt.

Shut the fukk up you self righteous, admittedly gay for Denzel ass bytch.

 

[MarcMan]

I'm all for racial pride but the OP is an oversimplification. LeBron James is doing great things in the community and uses the word. Ben Carson is a card-carrying c00n and doesn't.

I go by actions and context personally.

“I’m a nikka he’s a nikka she’s a nikka we some nikkas wouldn’t you like to be a nikka tooooo”
