IF the bolded is true and if there is a sizable portion of (I'm assuming you're younger) young Black folks that this pertains to, then that's a sad, SAD indictment on Black America.
Along with the "N word," it makes you wonder why Black folk are willing to use demonic slurs created by brainless racists and evil slave masters to refer to each other in any way or form. What's next? Black people calling one another spooks or porch monkeys?
It's infuriating thinking of where this slippery slope can lead to.
Da fukk are we keeping these slurs alive for and using them against each other.
Pure, baffling, stupidity.
Bro I feel how you feel about it! Trust me, I speak from experience and experience only man I can’t talk about shyt I never been in or around.
We the only people I ever heard use the word “c00n” in reference to US!!!
I’m 29, in South Carolina bruh…
i done been on the beach walking boardwalk with my cousins and had car of white boys fly by and throw change out the window at us.
I been in Florida on college visit and had me and my lil cousin get called ****** by some corny ass crackers speeding by.
Done had to put hands on a white boy i was cool with because he called my favorite teacher, a black woman, a bytch. This was in 6th grade.
In 8-9th grade I was telling my principle to his face he a racist and that I don’t fukk with em.
Done been through some shyt with nearly all ethnicities but never heard a white person say c00n lol
I stay trying to find out wtf we called ourselves before we called each other nikka. We ain’t even create the gga version.
We perpetuate the cycles. Literally everything.
The moment we change, THE WORLD WILL CHANGE.
Just look at how they having conversations about freeing that former soldier or whoever dude is. That came because white people raised hell.
I had never heard dude name never heard or saw somebody talk about him none of that.
