Yet Libs have decided "negro" is offensive.

The MAGAs have a truly frightening agenda, which includes rescinding the Civil Rights Act. See Project 3025 for the horrifying details.
I don't have the arrogance to tell a black person that he should just "move on." I'm sure he would LOVE to do just that, but I'm aware that even in these days of racial "equality," non-white people are subjected daily to slights and insults great and small--i believe the term is "microaggression."
And make no mistake, being famous doesn't exempt a black person from that abuse.
Making America great is only frightening to nuts.

"Negro";may be an accurate term, but it continues to carry negative connotations, and if somebody doesn't want to be called that, we should respect their wishes.
The sentiment that Boiler calls "Liberal" (idiot misspelling included) is simply an effort to avoid being offensive. Being pretty familiar with Boiler's personality at this point, I can understand why that concept riles him up so much.
If an idiot is offended when no insult is intended...that's the idiot's fault.
I literally read an article where the Liberel writer admitted that Liberals misidentified Eskimo as a derogatory name. He went on to say that even though it was never derogatory, that because Liberals have identified the word as derogatory, many people believe that it's derogatory. For that reason, the writer told us, the word shouldn't be used. Can't make this shit up.

Okay, but that's not the N word that Reggie was referring to. And is it liberal people, or African/Black Americans that find it offensive? Pretty sure there are a number of conservative African/Black Americans that find Negro offensive as well.

Poor Reggie. Worth over $20 million dollars and all he wants to do is complain about how it used to be and not how it is today - poor baby.
It's not asking too much to avoid language that may be offensive. That's common decency, so I can understand why our MAGAs don't comprehend it.

What used to be no longer is.
Simple question, Boilerman, David, etc. Name a year that America was great, according to your standards.
It takes some guts to answer a question like this, so I'm really not expecting any responses.
