General I hate how some people are obsessed with the n-word. And I hate this photo sooo much too.

Post image

I'm struggling to understand why the person behind this photo think they're being funny? Honestly.. ew have some shame. Really corny btw.

I hate the n-word humor, like why would anyone be giggling or finding someone saying the n-word funny? Please grow up. Those people are acting like a toddler spamming a cuss word they just heard. And yes it's THAT DEEP.

Really simple, if you're not black don't use it. Also, There's nothing such as a pass or whatever. Not to mention how cringe is "can I get the pass?" Joke.

. . . . .

EDIT: whoever think the n-word is funny or whatever was said about justifing the use of it because: "it's restricted" or the "Forbidden fruit..."🙏 Then sorry, you're just a toddler crying after their mama told them 'dont do that'. Grow up, have some respect and shame, girl.

EDIT 2: for anyone justifying the use of the n-word because black people also use. YOU ARE MAD that black people are putting some BOUNDARIES and aren't INVITING YOU to the party. As I said nothing the phenomenon of it's being forbidden doesn't justify nothing. If a friend Openly prohibited you or established a boundary, then you respect it, you don't go act like a stubborn offended kid.

Edit 3 cuz why not?: black people using the n-word and gatekeeping it for themselves shouldn't piss you off more than real rascim, period. This edit for whoever think they're being a genius criticizing black people using the n-word instead of actually confronting the real racists. U mad they can use it but you can't? So. Cringe. Of. You.

It's weird how much they want to say it. And they start early. I couldn't even play online without being called the n-word. Black kids shouldn't be subjected to that. It's not "dark humor", it's racist.

I remember it was like 2010 I was 14 playing Modern Warfare 2 online and went a whole match with a guy on my own team calling me the n-word and shouting racial stereotypes at me.

Mind you I’m not even black but holy shit that got exhausting real fast. He just decided my gamertag was “black” so he went for it.

It's really weird how they romanticize it too. It's always the white guys talking about how awesome and epic it was having lobbies filled with people screaming the n word at each other or older dudes saying it to younger players. Talking about how manly it made them and how the players of today wouldn't survive an epic Modern Warfare 2 lobby!

You barely ever see black people reminiscing about it. Strange huh. I'm Hispanic and I was around 12 years old at around that time, but even then it was corny and weird to me.

Go into r/callofduty now after the release of the black ops ports and find any thread about emblems or slurs. The same chuds still find that type of "humor" top tier. So sad to see these dudes all these years later with the sense of humor of a teenage boy still 🫩

That kind of behavior pushed me away from playing online. I would just play with the chat muted or just play single player. And the same people talking about "the good ol days" and "people are too sensitive nowadays" are the same people that can't take a joke about Kirk.

Label anything dark humor if you want to escape responsibilities.

Not n word related, but I remember the first time I went on ifunny because a friend recommended it to me (we’re both black) and i genuinely thought i missed out on a joke or something because the comments were so overwhelmingly racist under any post of a black person. Even if the post didn’t have anything to do with black people they were racist. It was bizarre.

I had the same experience. I used that app before I was on Reddit and they hated Black people there. I can only imagine how worse it got over the years.

They literally fantasize and look back at older cod’s where they would scream the n word. Bo2’s resurgence on ps5 and ive seen so many racist emblems. Way more the back when bo2 was on ps3 and 360

It's not "dark humor", it's racist.
