.....Look at my name. Are you actually trying to make the argument that \\\'\\\'I\\\'\\\' don\\\'t know what it\\\'s like to be called a word? Let alone the n-word? Also, \\\"hundreds of years ago\\\"? You do realize that the American UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement (when segregation and prejudicial acts like using slurs was made illegal in professional settings) was only \\\'\\\'fifty years ago\\\'\\\', right? The last-living veteran of the Civil War that ended American slavery died in 1956. Hell, my \\\'\\\'mother\\\'\\\' was alive when it was illegal for her to sit anywhere but the back of the bus or attend certain schools. And slurs and epithets don\\\'t suddenly vanish just because the law made it illegal to say them in certain (mostly professional) settings.

You\\\'re trying to compare that word -- a word that was specifically created to say \\\"These people aren\\\'t human\\\" to a word that describes a \\\'\\\'Political Party that named itself\\\'\\\'. \\\"Nazi\\\" is not a slur; it\\\'s a title and a description of a political ideology. Even the assertion that it\\\'s used to describe \\\"people who did nothing wrong\\\" is ridiculous when there are still \\\'\\\'real life\\\'\\\' Nazis (and people who aid Nazis like the KKK) that utilize an almost identical ideology in the political arena. You are seriously trying to say with a straight face that \\\'\\\'you\\\'\\\' are worried that someone is plotting something against you because they called you a Nazi when right now, real life unnarmed Black people are being shot by both police and random gunmen? You think that if someone right now used the N-word at me, that I \\\'\\\'wouldn\\\'t\\\'\\\' be wondering if that person (at best) is going to go somewhere and plot against people like me or (at worst) come back with an uzi and kill my friends and family? If being called Nazi fills \\\'\\\'you\\\'\\\' with such dread, but you honestly, unironicall believe that Black people can just laugh about the other one, then there\\\'s a serious lack of empathy going on.

Anyway, at this point, I\\\'m getting a mod involved in this, because between this page and the Watch_Dogs one, your tone has been absolutely unacceptable and the stuff you\\\'ve been pedaling on both pages is textbook Nazi apologia.
