So Asians can say the N-word no problem?

Was checking public freakout and saw this gem



asian guy dropped the n-bomb and there were 4(5?) black guys none of them said anything, so i guess if you're asian you have a pass?

It's almost like people aren't all the same and react and respond differently in different situations. Great post, very deep analysis you got going on.
Exactly. Its about knowing if you are "in group" (aka know your audience). There are MANY times in my life where I have been in social groups of various ethnic groups and the use of the familiar "Nigga" was used freely. In those groups it was simply a familiar greeting and identifying nomenclature. Never once did anyone say "OMG thats Racist!".... cuz it wasn't. It was just like saying "Bro." This is a reality that many middle class and above cannot fathom.

a white dude can say it in front of one group of black dudes and nothing happens. he does it again next day and these other black dudes might be knocking him the fuck out

There is plenty of racial tension between blacks and asians. This isn't really indicative of there being some sort of unity between the two.

No they can’t, those black people are just cool with it, you could go around the corner or the next store and try that same thing and I promise you it won’t end well.
Mexicans/Blacks get along more than Black/Asian. China got tons of anti-black shit.

Yeah that was my understanding of it.

And even for Hispanics there is a giant “maybe” there based on how indigenous you look.
