This is what happens when friends don't give friends shit for acting like a wigger and you end up with a bunch of Pretty Fly for a White Guys making everyone cringe.
Bruh I don’t think that’s ok,hopefully just ignorance and not malice. even if you change out the first letter you’re still kinda implying other people can be n-words.
That one has me a bit torn because the n-word is used for any black person and obviously meant to hurt them. On the other hand, "the w-word" just means a white guy who dresses and acts like a gangsta rapper from the 90s-00s
Is that offensive? The root of it is, I just don't know if the actual meaning lessens how offensive it is
I mean, they're technically calling black people the N word by proxy (it's meant to essentially be white + N word to refer to a white guy pretending to be/acting black). So it seems like a case of "if you're not black you probably shouldn't say it".
so does digger get a pass because it has context? Or how does this work?
What would the D even stand for? 🤔
who knows, follows the same construction as the other two though.
No I don't think people who use the word "digger" are specifically and purposefully altering the N word and directly referencing it.
You what?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigger
About 130 years ago it was a racial slurs but died out and resurged in the 70s as a dergatory term for white people that try to (poorly and offensiviely) emulate black culture. Aka white trash wannabe.
It could still be used offensively, but it rarely is. I learned the term from a bunch of black American Navy visiting and ended up hanging out with them all weekend. They were shocked to know we have them too and pulled up "beatboxing" videos, realising just how offensive a wigger can be, especially when they start using the n-word in their raps like it applies to them.
