Oh God! Breaking news.. People in the South used to use the N word back in the 60s during the civil rights movement. I time period that Paula Dean lived through.

Ridiculous. Her mistake was that she was honest about it. She should have just said she never said the word.. and then everyone would have said "Of course she has said that.. she is old and lives in the South." But it would force people to make the logical conclusion, BEFORE getting outraged.

This is really quite true. We use the word pleb around /ck/ a lot. The N word is used like that in the South, but only in certain social circles. Like it or not, there is a certain "pleb" class of black folks in the South. They aren't any less human, they aren't worthless, or apes or anything like that. But it has to be accepted, that in many cases, you can expect certain "pleb" sorts of things from their type. Stereotypes exist in our brains because it allowed us over the evolutionary course of our species to make vague, generalized, assertions about certain people and situations, and to be more successful on an evolutionary scale from doing so.

I really don't think Paula Dean is a horrible racist. But every educated person in the South that has dealt with lots of different types of people will tell you that there is white trash - pleb white people, and there are "nword" pleb black people. There are irresponsible white folk, and there are irresponsible black folk.

We use terms like, pleb, white trash, and the n word in the south all the time to describe these types of people in certain social situations. It doesn't make you a racist so long as you aren't applying it to all black people and refering to them as apes or slaves or something. It's just an observation of type of person a lot of times.

Some really ridiculous racist people still exist, but do you really think Paula Dean is one of those people?

I'm sure she doesn't flip to BET and start cursing at the top of her lungs just when she see's black people. I'm pretty sure her use is probably limited to "god damnit, look at sheniqua on her fucking cell phone again while ordering a fucking sandiwch at subway..."

Check your facts. It does not mean slave.

Wiki says:

Nigger is a noun in the English language. The word originated as a neutral term referring to black people, as a variation of the Spanish/Portuguese noun negro, a descendant of the Latin adjective niger ("color black").[1] Often used slightingly, by the mid 20th century, particularly in the United States, it suggested that its target is extremely unsophisticated. Its usage had become unambiguously pejorative, a common ethnic slur usually directed at blacks of Sub-Saharan African descent.


Feel free to check tons of other sources.

Whenever someone uses the word "pleb" around here.. replace with the n word. it absolutely does not mean slave.

Yes it does. The definition of the word means, someone who is unsophisticated. Pleb is a synonym, because it also means the same thing.

There is a historical connotation, and stigma to the word, but that does not change the definition or meaning of the word.

I live in the south. It is not applied to black people these days. It is applied to certain unsophisticated black people, the same way white trash is applied unsophisticated white people.

This would be true, that the word was taken back, if it could be used in public.

Interestingly enough, I really don't think her use of the word is offensive to most white people in the south. To a certain extent, it would not surprise me if she comes back from this as I don't think it would affect her rating in the south much at all... there probably weren't a lot of black people watching her to begin with. And most white people would probably use the same word to describe a black person that was pointing a gun at their head. That black person has not certainly squandered any respect that most decent people would have for him, through his actions. She can call that guy ANYTHING SHE WANTS.

To a certain degree, if Paula comes back from this, it will be a small step in white people reclaiming the word. Black people, having given it up, by pointing guns at rich white womens heads. Huh... always seems to be rich white women are the downfall of black people... Almost creepy.

To move beyond racism we have to just wipe the slate clean and any connotation you have to old words just drop them. Let it go. There are lots of old words that hundreds of years ago would be considered offensive but today mean nothing. Do that to nigger too. Just let it go and let's move on.

Theres more at play here than just her saying the N word.

Anyone who doesn't think so hasn't been paying attention.

This is all about internal channel politics more than anything else.

Paula Deen has been a liability in the world of the health food craze that has swept over most of food network and their programming along with any other food focused programming since the start of 2010.

She had increased her liability with the fact that she had diabetes all the time she was promoting unhealthy food on the food network. It was a surprise to me that the network didn't drop her. How hypocritical the whole thing was registered at the public at large, and the fact that she was caught being paid to endorse Diabetic Medications created many conspiracy theories that she was teaching people to cook obesity causing meals, so that she and her sponsors could directly profit.

Come around to this scandal. Either planted or legit.

Why do you think She was on a month to month contract at the Food Network? Almost no one in that industry tends to work on a month to month contract.

So the fact that Food Network didn't renew their month to month contract means she was immediately of the air.

That means Food Network was already planning to cut her, or was expecting something like this to occur. And it means there's a lot more to the whole story then what we immediately see on the surface.

You know, I wish people would stop calling it the "N word" and just say Nigger. It's not like actually saying Nigger would somehow cause tangible physical harm to somebody of a particular race. It's an unpleasant word that anybody with decency shouldn't just go around using it. But still, it's just a word....a measly six letters ordered in a certain fashion.

People need to harden the fuck up and quit letting such trivial bullshit bother them. If I was black and somebody called me a nigger, it would carry the same amount of weight as if somebody called me a douchebag, cunt, or asshole.

As someone else noted, once the words are rendered meaningless, it can have no hold over anyone. There have been thousands of words lost to the English language, and quite a few of them have been hurtful, derogatory words. Let words like "nigger" go down that path.

Semi-related rant. Has anyone else noticed how, Southerners are trying to have this both ways.

On one hand, we're constantly hearing this apologist, 'she didn't know any better, she's from the south,' argument. However, they simultaneously resent the fact that they're routinely mocked by the rest of the country for their unique tendency to precluding certain types of people from receiving basic civility.

So, is The South some kind of racially homogeneous utopia, as we often have to hear, or is The South tortured by prejudices which lead someone like Paula Deen to obliviously discriminate in her hiring practices and to disregard the hostile work environment her businesses created?

Etymological meanings are not the same as modern usage.

In this culture, the word nigger was intended to designate black people as an 'other' who were inherently inferior because of their blackness. Historically, the word was almost always exclusively used as a pejorative.

We do have an awesome military for those times when folk such as the japanese want to sneak attack us or when the nazis would try to nuke new york.

And they would have given the chance.

Roosevelt knew that Pearl Harbor was about to get attacked..... It could have been prevented hours and hours before it happened. He let it happen. Look it up. Same with 9/11. Could have totally been prevented. But it was allowed to happen.

Yes. Yes it is.
That's why when people are being choosy about something, like say, the quality of their food, it's called being "discriminating"
>He had a very discriminating palate for someone so young
>She was very discriminatory in picking out her wedding dress.
>George picked out which cabana boy to fuck using utmost discrimination.

It's funny how America always proclaims to be a "super power" that can detect threats from a million miles away and prevent them. But then always "coincidentally" fail to deter attacks when enemies came to wreak havoc. Hmmm, gee, I wonder why.

I'm new to this thread and I'm not clicking on shit, but there is a big difference between "knew it was one of myriad theoretical possibilities" and "had conclusive, irrefutable information that it was on the verge of happening"

you give these people way too much credit.

Actually, there is a decent bit of legit evidence that Roosevelt did know about Pearl Harbor before it happened. That's not a full on tinfoil hat theory.

I assume you were home schooled or are a butt frustrated canuck, but when I was in grade school our history textbooks mentioned the "Roosevelt knew" theories. this would have been early 80s. where did you get the idea that this was unknown to school kids? it just isn't accepted as an unambiguous fact except by edgy truther types.
