    Compositional error fallacy. A racist statement in and of itself.

    Compositional error involving people as the class and skin color as the property. Racism. You are a racist for suggesting such a model to accuse me, Trump, or anyone else of.

    No. He was making fun of the use of the word.

    Yet nigger and honky were used in prime time comedy in the 70s.

    Sure thing, kid. Here, you win. I'm a racist (despite the DNA of my various g-kids and my love for them). You're the scientist non-racist smart guy here. Smarter than everyone else. You win. I dunno what, but sure.... you win.

    What has this poster written which is racist? Or do you just call everyone a racist as your go-to "argument"?

    He made an argument about the origin of the word, which is black. Never "defended using the word nigger", none of that. Because of him stating the word origin -- which is true-- you label him as hating all black people? Are you serious?
