"Racist" is an offensive word for which you owe us all an apology. Supremacist is also offensive. We don't call ourselves those words so why use them? If I call a black a nigger then I'm calling him my own interpretation of a black. You are doing the same by referring to us with those stereotypical slurs.

If I call you an ignorant, bigoted fuckwit, then that's just my interpretation of an inbred, Bible-thumping, moron.
Damn, that's fun.
So, let's sum up that argument:
1) Calling me a racist or a supremacist is offensive, even if it is accurate.
2) If you call me a racist or a supremacist, you owe me an apology.
3) Calling me offensive terms like "racist" or "supremacist" is morally the same as calling a black person a n*****.
Seems to me the logical and cogent conclusion from (1), (2), and (3) is:
4) If I call a black person a n*****, I owe them an apology.
Better start now, Natman... I suspect you've got a lot of apologies to give out. ^_^
'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean -- neither more nor less.'
It's not the word, it's the intent.
If you use that word when you know it causes offense, then your intent is to offend.
Racist and Supermacist are words that describe the actions of a person who intentionally offends along racial lines, or expresses opinions that place their own group above that of another.
In other words, eat shit.
Of course, you may know, Natman, that nobody who has a problem admits it and, in this line, nobody who is doing something wrong uses this name(I´ve never heard an alcoholic calling himself as such). You may consider that black, Asian or Hispanic are, just by the mere fact of existing, inferior to you. That´s what matters and those are the names we label people like you. We could call you Willie, and still have the same effect, and you´d complain again and start all over. The core problem, and what annoys you, is that we disagree, that we consider it evil and that your position is evil, childish and not popular.

A piece of cowshit can call itself a cookie all it wants, but it won't smell any better.

So does this mean you're okay with us calling you racists and supremacists?
Ok, I am sorry that you're a rascist,supremacist, neo-nazi, closeted scumbag. How's that ?
Confused?
