I do not understand why black people are offended by a word that simpky translates as black or that came from the name of a country in Africa or the name of a river that sounds like that country

@shortstories Because it was turned into an insult and they know, it's used as an insult. It's the same story with the words: Retard, imbecil, moron, ect. They used to be medical terms with real meaning behind them, but they were hijacked by people outside the profession and degraded them into everyday insults.

@SilentSeeker @shortstories Promising scholars could be here

Any word used to refer to a group of undesirables will take on a negative connotation.
@Zergling_man @SilentSeeker @shortstories All humans are 'undesirables'. ;)That's what makes it so easy to lampoon eachother.
