    Yeah I won’t be taking advice from white people on my problems or race issues. Thanks but you should keep all of that to yourself.

      Keeping to yourself? Might be the best advice you gave out that you should take, especially if you’re going to be judging people like how you do.

        No I can almost guarantee I’ll be calling you out for some other dumb shit you’ll say in the future, that I’m sure of.

          Something dumb like, idk, repeating racist talking points? Judging people from an entire area as stupid? Looking down on other people’s beliefs? Picking a flight with someone over mountai esthetics? Accusing someone of using a slur when it’s a word you just learned and didn’t bother to research? Assuming someone’s race and making ad hominem fallacies? Saying class war doesn’t exist? Ignoring history?

          It’ll be an honor to compare my meager works with such an expert, I look forward to your tutelage.

            Yes you’ve made it very clear you have no idea what you’re talking about, and dropping melungeon is 100% a slur. There’s nothing to discuss here, but I’m sure I’ll see something in the future.

              So wait, you think slurs can’t be reclaimed. So you think black people can’t use the N word? Another wild take there.

                Yes imagine thinking that slurs are bad! Crazy take. Tell me you’ve never spoken to black people without telling me.

                  You’ve… Never heard of black people using the N word as a way of cultural self empowerment before. Fascinating. So why do you think people can’t reclaim slurs? How do you feel about LGBT+ people using “queer” and so on?

                    My girlfriend is black you literal trog - she and her entire family are against using it because 1) it’s ugly and 2) it makes the person using it look ignorant.

                    Exactly the same for words like queer, though in this context you’re looking for the F slur - which you 100% should never use, period.
