The word has power regardless, once ypu claim it for your own it just transfers the power from the oppresser to the oppressed. The realy irony is that word still has power. Not the power to offend but the power to incite justified violence. It's the same problem us black people have with nigga. Which makes the black guys resulting to violence at the Meer mention of the word yet he can say "queer" with impunity. The knife never gets put down its just pointed else where.
Sure this scene is hilarious, but the show found a surprisingly poignant way to talk about a social issue that has existed in many ways for a long time. But this show can portray this kind of statement in surprisingly clever ways
this is so good because it explains that not the words themselves have power but the intended meaning behind it. taking an insult and giving it a positive connotation helps so much more than banning it.
@@unibrickz2022 race has nothing to do with it? You realize the whole point was the normalization of slurs ... Also, I am white lol, so it's literally not for either of us to say. Let the people involved talk about it, stay in your lane
This video I've only seen the last little bit of. I didn't realize how awesome this entire scene was. As a physically disabled woman this conversation comes up a lot and we need to take back words from people that think that they need to be offended for us.
God the first 5 to 6 seasons of shameless were soooo good. I'm on season 8 right now, and I still love it but it just doesn't feel the same. One of my favorite scenes though
Same, I have high functioning autism/ADHD and to be honest I don't find the word retarded/retard offensive at all! I have disabled friends who say that word! I joke about being retarded almost every day lol!
@@builderphill1361 Not the same. The word is used to degrade Black people. I don’t feel like going into the historical context but it’s there. You can’t compare racial slurs to MH slurs, different subjects.
@@alexwilliams2276 please go into the historical context cause that makes literally no sense, simply saying the n word doesn't mean you're degrading anyone or anything. If he was calling someone the n word that's a completely different matter but that's not how it was used
@@builderphill1361 It does because given the historical context the word was and is still being used by white people to degrade a Black person’s status. When you're saying the n-word with a negative connotation, it can fill anyone’s rage. Both three versions of the n-words and other forms have been used to belittle black people for centuries. I remember the first time being called that word by a racist and then another time by someone ignorant. In one they were white and in another they were non-white. Both hurt. When a Black person gets called that, or they hear it proudly out of someone’s mouth, it reminds them they’re nothing but the color of the skin. And secondly, they remember that there’s more to come. So, when Hiphop set forth to reclaim the word, it wouldn’t be with the hard “r” but now a softer “a.” The now reclaimed slur showed strength, but why couldn’t white or non-white people say it? Because, the word is still use to degrade Black people. See even with the acronym: Never Ignorant Getting Goals Accomplishment That n-word (UA-cam censors sucks) was a homeboy, homie, bro, cuz, whatever-traditionally a man in AAVE-. But when applied to a non-black person, it’s highly offensive because it carries deep seated racism and inferiority. What makes the word controversial is the use among Black individuals, which has been a debated in the community for decades. I don’t want anyone referring to me in that way, regardless of their race. The same can be applied with Queer, some in the LGBT+ community use it and some don’t. Same with dyke but it’s only used by them! The word is so deeply rooted in homophobia, racism (in many cases), and lots of other stuff that’s it’s only okay for the reclaimed community to use it. And because both of those slurs still have that power and is still in use to belittle someone, then it’ll never be okay to be used by anyone else. Even with context, I don’t want anyone calling me that or using that word. I don’t give “N-passes”, my name is right there. (I didn’t reread this and I’m tired, so excuse the parts that may be choppy)

See, this is what reclaiming looks like, but I have queer friends that clearly never been attacked for their neurodiversity rather than their gender identity and orientation. They fling the slur around like an insult. I had students, even my teachers and my own mother called me that because I was autistic. My father never called me that, but he did used it in my presence when describing fish while drunk. I don't think the word can ever be reclaimed for its deep roots in eugenics and forcing neurodiversed and intellectually disabled to sterilization.
