@RM
He used it sarcastically to a white lawyer of his and only to that white lawyer on texts between them, he used it without the hard R as a joke that clearly had absolutely nothing to do with race but I would not at all say there was no issue with him using it, there certainly was.
The left media didn't care that he used the N word in the context he used it (using it to a white lawyer). Would the media be fine with it if I said the N word to a white person as a joke? I thin the vast majority of the time people use the N word is in a joking context.
but this was a private text between him and his non-black lawyer
So I can privately call a white person, "n***a", it's fine?
I am not really sure what you mean with that there's nobody having an issue with Johnson's use of the term.
Nobody cared when Lyndon B Johnson said the N word(and right after segregation when it was more in everyone's minds). Otherwise we would have heard it in schools. Instead, the mainstream media loves Lyndon B Johnson for starting the war on poverty (even though it caused the poverty rate to stagnate after falling for decades and caused the single motherhood rate to skyrocket among blacks, which made their lives much worse than the N word ever did and this further contributed to the poverty rate)(
Lyndon B. Johnson - Facts, Great Society & Civil Rights - HISTORY).
When he said, "I'll have them n***ers voting democrat for 200 years", he probably met, "Destroy the black family unit through welfare, create family destroying single motherhood, make black people poor, all to get their votes in elections". Fuck Lyndon B Johnson.
even Lincoln himself was a devout racist
This is off topic, but given that Lincoln made society better than he found it, I'd say Lincoln was overall decent.
