Ta-Nehisi's nefarious plans to dominate all whites exposed

Damn. We've been figured out:

The only reason the word "nigger" is such a taboo -- and yet is used freely among blacks -- is because keeping it a whites-only taboo is a way for blacks to intimidate and dominate whites

That's some genius over at Megan's blog (as always, thanks for the link-love Megan) who's apparently discovered our blueprints. Can't get anything past that guy. We'll have to be smarter next time. But first we have to do something about those IQ scores, no?

I am shocked, shocked and appalled that blacks have the gall to do this. We whites have worked long and hard to subjugate blacks. We've also cultivated the image of you being too dumb to come up with dastardly plots like this. Shame on you black people.

Seriously, though, the commenter needs to tie this into a Jewish world conspiracy. Then all the nuts can join in.

OMFG, I never realized how much I was being oppressed! The scales have fallen from my eyes now and I am truly liberated! At last, I can realize the dream I never knew I had; the dream of calling black people "niggers"!

And that's only the beginning! I shall call Italians "wops" and Hispanics "spics", and Irish "micks", and Jews "kikes". I shall throw off the linguistic shackles pressed upon me. I never wanted to do it, I never actually wanted to show, you know, any basic human decency to those people. All that crap about "do unto others as you would have them do unto you" is just a liberal blind. After all, I wouldn't mind if someone called ME a nigger.

No, a thousand times no, they MADE me do it, those evil overlords.

And Ta-Nehisi is their evil genius mastermind, plotting for world vocabulary domination!

'Nigger' is so old-school. I prefer the readily accepted 'those people'.

I admit that the first thing I do when someone tells me not to utter the word is find an excuse to use it. But I would never use it and mean it--I've heard the rationale that "nigger" is the equivalent to "white trash," but if that's what you mean just say "trailer trash" (or "sociopath"), apologize to any of your friends who *do* happen to live in prefabricated housing, and get on with your life.

The Jewish thing is more delicate. I'm a gentile, and I've heard Heeb and Yid from non-Jews; it didn't much bother me too much. Just someone trying to get under my skin. But the word "kike" is still quite shocking to me, and "jew" as a verb is almost as bad--just wouldn't say those things. Unless someone told me that I really, really wasn't allowed to, and then I'd probably find an excuse to do it--like with the nigger thing.

But then, I'm bad.

I mean, bad, bad.

How about "people who tan really easily"? "People whose sunblock budget is more modest than mine"? Or: "people who are probably much better at sports than I am, without being any less bright"? It might be "people with an engineering bent," too. (I watched a lot of Mission: Impossible as a child.)
