I honestly don’t think I can confidently define if/when there was a shift in morality on this topic.

    I get the feeling his father probably screamed it at him and his brothers while beating them throughout their young and young adult life. So that might have dissuaded usage.

      Ah so do you think he was so racist against black people he turned white? If used in a degrading manner against black people I don’t think MJ should be tolerated to say the n-word probably after he got his first nose job.

        I was suggesting that there would be deep trauma and he’d associate the word (amoung other things) with his father. Not necessarily race.

        He “turned white” because he had early onset vitiligo. It’s why he wore the white glove early on, to hide his skin on his hand.
