I will never again let anyone use the word neger or nigger, or any other oppressional term, not as some kind of joke, irony or other way. So, yes, I'm not tolerant. I'm not politically correct, just someone who's had enough of racism, sexism, homophobia, oppression because of religion or whatever. You can call it whatever you want. It's important to fight the use of these words in every context - be it in a classroom, on the street, or even in a alternative mp3-player firmware! Together we can change this world. So I repeat my question: why do you want to keep on using it? To comply to Winamps list of genres? Sorry for making trouble, /Svante 8 sep 2005 kl. 14.51 skrev Jonas H.: > > You still seem to be forgetting that little thing called context.
