The tweets inevitable are from young people but i would wager that whilst they have been taught that racism is wrong and here are a current list of words you cannot use at the moment (subject to change) but they have never been taught or discussed the fact that black people can say use the word n+gger or chocolate and so when they hear it they think its unfair

I mean where is the line drawn - alesha's mum is white but not her dad so its ok but if your parents are white but one grandparent is black then what? What if you are Sri Lankan can you you say it of Fijian? etc. How black do you have to be?

This is the problem, people over-thinking it. Maybe trying to look too hard for if they should be offended or not. Racism is pretty obvious when it happens so the fact that all the offended people don't seem entirely certain on what they're offended about kind of shows that there's not really anything to be offended about.
