No lol. Theres only one way to interpret the n word. That particular c word is rarely used in a nasty way, people who were vey quick to call them a racist didnt even know it could be used that way - its just as likely that the OP didnt know either.

I would respectfully disagree,they have been in the thread since, surely if it was not meant in that way they would have clarified. Did you see the op before it was deleted?

Also, what other way is it used then? I've only ever heard it used as a slur

why on earth would you use that word unless it was intended as a slur. It only has 2 contexts, and the other is eating biscuits and cheese

Yes I saw it, I was aware of the racial connotations that word can have when I first read it, and I never considered it was a potential racial slur in this instance. Partly because I have never heard anyone use that word to mean 'slave owner'. Just seemed like a throw-away-adjective.

A group of people calling somebody a racist because they learned the meaning of the word literally ten minutes ago seems like bullying also assuming that they were a black person, based off literally nothing was a weird twist from Kazanne, which just screams 'motive'. We know nothing of this poster yet some are comfortable with comments like that. Bit grim.
