in fairness, i can see why N. Biggar might want a little leeway here specifically
A Scottish Tory peer has spoken out in defence of using the N-word.
Nigel Biggar argued in a blogpost that it is 'stupidly unjust' for people to be punished for using the N-word if they did not mean it in a racist way.

Why is legacy media ignoring this new report documenting 70 modern day lynchings of white people?
I know why.
Because the Crimson Record actually reports 70 modern day BLACK lynchings—not even including the 6 Black people found hanging in 2026 alone. Here's the thing...

This is a great example of why Jeffries is not the man for the moment, and a bad choice to be Speaker. Instead of hitting the unity notes that Dems are doing well in Michigan and Wisconsin, he’s obsessing about local NYC politics because he’s afraid of losing power and it’s hurting Dems nationally.
WELKER: Do democratic socialists belong in the Dem Party?
JEFFRIES: What I can say is I do not support defunding the police, I do not support open borders, I do not support abolishing the Senate. We're focused on actually solving the problems hard-working American taxpayer want us to solve ...

It’s hard if you actually support what you’re supposed to be attacking.

A good design decision to put the domestic money at the bottom, so you can see that it — putatively Trump’s real business genius — barely moved at all.

the democrats are the teens who think "finally we beat freddy krueger, no way he comes back, don't check the corpse, he's dead for sure."
When Democrats win, each time they genuinely conclude that their victory itself is the proof that the country has turned a corner, Republicans have learned their lesson, and doing anything about what Republicans have done would be divisive and partisan and of course therefore beneath them.
