Thanks for offering your perspective on this. I obviously can't speak to what it's like personally - I'm only going off of others' experience and my own intuition for what it would feel like.

> The part that affects me isn’t the word itself, and I don’t personally feel offended by a stranger using it. ...

This is kind of the point I'm trying to make further down the thread. There's a lot of folks saying that 4chan's use of this language is a form of community and culture, rather than meant as actual offense. But I don't think that makes it okay for exactly the point you make here.
