Can I use the word “nigga” if I’m quoting a song? Specifically, the extremely common gesture of sharing lyrics on a blog or profile.

I imagine nobody would suggest it’s offensive for a white person to share the recording (perhaps excluding the RIAA), but printing the word felt different enough to make me hesitate when making a post earlier. Just curious.

oh this is why Black people who receive numerous rape threats, hate and the use of the n word over and over again in their inbox can’t receive any recourse from you or your support. because you still don’t understand that no, the word nigga isn’t for white people, ever. the fact that you didn’t even fucking blank it out shows how out of touch you are. no wonder it “felt” different to type. because it’s nigger for you white folks always. that’s all you view us as mostly anyways. so, no you can’t use it, even when singing or quoting a song without fucking bleeping it out. but i guess you think you should because you let people tell tons of Black bloggers to die and call us nigger all the time and your support does nothing.
