One can surmise this is a commonly-used phrase in his private conversations

    I haven't heard someone defend the n-word with "it means someone who is ignorant" in a long time, but I'd peg this guy for that.

      Wait, are you meaning to say that "I just mean it as a general term for ignorant motherfucker" was ANOTHER thing from The Boondocks that I had just assumed was a joke satirizing race relations, but was in actuality a 1:1 recreation of something that real people actually do?

          I shared a room last year in rehab with someone who casually used the gamer word in the way you described. He was like...at least 50 years old.

          So anyways I stole his beanie that he wore almost daily and wiped my asshole with it after I told him "stop using that word" and he refused.

          I don't feel bad about my actions in the least.

          To be clear, I'm quoting the season 1 episode in which Riley, Ed Wuncler III and Gin Rummy try to kidnap Oprah but accidentally kidnap Maya Angelou instead.

            MF Doom soundtrack, solid action scene, the "Black Power Glove", kidnapping Bill Cosby

            What a great show

            Must be confusing it with the thugnifficent episode. Either way. yah, that happened all the time in the 90s and frequently on conservative radio talk shows.

        I mean, the Boondocks is satire but Huey is also shown to believe in a lot of that critique against black culture.

      Brought to you by the same people who gave us:

      The f-slur just means a lame person. It has nothing to do with gay people! proceeds to call the next effeminate man he sees that word

      The b-word isn't misogynistic. I use it as a gender-neutral insult! proceeds to casually refer to women with this term in conversation instead of just saying "women"

      and let's not forget

      The r-slur isn't ableist! That's just what I call everyone who pisses me off while gaming! makes this the first thing he says when he sees a person with an intellectual disability

      Anyone who doesn't mind using these words in these so-called """"non-bigoted"""" contexts most likely will not mind using it to be bigoted.
