The "R" word
The "R" word is every bit as disparaging and denigrating as the "n" word.
It needs to be censored the same as the "n" word.
If you think about it, some people are still the "n" word, and some are still the "R" word. Some white people are "n" word and some black people are "R" word.
Some people look at white people and automatically think they are "R" word, and some people look at black people and automatically think they are "n" words.
Demand equality.

You're certainly on target with the central message. I use the whole words in my speech. I'm not going to give the racist SOB's the satisfaction of not feeling the sting the words carry as I mean to deliver it to them, I guess the feel good factor plays a role there as well.
That is the flip-side.
Covert ops, shame them for trying to shame us "R" word'ers.
I will also continue to judge individuals based upon their statements and their actions.
I will also continue to judge groups by their statements and their actions.
There will be times that it may be difficult or impossible to separate an individual from the statements and/or actions of their group. We all face these decisions, and must, IMO, do our best to make that separation.

This discussion reminds me of an article I just read by a dyed in the wool liberal, David Brooks, an extremely intelligent Journalist whose latest story is available at the below link. He is also quite obviously a master Lincoln Cultist. Enjoy the article:
