I'm an impartial outsider who is only filling time until some football starts.
Same here. Our difference is I have history** and the opinions of the supposedly aggrieved on my side. I don't mean to paint you as an SJW if you feel that's inaccurate, but they're who's on your side in this, and virtually no one and nothing else.
[edit]
**And I don't mean merely the origin of the term- in reading, it became clear there was never a definite time it was clearly and only an n-bomb level racial slur.
If you want to argue it's shallow, or corny, or whatever, we can agree, and as I've stated, if it was me, I'd have changed it by now simply based on those grounds. But to continue arguing it is and always has been an offensive racial slur is ignoring the history of its use and the opinions of those it's supposed to offend.
