@siennajantzen1158 but words come with context and history. If the word was hurled at everyone, everyone could say it without consequence. But it wasn't, so what is the real point in "fighting for your right to say it."
I'm one of those people that could be open to this side a lot more....but im not because this entire this is a good example of what bad faith actors do. There's not a universe where anyone should be ENCOURAGING someone to say a racially charged word and then claim we're inn a spiritual battle next week. Pick one....either you're the type to encourage people to same dumb things just because it's in a song (bc you take your moral cues from rappers), OR you're not encouraging degeneracy because you believe it's going to far and you want to fashion a better world. Candace always makes it seem like she wants to do the latter, but then you have this girl on and first 10 mins of the interview youre fangirling and "granting her permission." Candace isn't dumb, she knows the black community is having conversations about this and that the divide on the usage is largely generational. But this how she chooses to "start the conversation."
I'm not dumb and neither is anyone else. This girl isn't unique or special because she woke up one day and decided to use something controversial to make a point. When I listened to the full thing, she could've made the same point and actually had people listen to her without the stupidity of thinking "let me say this racially charged phrase so I can go viral." This is all part of the problem we have in America....these content creators are doing and saying all kinds of stuff to go viral and get these content deals. So then you go and platform this one?? Because why? She "deserves to be heard"? We have free speech in this country yes, but no one has to listen, care, or think what you're saying makes sense -- that is where you are wrong. I'm allowed to judge the heck out of a grown woman who is is raising children who decided to use degenerate language for fun and then cries that people judge her. This is the ultimate example of how victims are manufactured when it's actually their own fault. Read: This woman is a manufactured victim of her own making.
I'm not sure what values she has when she makes the choice to use the n-word when it's irrelevant to the point you are making.....again what was the point?? To go viral. And what is the point platforming her? To explain to people when it's productive in society to use the n-word????
Listen if you guys really believe in free speech, then you need to understand that the other part of it is responding to dumb speech. That's exactly what this was. Just dumb. And that's why I'm not a conservative because I've seen you guys jump through hoops to justify all kinds of mess that is just plain wrong. Y'all love to talk about facts and truth, but never examine one's motive. It's the exact exact playbook of the dems and yall are clearly no different with the race-baiting.
One such racially charged word would be the use of "crack3r" that was thrown at white people. Legitimately curious when it would make sense for me to use that word to drive a random point that actually had nothing to do with the word??? The mental gymnastics and jumping backwards yall are doing will likely come to bite you in the butt when people start using all the slavery terms for fun lol 🤷🏾♀️.
Lastly, I love seeing Candace's followers be so open but close minded at the same time. Candace seems to have so much empathy for this "poor white woman who didnt deserve to be criticized" (LOL, by the way). If that's how you're handling bad behavior we should be discouraging in society, then don't be mad when people encourage other degeneracy you don't like🤷🏾♀️.

This interview is both great and upsetting for me lol. I'm landing on mixed feelings because everything that Amber said is what so many liberals who are Christian have been pointing out. For example, the Rnb artists on Diddy's album lead song "What's Love" (his latest album) are Christian. There are many of us in entertainment and other fields deemed "progressive" because we lean into the social justice warrior and savior that Jesus was when he walked this earth and is. He literally sat with prostitutes "on the other side" and brought justice to those deemed unworthy in his day (Psalm 82, Isaiah 1:17, John 8, Matthew 8). Many of us are independent or independent but liberal leaning bc we know where God took us from....it's difficult to make sound decisions when you are trying to do so alone and being attacked (by people like Candace sometimes -- we gotta be honest). I hope this conversation with Amber actually is a door for the conservative Christians that prefer to act like Pharisees: people are not performing for you. This is people's real life's and everyone isnt born with all the perfect circumstances that the right often attacks people for....Whether it's black youth in urban cities, or disadvantaged white young men in Appalachia.
If conservatives (and liberals!) dialed back that hive mentality, we'd be able to see the issues we're dealing with in this country with clearer eyes. Bc, for example, many years ago I worked in the seaport and shipping logistics industry. I've seen these drug busts and I can tell you.....there are NO drugs coming into the U.S. without an AMERICAN distributor on the other side + American demand + our country's economic policies 10x the issue. If baffles me that folks who are America First, don't get that in order to be a big dog in the world, our country has done A LOT of dirty work by both left and the round....we didn't get there by telling the truth and playing nice. A lot of the issues we have are our own making. That's just one example, but we frame our problems in "left" or "right" language that digs at the other side, rather than objectively looking at the problem.

I'm appreciating Candace's content more and more for exploring the topics media and journalists are afraid to cover. But this (35:23) is the reason Candace will be at odds with the majority of black folks...
I just find it odd that most times she talks about black folks, she tends to fall into using the same tropes as jokes that she's purporting to be against. It's odd that Kentanji is "ghetto" according to Candace, this lady is also "ghetto" according to Candace, and sooooo many others now that I think about it because I've enjoyed her show for awhile.
The only reason I'm bringing this up is that Candace often makes it seem like "she's not accepted" by Black America. Really, I think the issue is that she tends to use the same old tropes that people are trying to move beyond.
If I was whyte and (1)called all the other whyte people I did commentary on red necks all the time; and (2) only belittled them in front of 80% a Black audience...I'm sure it would get annoying and ppl would probably tune me out....
Because, trust, it's not about getting feelings hurt -- I truly don't think the people who even dislike Candace really feel hurt by her single point of view or observations -- but I think she rubs black folks who might agree with her the wrong way because of her preference to make unnecessary jabs that don't have anything to do with the argument.
In this case, this woman wasn't even being ghetto so it came off slightly cringe. It's like, are all the black people she knows all the same type that snap their fingers and necks like Candace does when she's making jokes at her community's expense?? You just lose people on the way to the truth if you don't know how to relate to people well. And for some reason, it's clear Candace finds it hard to connect with people that look like her for some reason...maybe this is the reaosn. Obviously don't know Candice personally, but it seems like the black community will always be the thorn and her side that she pretends doesn't hurt. When you relate to your own community like that (whether you are black, Jewish, from backwash virginia, or wherever), of course people will not care to listen to you. That old adage of "people don't care what you know, until they know that that you care" is very very true!
I've seen a lot of growth in Candace over the last two years alone, I'm hoping that in the oncoming years, she figures out how to be a voice in the black community because she, like others who are conservative and black, are important as we tackle some of our unique challenges just like every other group.
(In any case, I'm definitely oraying for you, Candace! The good thing is that the Lord doesn't leave us hanging and uses all of our experiences and mistakes for his glory. Keep sticking with Him and he'll show you how to move!)
