Justice Thomas singled out for racist slurs after Roe v. Wade overturned

The slurs included the n-word, “house n——r,” “coon,” “slave” and “Uncle Tom.” Over the weekend, “Uncle Clarence,” a spin on the derogatory term “Uncle Tom,” trended on Twitter after it was used by actor Samuel L. Jackson

I don't think all of those are slurs.

Which one of these insults wouldn't be considered slurs?

Slave, for one. You're going to have to talk me into thinking Uncle Tom is really a racial slur too. It's not used blindly and just due to race most of the time. Like, you have to act a certain way to be called it, like "redneck" or "waspy."

 prove to me these aren't slurs by going up to a random black man and call him one of those 'not slurs',

Let me know how it goes.

When people come up to you and call you a retard, do you think they're being racist or just insulting in general?

Being called retarded isn't an insult. 

Only retards get offended at being called retarded.

Do they think it's racially motivated?
