Flavie dear, will you take Elizabeth’s place. I recommend this exquisite creature’s bubs to you,” the Abbess adds, “suck them while she tickles you: in view of Volmar’s tastes, you’d best run your tongue into her anus while, bending over you, she gives you the benefit of what her mouth can do…. I’ll adjust myself so as to be able to suck both her ass and cunt while she renders you those same services. And finally, as for myself — speak, my beloved, I am here to do your bidding.” Warmed by the sight of what had been done for Volmar: “I’d love to embugger you,” said I, “with this instrument.” “Then do so, my darling, do whatever your heart desires,” was Delbene’s humble reply; she presented her buttocks. “There,” said she, “mark it well. And spare it not.” “Willingly!” I cried, sodomizing my instructress.

>tfw your voice squeaks when you shout out "Willingly!" and the class laughs at you and your crush turns around and looks at you

I always loved doing that.

Anyways, go back to /b/ summerfag.

theres nothing wrong with saying nigger, you filthy nigger
what is wrong with you to be so scared of a word?

It's either totally uncomfortable normies that are fearful about social repercussions
Or it's edgy retards from /pol/ who think being rude and blunt is some great enlightened insight.
Just say "nigger" without saying "NIGGER" constantly just to feel liberated from history and society.

It is a legitimate concern that exposing kids to racism might do more harm than good. But if that is a concern then don't teach them the material at all, don't try to half ass it if you're worried they're not mature enough to deal with the reality of things. Just shelter them and let them stumble into the real world when they turn 18 and learn that they've been lied to.

>not enunciating nigger loudly and off-rhythm with the rest of the paragraph, casting contrast between the racially charged word and the rest of the bland text
pleb.

>class takes turn reading
>too worried about my turn to actually absorb any information.

Of Mice and Men is a high school favourite (or at least it is here in the UK, I imagine being American it probably is over there as well), and I feel it's a good way to teach kids about the history of racism. You can explain why the word is there, and it's proper context, and yet because the book has an anti racist message you can do a lesson on Crooks and be confident the book is doing them good rather than harm.

I am a teacher, and my class has a mix of black and white kids. The black kids never shy away from the word, or complain when other kids use it during reading. Everyone seems to like the book.

I hated popcorn reading where people got to choose who read next.

this was the only time people got to pick on the school bully in my school. people knew that he read at a low grade level so they'd pick on him to read and he'd have to stutter his way through a paragraph

Awful

How could exposing kids to racism cause harm to Western societies? The West is not only the least racist and most diverse civilization in modern history, but it also on the precipice of demographic and cultural collapse because so many Westerners are anti-racist. If we're to mitigate the atrocities of demented and suicidal progressives, kids need to understand the legitimacy of racist ideas from a very early age

cringy

>read nigger out loud
>class laughs
Being Slav is nice.

>history of racism
kill yourself. Why are you even on this board?

why does nobody realize that nigger was just a common appelation for a group that we thereafter referred to as negros, then blacks, then african-americans, and now blacks again? Race hierarchy was more evident in the past so therefore old terminology must be swept away by the great tide of progress? If I refer to a black as a Negroid am I suddenly a spooky 'scientific racist'? Fuck off.

minority rebranding is nothing but historical revisionism; by doing away with the word "negro" we instantly lost access to the wealth of sociological information collected in eras prior to our own.
>Who cares what people had to say about "negros" as recently as the 1950's? It's 1964 and I only know "blacks" ! Fuck racism and fuck white people!

>The West
>most diverse civilization in modern history

Are you retarded?

Underrated

But "negro" isn't pejorative is it?

>teacher just skips the juiciest chapter of the book because he's a prude

since they call theirself negri and the race is negroid....

>popcorn
What?

I am of course aware of that, which is exactly my point. By explaining how the word was not considered racist at the time we can explore how language and meanings change, the different between the use of such words then and now, and, indeed, discuss the history of racism itself which directly ties onto one of the themes of the novel.

I'd advise that you take you're own advice, but I'd prefer that you learned something and move on.

I'm racist and I'm fucking proud of it!

It's just a word, nobody older than 12 would care.

>“There,” said she, “mark it well. And spare it not.” “Willingly!” I cried, sodomizing my instructress.
I kind of want to start reading De Sade for comedy's sake. This is really funny.

Ah. I overestimated you. Nevermind.

What could I possibly have learned from this post? Racism (pure discrimination, hatred based solely upon race and none of its attending factors) is a unicorn.

btw it's a novella- hope you learned something

not me, but trips of truth?

that's such an easy issue to overcome

ffs, lad

Gross oversimplification

>when the teacher asks you to read every part because she likes your 'smooth, silly voice'

The point is that, when the word 'nigger' was used casually in the past - and, as you said, had similar mean to 'african-american' in today's world - blacks were at a considerably lower social standing than they are now, giving the word as of today an inherent demeaning quality. Your rational fault here is that you're looking at these words in context of just their time frame of initial use, but we instead need to view them as they have existed throughout history, especially considering that all the words/phrases you mentioned are still used today, which (as ironic as it is) is the whole point of the subject matter. Although, suppose that wasn't convenient for your fragile, biased argument.

t. victim of molestation

Not really. Only blacks would care and their average IQ is about 85, putting them around the mental age of 12

Steinbeck was a preachy retard and also a literal socialist

He should be banned from schools

Name a more diverse civilization. And I mean "diverse" in the dictionary sense of the term, not "diverse" as in "non-white".

Liberals are so fucking suffocatingly self-righteous holy shit

Diverse ≠ 90% black

>socialism is bad
>public schools

>implying public school is good
He also supported the Soviet invasion of Finland

>Putting them around the mental age of 12

This isn't how IQ works, so you couldn't be more wrong. Unless, that is, every single black person is the exact same age (which I'd hope even you are intelligent enough to understand isn't possible).

Because IQ is found by dividing the mental age of the subject by the physical age of the subject and multiplying by 100, you would first need to know the physical age of the subject before you make any claim about their mental age.

So, basically, you have no idea what you're talking about, and your argument has absolutely no merit. All you've succeeded in doing is showing the sad state of your own IQ.

>That kid that said "nigger" without pause and always said it slightly louder than every other word.

You realize the irony of your statement, right?

>defender of newspeak

Not Reddit, just pointing out that his argument had no foundation and would've been better off not being posted

except I didn't use or reference any newspeak even once in that paragraph, unless you get triggered by the word "inherent"

>Female teacher reads an erotic passage.
>She blushes, salivates and her voice trembles.

Wow people really do take diversity to mean nonwhite. I thought that was just a meme.

I know where we are, but even though we're all really retarded and biased on this site, people generally advocate for logical and rational thought on this board, both of which were abandoned in the posts I replied to. The types of people who say stuff like "it's le 4chins bro!" are usually the 14 year olds who surf /b/ past their bedtime then talk about last night's threads the next day with their friends at lunch.

This is just sad

renaming niggers negros and negros blacks is 'newspeak'
it's an attempt to absolve them from their past

>theres nothing wrong with words

Words don't even have meaning, there's no greater context associated with the signifiers honestly, it's all just a bunch of unconscious children slapping their heads against social walls. What mooks.

Naw, but seriously, you're a fucking idiot parading around as an intelligent person. Words exist within a social context, not in some kind of extra-human void which we pluck them from as we need them.

Calm the fuck down Derrida.

Can you name another civilization with a broader range of ethnicities from all over the world inside it? The closest you can get is the Roman Empire and they were racist as fuck.

Right, I'm not saying you shouldn't do it, I'm saying it needs to be more decisive. Cause what I see so much these days is teachers trying to include controversial material that they clearly believe their students are not mature enough to handle and then watering it down for them, which I find abhorrent and completely defeating the point of education. That's actually anti-education. Personally I question the merit of teaching high school or below aged kids about heavy social issues because I believe they don't know enough and haven't matured enough to really comprehend their importance or form real opinions about them. But that's the catch-22 isn't it? If they don't start learning about it at some point how will they ever become informed? I guess the lesser evil is having a bunch of self-righteous teenagers running around thinking they know the truth or whatever because at that age they at least don't have any political agency and have time to mature and learn more about how the world works. It's just that so many of them go from that straight into post-secondary education and only get that feeling of self-righteousness reinforced and their ideas are never challenged and their horizons never broaden and you get another crop of multiculti drones instead of thinking adults.

No of course I can't, because 'western civilization' doesn't actually mean anything and you can use that term to refer to as broad or as narrow a category as you like. The case could be made that any country with a western style government i.e. a parliament and a constitution has been westernized and absorbed into western civilization and if you apply that flexible category to the entire world than of course I couldn't name something more diverse, do you see? You have begun with a premise so imprecise I doubt you even started with a concrete limit to 'western civilization' fixed in your mind, and when I provide an alternative e.g. the Achaemenid Persian empire which permitted under its suzerainity poleis in Greece, New Kingdom administrative structure in Egypt, and decentralized tribal rule in Afghanistan vs. 'Western civ's' universalist moralist raison d'etat that "to protect these rights governments are instituted among men" etc. which does not tolerate any deviation, and proclaims any state that does so i.e. Islamic Republic (Iran) or Islamic State an international pariah and target for destruction, your concept of what is included in western civilization will expand to whatever size your argument needs to maintain your own assertion and personal sense of correctness.

In what class would they ever read this? Sadomasochism 101 at uni?

It's that retarded way the class "reads" a book, where you have to suffer through the kids mispronouncing every work and generally you are lucky to get through several pages of just constant reading and switching off every paragraph to someone else.

Spam filters keep picking up anything I'm trying to say related to math so I'll just tell you that you're fucking retarded and should go back.

To give an explanation related to it's when you pass on what you're reading - "popcorn"-ing to who will read next. So the kid in class popcorned to the teacher so that he would have to say nigger out loud in front of a class of black kids.

Last semester I tweeted a joke with the word nigger in it (innocent joke directed at my white friend) and some black activist with 22k followers found it and retweeted it and told his followers to attack me and by the next day it had over 5k retweets and I was getting constant death threats. They found the college I go to and tweeted the number and I imagine called it a shit ton of times reporting me all the while I didn't notice because my notifications were off on because I was with my family for the weekend. So I turn them back on and it's people tweeting where I live and instructions on how to get there from major cities and my moms phone number and the schools number and shit like that and by the end of the day MY account got banned. I make it back to school and have an email telling me to come see some dude across campus about violating the student code of conduct so I go and the guy is a 65 year old gruff southern republican. He called them pussies and said the joke wasn't even funny enough to warrant the outrage. He offered me a cigar and told me that next time I might direct the joke at native Americans because they are used to it by now.

Boy you're fucking stupid as fuck

Holy shit.

Iraq, Syria and most African countries are significantly more ethnically and religiously diverse than any Western country you fucking mongoloids.

>socialism is when government does things

You deserve it for being such a fucking nerd

this except it was usually Juan or Pablo

i wish i went to this school

This actually happened to me in English class 6th grade. I said it proudly. Not 'edgy' proudly, but 'fuck you, I'm saying what's on the page' proudly. Which I guess is edgy, but whatever.

I don't remember which book it was. All I can recall is it was some book that took place in Michigan and some character featured in it pronounced it as "MITCH-a-gin".

>TFW you were always called on by the teacher because you had a nice voice and didn't read like a fucking six year old
Feels good.

same

I had a class with an exgf and she said nigger. It wasn't from a quote in the reading, and it was on topic, but I think she easily could've avoided saying it she wanted. I wonder if she just wanted to say it and knew that one was one of the few appropriate public ways to say it

hes right
im no sjw but all the people who cry 'MUH ITS JUST WORDS' need to be quiet. there are far more logical arguments against those who silent free speech and free thought

Where do literal mouth breathers like thesse. come from

>teaching roll of thunder hear my cry to middle-schoolers

YOU GIVE SHLOMO WHATEVER THE FUCK HE WANTS

Really made me think

>>"Okay user read the next paragraph for us"
>>it contains the word "nigger"
What book is your class reading, user? If it's an Agatha Christie novel, or To Kill a Mockingbird or sth, nigger has already been said a few times and you'd feel comfortable with the 1930's Southern vernacular as it's not out of context.

My guess, and I apologize profusely if I'm wrong; my guess, user, is that this is just a thinly veiled outlet for you to vent, again, about how triggered you are by 'libtards' and 'safe spaces' and 'the evil feminist sjw's from tumblr' and everything else you fear and despise, because you would rather play the oppressed victim of crazy political correctness than discuss literature.

De Sade was satire, right? I cant be the only one to conclude, after reading about the "thick pad of shit" crusting some old man's anus that it was the 18th century literary equivalent of a shitpost on old /b/

>>It is a legitimate concern that exposing kids to racism might do more harm than good.
