blackmail Sixteenth-century Scottish farmers paid their rent, or mail, to English absentee landlords in the form of white mail, silver money, or black mail, rent in the form of livestock or produce. The term black mail took on a bad connotation only when greedy landlords forced cashless tenants to pay much more in goods than they would have paid in silver. Later, when freebooters along the border demanded payment for free passage and "protection," the poor farmers called this illegal extortion blackmail, too.

The word "racist" doesn't even mean anything anymore because it's used out of context so much. Liberals redefine words to go with their agenda and try to call out people. Pussies, I hate em.

Blackmail only sounds racist when said by a white male.

Yeah I was watching a bunch of blacks play dominos and I thought it was a racist thing and they were joking together.
