I guess I can't read Huck Finn and To Kill a Mockingbird out loud.

This reads like he used it as an example of offensive words, so tthey fired him.

The second of his 3 strikes was saying it to HR when they asked him about it.
The third was not apologizing for it months later to a meeting of black employees.

So the color of someone's skin places limitations on what words they can and cannot say?
Does this apply to black people as well?
frick it, I'm done. Netflix will lose me as a subscriber tonight.

"****" is the word the article, nor the author of this post, feel they can actually post. So instead they refer to it as the "N-word" as if that somehow makes it better.

i find it ironic in the length of my lifetime how saying the n-word which is offensive but not a curse word is the only taboo word now that can`t be typed or mentioned and blaspheming God is readily accepted at Netflix and every other business.

But BHP is the one who proposed calling them NotSees.
Unless there’s some other N-word I’m not thinking of.

Niggga, Niggga, Niggga, Niggga, Niggga, Niggga, please
I'm treated like a fricking disease.
You say why can I call myself a niggga so quick?
Cause I can reach in my draws and pull out a bigger dick...Yo!

The left and the ACLU worshiped free speech back when it mostly meant sticking it mommy and daddy's religion.
