dead kennedys?

I don't mind it in all honesty as it's supposed to be protresting against the stuff that was happening in Cambodia at the time alongside not condoning the violence, murder, and the killings going on either or the Khmer Rouge. If anything it's moreso to add emphasis on the wrongdoings of the U.S during this as well as the people held accountable as well as showing how the government back then did not see people as humans unless they were privileged or powerful.

im non-black so take this w a grain of salt but i truly think that the n word has no place in a non-black person's mouth whatsoever, idc if you're quoting a black person or something its still absolutely unnecessary. i think you can still listen to their music and understand that what they said was wrong, but personally i wouldnt feel comfortable listening to the specific song w the n word in it.

I agree with kaya. I just don't listen to that song. What they did was wrong and to my knowledge it's the only song where they do it. The messaging of the song isn't racist at least. (Death glare at Minor Threat)

it's used with anti-racist intent but i still don't like its use in the song, so take it as you will. Los Angeles by X uses the word in the same way. the 80s were a very different time i suppose!

im black. i couldnt care less if someone says nigga not matter what race. i feel like people can put certain intent behind words. as long as you don't call me a watermelon munching porch monkey nigger, I really dont give a fuck

i understand that jello used it to mock the naturality which the racists have to say the n word but i think it's wrong anyway:/ specially since their late drummer(D.H peligro) was black and all

I'm not a person of color, I definitely do not find it comfortable, which I think is a good thing. I believe the most important part of listening to music, as a white person, retro-actively like this, is not being excited or happy or validated at the prospect of this artist saying the N word.  

isn't dead Kennedy's a poser band? I heard they became boot lickers and don't actually follow punk culture anymore. I don't listen to them anymore but I'm pretty sure that's what happened with them- 

ok so as a poc i dont personally have a problem with it i know when i first heard it caught me off guard but then again i also wasnt really even paying attention to the lyrics and the message being relayed. people use the n word all the time but at least it wasnt in ill intent but from the time the song came out to now i can see how someone would make it a big deal. in my opinion though its not that big of a deal and i still like the song
