The Daily Wire's Matt Walsh defends using the n-word: “The idea that there's a word that cannot be uttered under any circumstance is completely insane”
MATT WALSH (HOST): In no context, of course do we know you can -- is it okay to utter that word, depending on your skin pigmentation. Because we know that this word, it's a magical incantation. It's like a curse that, you know, you find in a -- in an old dusty book in the attic. And you dust off the book and you open it and you recite, you say the words in the book and it has some kind of, like -- just saying the words has some sort of magical effect. That's what this particular word is, we're told. That's how it's presented, where you can not even utter the syllables in any context, even while quoting someone. You can't say the act -- you could say n-word. Which still conveys that -- it still communicates the word. When you say n-word, well, everyone immediately knows what you mean. So what is the moral distinction between saying n-word or actually uttering the simple syllables themselves while quoting someone? What's the distinction? There isn't one. It's totally arbitrary. But this is the arbitrary, completely ridiculous rule that has been imposed.
