They're Only Words - George Carlin

There's a different group to get pissed off at you in this country for everything your not supposed

to say.

Can't say Nigger, Boogie, Jig, Jigaboo, Skinhead, Moolimoolinyon, Schvatzit, Junglebunny.

Greaser, Greaseball, Dago, Guinea, Whop, Ginzo, Kike, Zebe, Heed, Yid, Mocky, Himie, Mick,

Donkey, Turkey, Limey, Frog.

Zip, Zipperhead, Squarehead, Crout, Hiney, Jerry, Hun, Slope, Slopehead, Chink, Gook.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with any of those words in and of

themselves.

Their only words.

It's the context that counts.

It's the user.

It's the intention behind

the words that makes them good or bad.

The words are completely neutral.

The words are

innocent.

I get tired of people talking about bad words and bad language.

Bullshit!

It's the

context that makes them good or bad.

The context.

That makes them good or bad.

For instance,

you take the word "Nigger."

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the word "Nigger" in and of

itself.

It's the racist asshole who's using it that you ought to be concerned about.

We don't mind

when Richard Pryer or Eddie Murphy say it.

Why?

Because we know they're not racist.

Their

Niggers!

Context.

Context.

We don't mind their context because we know they're black.

Hey, I

know I'm whitey, the blue-eyed devil, paddy-o, fay gray boy, honkey, mother-fucker myself.

Don't

bother my ass.

Their only words.

You can't be afraid of words that speak the truth, even if it's an

unpleasant truth, like the fact that there's a bigot and a racist in every living room on every

street corner in this country.

Hay un grupo diferente para enojarse contigo en este país por todo lo que no se supone

decir.

No puedo decir Nigger, Boogie, Jig, Jigaboo, Skinhead, Moolimoolinyon, Schvatzit, Junglebunny.

Greaser, Greaseball, Dago, Guinea, Whop, Ginzo, Kike, Zebe, Heed, Yid, Mocky, Himie, Mick,

Burro, Pavo, Limey, Rana.

Zip, Zipperhead, Squarehead, Crout, Hiney, Jerry, Hun, Slope, Slopehead, Chink, Gook.

No hay absolutamente nada de malo en ninguna de esas palabras en y de

ellos mismos.

Sus únicas palabras.

Es el contexto lo que cuenta.

es el usuario

Es la intención detrás

las palabras que las hace buenas o malas.

Las palabras son completamente neutrales.

las palabras son

inocente.

Me canso de que la gente hable de malas palabras y malas palabras.

¡Mierda!

Es el

contexto que los hace buenos o malos.

El contexto.

Eso los hace buenos o malos.

Por ejemplo,

tomas la palabra "Nigger".

No hay absolutamente nada malo con la palabra "Nigger" en y de

sí mismo.

Es el gilipollas racista que lo está usando el que debería preocuparte.

no nos importa

cuando lo dicen Richard Pryer o Eddie Murphy.

¿Por qué?

Porque sabemos que no son racistas.

Su

¡Niggers!

Contexto.

Contexto.

No nos importa su contexto porque sabemos que son negros.

Oye yo

sé que soy blanquito, el demonio de ojos azules, paddy-o, fay grey boy, honkey, hijo de puta.

No

molestar a mi culo.

Sus únicas palabras.

No puedes tener miedo de las palabras que dicen la verdad, incluso si es una

verdad desagradable, como el hecho de que hay un fanático y un racista en cada sala de estar en cada

esquina de la calle en este país.
