Words hold power for people. They have too because this is the closest humans can get to having transferable power.

Those brutes of strength such as Genghis Khan could hopefully pass on their genetics to offspring in hope the strength could continue or they could use language to make all those after their demise, powerful.

“Yo. Nigger. Go back to Africa,” said by a twig of a man embracing the power of language.

Words of racism are easy to understand while other everyday words are less identifiable yet powerful. “Loggers rape the forest,” said by some nature group or another.

Greta Thunberg is great at the power of isolating and disparaging others.

Are you racist?

Are you powerful?

Are you human?

I tried racism today. Thought it might be an interesting experiment. Used an old friend to test it out. A seasoned retired New York cop who knows full well the language of, “Nigger. Pig. Cracker. Wop.”

The experiment was a success and only enforced the logic behind the perceived power of words.

In the experiment the mechanism of hate was obvious. All.

All.

All words have perceived power. The power to hurt or heal.

Therefore my conclusion is no matter what word is used. Nigger. Love. Fuck. Shit. Cunt. Twat. Dick. Prick. Food. Sunset. Rain… Any word can be used in a ‘good’ way or ‘bad’, thus it is only one word that decides the power of any written or spoken word, that being the word,

intent.
