I know that word because I’ve heard it said many a time. I grew up in the racist south and apparently the word is well over a hundred years old, so when Snoop used it against other people, he was trying to say like a worse word than the n word to describe those people.

I made a huge mistake. I was completely ignorant of that fact. I’m a dumbass.
They were right to call me out on it.
I apologize to everyone.
