The term is still acceptable, just not on US social media. You also must say “unalive”, it’s all idiocy.
I think you can still say “idiocy”
I feel like in historical context it’s unnecessary to censor the word Negroes, even though it’s no longer acceptable. I actually looked up the article you quoted to make sure Vlady wasn’t dropping hard R’s, since you kind of never know.
However that could be the type of buried white privilege similar to thinking it’d be fun to travel back in time to see history in person is, and am open to correction. Just seems like the term wasn’t being used with hate like the N word absolutely always was and is.

Honestly I’m just used to censoring it for the reddit/facebook/etc algorithmic censors. I generally dislike censoring quotes.

I strongly agree with censoring quotes, largely in general. Unless the person has used such terrible vulgarity that the repetition of it in quoting is useless and can just be replaced by [slur], don’t wash somebody else’s disgusting language for them let their words belong to them.
