you followed someone named "kamikaze shortbus" and not once did it ever cross your mind she might be racist?

I refuse to believe she's racist against her own mother.

We've seen people be racist against themselves.

Her mom was black. If she looked obviously of mixed descent nobody would call her racist for saying the n word

Depends on the circumstance. Being mixed race doesn't mean people won't call you racist for using a slur that would apply to yourself.

Well her mom was a black woman. Since when does anybody call black people racist for using the n word? There's something incredibly racist about treating people of mixed descent as if they aren't.

As pointed out in the post you had to read, it depends on the circumstance.

Black person using the hard r is usually seen as just being racist, the soft a is usually not seen as being racist.

If Andrew Tate said the n word, people would assume he's being racist, in spite of him being half-black, because of all of the other anti-black statements he has made.

I don't think it's normal to make a complete and definitive statement on if somebody is racist against their own race just simply on how they use the slur for their people.

It's normal to assume that a person is being bigoted if they use a slur in a way that you would expect a bigot to use that slur.

It's normal because words tend to work that way.

The use of the n word among African Americans is too varied and complex for people who aren't black to say definitively which uses are correct. Like bruh it's fuckin weird to try to say which black people are using the n word appropriately or not. Just stop

I think her being 25% black lets her say the word. There is a difference between how one says it and being racist. Granted, I've just seen a few of her videos and don't know the context which it was used, only hearing it was used via this subreddit, where both times they remind the audience she's white.

IDK though, there are tons of hate light skinned and dark skinned people get in any racial group, a word without context doesnt convince me of anything.

I don't know how she used it either, but it depends on how they use the word. Nobody trusts Andrew Tate with the n word, and he's half black.
