You are fine as long as you don't use the actual word. All that does is make our community look racist making other uncomfortable joining. We are trying to grow not push people away.
It doesn't make our community look racist because there is nothing racist about that word itself. NOTHING. Racism, in speech, requires intent. It requires racist context surrounding the word.
I can be extremely racist without using that word. I can use that word and be completely not racist (as shown above). The idea, the audacity, the hubris that a dictatorial moderator gets to decide which words we can and cannot say is exactly what is wrong with this world. If we allow it to take root here we will die. I promise.
There is one and only one solution. No one will be banned for using any word.
I don't care if they ban for being ACTUALLY racist. I have no problem with that, but banning for simply using a word in some otherwise innocent context is utterly disgusting. It is the very first evil started by every totalitarian government in all of history. Its straight out of the communist playbook.

What do you think would be a solution? Because as of now anyone to use the word is insta perma ban
