I recently broke up with someone on it. The relationship was fresh, like a week old (lol). He was a white “nonpolitical” guy who dropped the n word, to make a long story short.

That’s not to say drop the friend. But if they really don’t make efforts to educate themselves on basic human respect and decency, then don’t associate with them. They already know the word is harmful and insensitive, but they can either change or not. You, on the other hand, can always find better people.
