Whoa, THAT'S not good! This Nikole Hannah-Jones' tweet from 2013 is pretty damn problematic, yes? (screenshot)

Nikole Hannah-Jones did some housecleaning on our timeline today and looking at this screenshot we can kinda sorta see why she would have wanted to do that.

Then again, tweets are FOREVER:

Uh oh! Didn't Nikole Hannah-Jones say that if you weren't part of a group, you couldn't use offensive words pertaining to them?

People who simply repeat what others say when using a slur should be canceled for this, yes?

That’s the new rules, right?
