Fuck shit cunt nigger wop hebe kike queer faggot dyke cuntstain retard asswipe fuckwit kaffir.
Words can hit like a piledriver.
I’m sort of like a duck. The water rolls off my back. I am a Kike. Yup. A Red Sea Pedestrian. A fucking Jew.
And you know what? I am the most areligious person in the entire world. And I’m a walking emotional scar – names and sticks and stones. Those names and labels speak more about your insecurities than they do about me or my ethnic origins. If you want to label people – go ahead. But be aware. Some people do take offence. Violently.
Here’s a word that I take violent offense to when it is used. Kaffir. A word that hurts me. It makes me flinch. Because it brings back memories of yellow Stars on shirts

Here’s a word that I take violent offense to when it is used. Kaffir. A word that hurts me. It makes me flinch. Because it brings back memories of yellow stars on shirts and tattoos on the inside of arms.
I will never, ever use that word. It makes me want to throw up in my mouth.
For those of you who did not grow up in Apartheid South Africa or did not work against that terrible system it is very difficult to understand what that word means.
It is filled with hatred and scorn and an attitude that simply puts people into the category of sub human.
But there is another word that is even worse.
And we use it all the time. It is a word that I am trying desperately trying to stop my kids using – and for those around me to eliminate from their vocabulary.
Hate.
Such a simple word.
But it is heavier than lead. It is more toxic than plutonium.
‘I hate this weather’. No; you don’t. It’s unpleasant, you are uncomfortable. Put on a jersey. Or take it off.
‘I hate this sand – it’s too hot!’ No, you are an entitled idiot on a beach. Pull your clothing out your crack and enjoy.
‘I hate this traffic!’ Get out and walk.
If you hate something you had better be ready to put your heart and soul into it.
There are very few absolutes in life.
Hatred is one of those.
Be careful of that word.
If you use it – be aware that you carry a burden. A weight that you have to bear. Be willing to strap it on to your back. Because that is what it will be; a weight. And one that no human being should carry.
Wait, I left ‘bastard’ and ‘whore’ out of that first sentence.
Words are weapons of mass destruction. They can hit harder than a brick to the head – and they can become viral and destroy a civilisation. Be careful how you use words.
You motherfuckers sleep tight. Stop hating things.
Don’t be like Steve. Be nice and stop being angry. Love you all.
