I live in a country which has none of the racial tensions present in the US. There may be some social tensions, but they're not along the black-white divide and there is no history of black slavery here. So why should I have external forces impose on my use of the English language, when those forces are concerned exclusively with what is happening in the US. Especially when what I am saying has 0 racial connotations. Meaning might be mostly relative, but you can't push all responsibility onto the speaker. As a speaker, I can't be held responsible for what you're hearing from your bubble and you're obviously doing 0 effort to meet me halfway.
