No because it's a goofy arse word and usually the person is saying it with such vitriol and hostility that you can't help but laugh.

The most offensive word you can call a white person is racist.

How did it get deleted? Did he report it? That could make a difference.

Other possibility is it was automated. Honky can have an innocuous context (honky tonk). Some words don't.

My theory is that pre-internet, the white geek suffered more than did those who were not white.

They now condone everything.

It was reported and as an experiment I reported his to see what would happen and just as I expected nothing. Nothing offends me and I was wondering if honky or whatever term actually offended anyone of the Caucasian persuasion. I just wanted to know why it gets overlooked when other races trash white people but the world burns the other way around. I'm proud of who I am and I refuse to apologize for being born white.

There's two things you don't do to the Honkytonk Man.

1. Don't knock him down
2. Don't interrupt his music
3.???
4. Profit

Anyone who is truly offended by or pretends to be offended by a word or words should be fed to a pack of dogs.

You can't be on top of the social food chain if you let words bother you. That's what 5 year olds do. Act like a 5 year old, you get treated like one.
