A term used in suburban communities as a safealternative for the n-word. Despite everyone being aware of this, suburbanites will claim they intended no such thing.
Person 1: I’m sick of these thugs moving into our communities!
Person 2: Whoa! Why you gotta be racist?
Person 1: I’m not. Idk what you’re talking about.
Person 2: Well that new family that just moved in are a family of doctors and attorneys so idk why they would be “thugs” in your mind...unless you’re racist.
