Saying that Patch forced you to become a racist is stupid. You made that decision, not him. You have free will.

Very few people follow or accept Noam Chomsky's ideas as any kind of truth. Thus, his commentary on the useage of that word is irrelevant. We, the rest of the furry community are your judge and jury, not him.
I think you feel that using the word somehow makes you brave, yet at the same time you have freely admitted that you would be frightened to use it in public, because your reputation and relationships would be destroyed.
