I think you must not know many eighty or sixty year olds maybe?
If 'colored' is so offensive, how come the No. 1 advocacy group for black people is the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People?
I think you didn't actually read my post.
I said, if I hear an eighty year old say the term, it might be malevolent,
OR BENEVOLENT.
Did you catch that last part this time????
I am sixty-three years old, so don't make me laugh by telling me I don't know many eighty and sixty year olds.
By the way, you might have also missed this factoid:
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP)[a] is a civil rights organization in the United States,
formed in 1909 as a bi-racial endeavor to advance justice for African Americans by a group including W. E. B. Du Bois, Mary White Ovington and Moorfield Storey.
Mary White Ovington and Moorfield Storey were white. W.E.B. duBois was black.
Did you catch that???
1909.
Nineteen Hundred Nine, Nineteen Aught Nine.
And although you don't bother to read my posts, and although you're so absorbed and obsessed with your agenda, and although you see anything and everything I write as

In my humble opinion, my sneering little friend, if one uses the term "colored people" today, it's about the same as using the term "negro". If you're my age, it makes you look like a doddering dotard or a fool, or it makes you look like someone who is carrying an agenda.
I'm Italian, and while I probably wouldn't take too much offense at being called a goomba, if you referred to me as a "papist garlic eater" or a dago, there'd be little doubt as to your agenda.
"Dago" would just make me laugh, and then I'd get in your grille and ask what part of New York or Italy you're from.
"Papist Garlic Eater" would identify you as a redneck Baptist from the Deep South or a frail WASP from New England.
Stop with the playing dumb and amateur gaslighting attempts, you're not good at them.
