That’s been the media narrative for years & years, they always tie in some cop dragging OJ Simpson off & calling him a n-gger. Then it was like a switch was flipped & everyone was like, you know what…we’re done even reporting this… let’s call it the n-word.
Here, I promise, I am randomly pulling an example. 8:01 AM my time. By 8:02, I found this 2nd result, How OJ Simpson created the n-word. No, I am not researching this further, in the same way that I’m not popping my head outside to confirm the sky is blue. I pass the torch…to you. I found it in 1 minute by searching “OJ Simpson n-word”. Over 20 years, I have casually seen this connection cited dozens of times.
Also in my own defense, I was posting this at 3 AM & clearly no one’s on my wavelength. So I went to bed. It’s now 8 AM & I’m going to work. OJ Simpson n-word. Have fun. 👍👍👍👍
I’ve never seen mainstream media pushing that narrative. It should be a huge red flag to you if the only source you can find that supports your belief is on social media (yes, YouTube is social media).
“It should be a huge red flag” that you can’t be bothered to web search OJ Simpson N-word, search specifically for news articles, and look at the dozens of results that pop up. Huge red flag. Multiple red flags. Perhaps even banner sized red flags.
Nowhere in any of those articles does it state that the word was ever part of “most people’s common vernacular,” as you claimed. When most people found out what those detectives said they were disgusted. Awareness, and the public discourse about racism definitely changed after the OJ trials, but most people weren’t casually using the N word in the 80s.
