It's the Internet, don't take everything you see seriously.
I don't typically ever use it, unless I'm obviously being ironic. I have an aversion to it, like any person probably should.

I have an aversion to it, like any person probably should.I think its odd to have an aversion to a word.I use it all the time IRL, probably more often than I do online to be honest, just not as a racial slur.I call people who are acted like dumbasses niggers, and I also use it to describe misers, because of its ponetic similarity to the word niggard.It's a cultural norm for homochromatic people here to use the word with each other around here, so I don't really see it as racial when it comes out of my mouth.Even if it was as sensitive here as it is in other regions, I don't think I would refrain from using the word as an everyday insult until the first time I got the shit kicked out of me, but that's why I live here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
When I say I am "aversed" to the word, I don't mean that I shutter at the thought of it, or flinch when I hear/read it. I simply don't like it.
It's even more cringeworthy when you have these children (usually urban white people) who try to tell you that they're not saying "nigger", but "nigga", and that "nigga" is distinct from "nigger", simply because they're... using it in a different context. Which I think is just... juvenile, and retarded.
I also have an aversion to the word here and IRL, but (sheltered urban white kid here) my friends and I sometimes refer to each other as "nigga".
