I can turn to a black person and say 'get back on the farm you stupid nigga' and it would hardly be any different from saying ******. Nigga can still be used just as hatefully as ****** can.

^In that context, yes. But this is about language on the boards, where the spelling is more visible. When you're speaking I don't think anybody sees much contextual difference between 'nigga' and '******'.
Also, if one black guy says to another black guy "hey, ma nigga", is he insulting him? I'm pretty sure some black people who use this phraseology might take exception to being told that they're actually being racist to each other. Opinions?
