British-born ex-Leftist, Christopher Hitchens, was on American TV discussing how derogatory words lose their force after a while:
"I also mention a famous rude word for black people that begins with 'N' but has been annexed back by its victims. Suddenly, there is a break and the studio fills with grim-faced executives who tell me that I'm cut from the rest of the show. I say I want it in writing. From discussing a non-story to becoming a non-story of my own is a short step.

The TV executives were just protecting themselves from Leftist attacks, of course.
