Actress Sarah Silverman says she regrets her usage of the "N-word" in her comedy, saying she thought being "liberal" was enough to make people think she is not racist, and therefore could use the pejorative on stage.

“I felt like the temperature of the world around me at the time was ‘We are all liberal so we can say the N-word’ — ‘We aren’t racist, so we can say this derogatory stuff,'” Silverman
told Rolling Stone, reflecting on her 2005 special,
Jesus Is Magic.
“I’ll tell you why we make fun of midgets: we’re not afraid of them,” the
School of Rock star said during the 2005 special, adding, “That’s what it boils down to, you know? I mean, I had a joke with the N word in it that I thought was so edgy and hip.”
“I was at this one club doing my show, and I looked in the front row and the whole table is black people or African American people, and I didn’t do it because I was afraid of them,” Silverman added in her comedy performance. Then, following a brief pause, Silverman said, “And I ended up changing that joke to chinks, so, you live and you learn.”
She is a dipsh!t.
