Read more carefully. "No American doesn't bring baggage" means every American brings baggage with such loaded words. Not sure how you missed that.

The original form of the word is so heavy that you yourself can't even type it out; you felt compelled to censor the vowels out. That right there tells you about the power of the word. And you think a guy trying to make a strong critique can just drop it into a conversation without its gravity giving spin to its meaning?
