Just because some people hijacked the word 'spade' doesnt change that.
Trying to change it into a racist phrase is just more b/s, much like the same b/s that tried to say a blackboard was racist, or baa baa black sheep.

I do not disagree with the appropriation aspect but as I said I have always seen it as a racist phrase because throughout my life the word was used as a derogatory term for a black person.
