When people misuse a word so often, it renders it meaningless

It is as tiresome as making an inappropriate holocaust analogy.
And when they use it correctly? You can backpedal all you want. You said that a black man marrying a white woman, who was whiter than white whooo boy, is a slap in the face. That is saying it is wrong, there is no other way to interpret that. And it is a racist statement against both white people and black people. Have no clue whether you are racist or not, but you sure did say a racist thing.

Did you think we would all agree with you and pat you on your back as you insulted the numerous people on this board who are in biracial relationships?

Stop for a moment and reverse what you said. If a white man married a black woman, and in response someone said, whooo boy, that woman is blacker than black, she's from Nigeria, it doesn't get any blacker than that, what a slap in the face to white people and white women in particular, what would you think about that statement?
