(Not Intended To Be Offensive) Acronym to be used after text communicating or verbalizing a statement that may be perceived as offensive, judgmental, prejudice or even as dubitable bigotry but is truly intended to to demonstrate the comment or statement is intended to be non-inflammatory in nature and expression to the receiving party. The use of NITBO as an acronym or word is an indicator the person isn’t intent on being offensive (genuinely) and that one doesn’t have to qualify but they may also be lacking in education, in cultural awareness, in tact, the most basic common sense or might very well be totally ignorant or just a plain idiot. Used to demonstrate non-Karen, non-Ken type perspective when making what could be interpreted as an offensive or prejudice statement or text leaves no question, that if any sensitivity arises or if misinterpreted determination leads to offense, that it was not the intent of the communicator.
