a white: it goes both ways!
a white: when you call me "cracker" it's just as bad as if I said the N Word!
me: oh my apologies, I forgot your preferred identity is Saltine American
me: and I keep forgetting that the word "cracker" recalls & reinforces a time when white people as a group were treated as sub-human by people of color as a group
me: I always forget what assholes us Blacks & Browns have been, creating laws & entire branches of science to 'justify' & enforce our mistreatment of whites
me: and how this mistreatment has reached an international, global scale that continues to affect whites negatively to this day
a white: ....
me: what? none of that ever happened? so when I call you "cracker" it hurts your feelings but doesn't perpetuate a system of oppresion? so they're *not* the same thing? well then!
me: also I don't care that your feelings are hurt, so.
