    Allowing casual race-based insults is bad, even if they’re directed at white people. We know this is bad because no significant in-person org allows it. Allowing it here is the definition of extremely online behavior.

      People aren’t getting called cracker in real life, not because its such a terrible insult, but because that has just never been a thing that happens, because white people are not oppressed in any kind of racialized way. I think its an extremely silly thing to be concerned about.

        I don’t think people are getting called cracker in real life. I don’t think it’s a terrible insult, but it is an insult. Of course white people aren’t oppressed. None of my comments have said anything like any of this.

        I don’t think I can state what I’m talking about more clearly, and I don’t think you’ve been trying to understand what I’m saying, so I’m going to disengage.
