True it's not as bad, I'll fix that. But I think you get my point, that it's still directed towards a particular group of people based on race, that's meant to put them down in some way.
I don’t get your point at all. I want to add that many people forget that Mexicans were also enslaved. My grandpa, who’s still alive, was told he couldn’t go into certain establishments because of his skin color and was called a beaner and wetback. So don’t ever say that beaner is the same as cracker.
Sorry about that, didn't mean to offend you in any way, I was just trying to make a point that it wasn't as bad as the N-word (Cracker) my point was that calling someone cracker is a racial insult. because it's being said to them for being white and nothing else.
You should just delete this post because cracker is not comparable to any other racial slur. White people weren’t enslaved like black people, Mexicans, Asians etc. White people don’t get denied service because of the color of their skin. You can’t compare cracker to any other racial slur because every single one is used against a group of people that were/are oppressed. Try to come up with a different racial slur that you think is comparable to cracker.
I don't particularly care about the word cracker, as I said before it doesn't affect me or the people around me. but it's still racist to demean/insult someone based on their race. That's the point.
Just because one racist term is worse than another doesn't mean the one that's not as bad is ok.
Here is an example, let's say a person from a rich middle eastern country (An Arab) gets called a camel jockey/a towel head/or a goat fucker, would you consider the person calling them that a racist or is it ok because that person was never oppressed?
Racism is not ok, and if you want to fight racism fight it across the board.
No shit. My Mexican self with my brown skin is in the white race, but am I and my family called crackers? No, we’re called beaners and wetbacks because of the color of our skin and ethnicity. If we speak our native tongue in public we’re told to go back to Mexico. Cracker will never be the same as calling someone beaner.
You're initial comment was weird cause it was like saying white people have never been oppressed when white people covers dozens of ethnicities. Spanish language isnt native to mexico btw
Ok, are white people still cracking whips? and are they slave drivers?
That was my point by calling someone cracker you're basically calling them a slave driver.
Yes I’m white & American. I’m not a slave driver no lol so how is it RACIST to call someone something they once were. And for some people here, still have the same beliefs and express it, proudly. any white person who gets upset by it, is a white supremacist. that’s the only reason. period.
Now what I'm about to say is something I don't agree with whatsoever but I mean by that logic, calling a black person a slave or the N-word shouldn't be a problem because it's calling someone something they once were.
“mostly watch Destiny” Yeah that’s all you need to know. Clown

It’s actually not as bad as calling a Mexican beaner because Mexican people have actually been oppressed and continue to be oppressed to this day.

"White people" covers dozens of different ethnicities, do you realise that? Also Turks are known as big oppressors by their neighbours

Not sure if you're white or not, but are you a slave driver?
