I think the right knows they're being silly when they act offended by "cracker", and so does everybody else. When I was a dumb highschool kid I recall having a conversation with one of my dumb kid friends about this, and laughing at the word "cracker" because how could it possibly be offensive to us white people? It signifies no shame or perceived lower status, unlike other slurs. Libs get this even if they pretend not to.

edit: just to add, I think all you need to do is point out that anybody pretending to be offended by cracker is really just mad they're not allowed to use actual offensive slurs, not at the word "cracker"

You're right. There's nothing to gain because "Cracker" is too light hearted to have the intended effect. I propose we pivot to "Cum skin" instead.

Going to bat for "cracker" is really a bad fight for the left to pick.

No.

Tailism and concern trolling about not offending whitey is weak liberal shit.

Are you even a leftist or do you just like le weed?

It's my people's word, I get to decide who can use it in my company and I give the pass to everyone (this is also the only real pass there is)

There's also nothing to gain by catering to people who get pissy about it, but making them angry is amusing

Counterpoint, I am extremely white looking, with Italian and English ancestry, and cracker being a slur "against" me is the funniest concept ever. If anyone called it me in an earnest attempt to insult or hurt me, I'd probably be hurt only by laughing. Especially being from Florida where there was a running gag of Florida Crackers (a historical term/job description), being a semi-common joke slur used.

There is as much to be gained going to bat for 'cracker' as there is in any argument over bigotry being symmetrically applicable to both the oppressor and the oppressed. In a framework of white supremacism, which has been imposed onto the world by western cultural hegemony, all peoples are to be racially denigrated in favor of the "white race." This can be done by white or non-white people, but it can only be done to non-white people. One can be prejudiced against white people and can call them names, and that is a direct result of this system of racism, but it isn't a part of it

This concept is important for understanding any dynamic of oppression. Anti-white racism isn't possible because it's predicted on 'white' being anything other than the identity construct created solely to "be supreme." Misandry isn't possible under patriarchy because its concept of manhood is the same type of construct. Classist bigotry can not be applied against the ruling class for the same reason, 'cissie' can not be a slur, and so on

Shut up cracker

Cracker doesn't just mean white, it comes from "whip-cracker" and is essentially a term for white supremacists.

there's nothing to gain

"There's nothing to gain by attacking Israeli settlers"

Ok kkkrackkker

I envy you

I have never watched a destiny or vaush clip outside of the "FBI open up" meme

also sugarcane is like a thick tree branch so ain't no way a 4-yr-old is harvesting anything with a sickle other than sprouts or leaves
