Re-defining racism to mean structural racism and structural racism only is commandism, not tailism:
If you "make investigations," you'll find that most people define racism as something like "prejudice or hate based on skin color." They would say, for instance, that a black American manager who gives their white employees all the shit assignments is racist in a similar way to a white manager who gives black employees shit assignments, even though the U.S. is overwhelmingly racist against black people.

Does the word cracker personally offend you?
No, and you'll notice that's not at all what I'm talking about.
You think its bad yet you aren't offended by it? How does that make sense? If its bad then you really should find it offensive.
Hes saying that most people arent going to be super hip on whiteness, white skin and all the difference between terminology and if you call someone whos not already inoculated in that kind of thinking theyre going to just assume youre a weird blue haired college kid racist.
It's a losing battle and especially rings a weird way when its very white people engaging in this kind of rhetoric
Like who are you calling a cracker your parent sent you to a montessori school and you didnt pay for college
You are right about one thing, very white people are indeed engaging in this argument. It would not be an argument otherwise.
You should take your own advise and stop engaging in this argument. Especially after posting this.

It never bothers me when someone goes for the cracker/mayo stuff but I literally don't know anyone who's brain is not terminally online that says stuff like this.
are you from the north?
No removed ever called me Cracker! - redditor on why they are dodging the 2028 Sino-American war draft
It always meant structural racism. Just because colloquially people confused it with "some of my best friends are X" liberal colorblindness and "I'm totally not personally prejudiced/bigoted therefore it doesn't matter that I benefit from structural racism" was a matter of reactionary miseducation.
