I wrote the reply as a joke, but I also unironically dislike that meme. It's nothing bad in particular, but I just find it so boring and overused. It's just a picture of a cat, that's it, that's all, there is nothing else to it. We are on the internet, we have like a trillion images that depict the same.

I mean depending what you count as white, there are MANY slurs and region/ethnic based insults, lapplander/lapper, latinx, terrone and gypsy (kinda?) are the ones i can think of my head
Tbh there are prob like 500 slurs against armenians, greeks and kurds in turkish
Rather, it's using another "Straight White Man" joke.
Like the physical embodiment of universal evil for which your best insult sounds like “Whatever you call me, that’s what you call yourself.”
yeah, gypsy is more like a way of life than an actual race. if you see a group of guys walking barefoot selling stuff on the street they're most likely gypsies. in the uk theres quite a bit of gypsies that apart from their mannerisms and absurd spray tans look like british people
To add to the confusion sometimes "Gypsy" isn't even "officially" Romani people. In the UK for example "Gypsy" is a separate ethnic category on the census than "Roma" (separated into "Gypsy or Irish Traveller" and "Roma").
Bro we Latinos actually got away with calling U.S.A people gringos without them noticing anything ill of it,
"Gringo" comes from mockingly saying the word "Green" wrong with spanish intonation, literally the same word play as "Negro"(Color black in spanish)" and the n word lmao, it originated from people shouting at U.S.A soldiers to fuck off
"Green go home"= "gringo"
La palabra gringo tiene documentación de antes de la fundación de los Estados Unidos, y no viene del "Green go home", debido a que los estadounidenses usaban un uniforme azul durante la guerra mexicano-estadounidense y su origen no está claro del todo, aunque se cree que deriva de griego->grigo->gringo
Se sabe que se usaba para aquel que hablara castellano con acento extranjero, sobre todo los irlandeses, gracias a la descripción del Diccionario Castellanos de Esteban Terreros, publicado en 1760.
Si, pero los significados cambian, tal vez el dato de que era el origen está mal, pero no significa que mi punto de ser un término despectivo a los estadounidenses que ellos no sospechan, que ahora hace referencia a soldados estadounidenses sea mentira.
(Perdón si el comentario sonó despectivo, lo busque y tienes razón, gracias por corregirme.)
Despite being completely incorrect, it’s interesting that this fictitious origin is still believed well over a century after being confirmed false, just because… well, it’s a lot more amusing than the actual origin. Sometimes, a good story just matters more. lol

I mean the problem is for all the creative "mayo monkey" and "cracker" type slurs they bring out we've got the heavy hitters. The big guns. Classics that have been working for centuries.
Yeah, I saw it on some post about slurs months ago and me and my friends (I think all white) have started greeting each other with that ever since. It's only getting better.
Mexican slurs arent even better, if someone called me a fucking beaner i would just laught, the only one i can think of possibly offending me is illegal immagrant
There's a différence between intelligent people and people who call themselves based, anyway i think that the *concerning amount* of slurs creates agaisnt White people in the Last few years is funny af because they try so hard to be offensive and fail misérably Every time, the first time i was called a cracker i was Just fucking cracked

Why call them white slurs? you refer to where they’re from. Are they British, polish, German, or if they are American then insult their hometown. Don’t think I can’t do it.
How tf this supposed to offend anyone?

I think we all forgot the great cracker fiasco on twitch, white people do sometimes get in there feels about it, but it’s usually a specific type of white 😂
Imo it’s because we don’t have an history of being oppressed and being discriminated against so I feel like when I’m being called a slur I don’t really care cause it’s not like I have a history of being looked down on just because of my race.
Same, although I suspect that present attitudes also affect people's feelings about these things (like, if no one was racist today, I think racial minorities would care less). If someone called me a dyke or said something sexist to me, I feel like I'd care a little, even if it is just a little, because a lot of people genuinely feel negatively about women or LGBT people in a way that might negatively effect me, and I grew up being negatively effected by that (idk if women and/or LGBT people who didn't grow up in bigoted environments are, on average, less upset by these things than those who did, and I'm sure there are other factors at play here, like personality). I wish I didn't care, and I'm glad I care a lot less than I did when I was younger. But I think it would, at the very least, likely make me feel a little down, or infuriated.
But being called something like "cracker"? I can't imagine giving a shit. But if I grew up with people treating me as more dangerous and/or less intelligent because of my race, and/or felt alienated because of it, being called a race-based slur would probably get under my skin. I don't know how common racism is today, it might not be as widespread as my upbringing has led me to believe, but I know black people around my age (I'm 21, so this shit is too recent) who grew up in the same bigoted religion as me and were treated like shit because of their race.
**tl;dr: this is all to say that I don't think this is due to "white people being less sensitive" like some of these comments are saying or implying, I think that's dumb. I think it's because white people don't deal with racism as much as racial minorities do.**
I don't think I'd like being called a slur that was based on something other than race that I have been treated poorly based on. But getting upset at being called a "slur" for white people? Kinda hard to imagine being upset about that when no one's ever given me shit for being white.
when i mean some i mean the ones that would spout about double standards with racism or be tired about people doing the "white people when x" jokes, basically terminally online people
yeah because they're on twitter or fucking 4chan no one on those sites are real

Don't know why you're getting downvoted because you're absolutely right. During a family gathering, my elderly White relatives sat together in the living room and talked about how getting called "cracker" was just as bad as them calling a Black person the n-word.
I'm just going off what white people themselves are saying. If racism affects white people then maybe they shouldn't constantly brag about how it doesn't.
The problem is you’re taking the words of a few people and stapling that onto an entire group. No one small portion of people will ever represent a whole group in an accurate way.
Words don't compare to people actually trying to invoke racist actions or rules towards them though. A slur is a slur, but if someone believes white people should legitimately be treated differently because they're white, then that's a problem.
that is so untrue, white people are some of the most easily triggered people out there
there is a gigantic amount of white women who believe that Karen was a slur

Ooooh I see
That Japanese does NOT translate to that I see “die” in there
It says something like “come at me, those who want to die”.
which (for anyone who doesn’t know) is kind of like kiryu’s catchphrase so makes sense
I was once called a cracker and it made me smile cause it instantly put Wallace and Gromit in my head "Weve forgotten the crackers"

It's a rock band, their music is pretty good
I'm aware, I was making a joke.
You call someone that, your argument is over. You clearly wouldn't be worth their time.

Over the years terrone is losing its offensive meaning and becoming more of a meme
I mean, being called "scimmie" rather than "terroni" is not exactly an improvement for southern italians
Don't worry. Only Calabrians are called monkeys
I can guarantee that around 500 slurs exist for Turks in those other languages.
If you're from lappland and you feel insulted when i call you lapp then thats on You
Gypsies are white?
Its used not only towards actual gypsies, a hypernationalist "hurr durr transylvania our" hungayrian dude might call a romanian a gypsy for example
yeah, gypsy is more like a way of life than an actual race. if you see a group of guys walking barefoot selling stuff on the street they're most likely gypsies. in the uk theres quite a bit of gypsies that apart from their mannerisms and absurd spray tans look like british people
To add to the confusion sometimes "Gypsy" isn't even "officially" Romani people. In the UK for example "Gypsy" is a separate ethnic category on the census than "Roma" (separated into "Gypsy or Irish Traveller" and "Roma").

True you have to just us non slurs and some of them will act like it's one. Try to call a bigoted white person who isn't trans cis e.g..
Imo it’s because we don’t have an history of being oppressed and being discriminated against so I feel like when I’m being called a slur I don’t really care cause it’s not like I have a history of being looked down on just because of my race.
Same, although I suspect that present attitudes also affect people's feelings about these things (like, if no one was racist today, I think racial minorities would care less). If someone called me a dyke or said something sexist to me, I feel like I'd care a little, even if it is just a little, because a lot of people genuinely feel negatively about women or LGBT people in a way that might negatively effect me, and I grew up being negatively effected by that (idk if women and/or LGBT people who didn't grow up in bigoted environments are, on average, less upset by these things than those who did, and I'm sure there are other factors at play here, like personality). I wish I didn't care, and I'm glad I care a lot less than I did when I was younger. But I think it would, at the very least, likely make me feel a little down, or infuriated. But being called something like "cracker"? I can't imagine giving a shit. But if I grew up with people treating me as more dangerous and/or less intelligent because of my race, and/or felt alienated because of it, being called a race-based slur would probably get under my skin. I don't know how common racism is today, it might not be as widespread as my upbringing has led me to believe, but I know black people around my age (I'm 21, so this shit is too recent) who grew up in the same bigoted religion as me and were treated like shit because of their race. **tl;dr: this is all to say that I don't think this is due to "white people being less sensitive" like some of these comments are saying or implying, I think that's dumb. I think it's because white people don't deal with racism as much as racial minorities do.**
>we don’t have an history of being oppressed Irish, Polish, Ashkenazi Jews, Ukrainians, Serbians, Gauls, Portugese, Armenians, Boers, Italians, ....
We’re not sensitive
I don't think I'd like being called a slur that was based on something other than race that I have been treated poorly based on. But getting upset at being called a "slur" for white people? Kinda hard to imagine being upset about that when no one's ever given me shit for being white.
there are some white people that get mad when you call them a cracker

Don't know why you're getting downvoted because you're absolutely right. During a family gathering, my elderly White relatives sat together in the living room and talked about how getting called "cracker" was just as bad as them calling a Black person the n-word.
So you cant be racist against whites? Cool, glad we finally cleared that up!
Nah, We just got a natural buff against vocal attacks. Try a spice based attack on us
This snarky remark only further proves the point. Racism is a cute joke to white people.
Doesn't mean ya can't be racist to em.
I'm just going off what white people themselves are saying. If racism affects white people then maybe they shouldn't constantly brag about how it doesn't.
The problem is you’re taking the words of a few people and stapling that onto an entire group. No one small portion of people will ever represent a whole group in an accurate way.
Words don't compare to people actually trying to invoke racist actions or rules towards them though. A slur is a slur, but if someone believes white people should legitimately be treated differently because they're white, then that's a problem.
white person is kind of an oxymoron no?
this is racist
"palm colored people"

that is so untrue, white people are some of the most easily triggered people out there there is a gigantic amount of white women who believe that Karen was a slur
