I mean, even "cracker" isn't particularly offensive. Although if you hear it in person, probably best to assess the probability of you getting shanked in the very near future.
"Nigger" isn't even objectively offensive. It just comes from the Latin word for 'black'. It's interesting that 'nigger' is offensive, but negro less so even though they both come from Spanish - and 'black' is now the preferred term even though it's literally the same thing.
People are taught to get angry over that word. There is no reason for it, as I once explained on a KiA post. They always have the excuse of "that word has been used to oppression people" and such as, but that makes little sense. Any other word could have been used to oppression the blacks, that doesn't make the words themselves bad.
I think it's smart for them to try to 'take it back', because having your well-being destroyed by someone saying a word is not an optimal state of being. But "we can say it and whites can't" is not taking it back, because it doesn't rob the word of its power. It actually adds to it, as though it has some sort of talismanic force.
They've been raised to believe everything is racism so it's impossible for them to tell what real racism is anymore.
They've been told that using racial slurs themselves is fine but if white people do it, it's racist. It's ridiculous and contradictory, but that's what happens when words don't mean anything anymore and you just go by what everyone else tells you to believe.
Yep. Only you can decide how you react. But it does look stupid to call each other that while also hyperventilating if a white person says it. Just my opinion
Being offended is something that is in your power to control. I'm not saying it's easy, and it's never a good feeling to have hate and vitriol spewed at you, but at the end of the day it's within your power to decide whether to let it offend you or not.
This used to be taught by parents, "sticks and stones" and all that. It's a shame this seems not to be the case any more.
Of all the real slurs, Gringo seems to have the most bite to me, at least phonetically speaking. Any others with teeth refer to specific races and not white skinned in general.
Black people love white people. When they call you a cracka, it's a term of endearment.
Latinos who say "gringo" genuinely dislike Americans. At least with the South Americans, I genuinely think that they think that they're better than us.
Is that one a slur though? It seems to be used more matter-of-factly than as an insult, and also encapsulates whites, blacks, hispanics, even other asians.
Gaijin is more or less "foreigner". A word that definitely can have hostile meanings, but also perfectly factual ones, but rarely complimentary ones. Evil or Neutral, not Good.
Yeah in the past there was a common understanding of "fighting words" and that you were just if you retaliated against somebody instigating you like that. Of course in the modern day the Justice system will not side with you unless you are a "diverse minority"
The reasons the insults are bad are because 2 reasons, 1. When making an insult you have to personalize it, you can’t do this with “white” people because “white” doesn’t exist. This is why Fredo and Ginny work so viciously with Italians. Or simply saying Ooga Booga to Africans because it mocks their tribal association. 2. There’s no catchiness to the phrases, they’re just throwing shit on a wall to see what sticks. Insults are particularly effective in 2 capacities, short and sweet or long and mocking.
Or simply saying Ooga Booga to Africans because it mocks their tribal association.
Tribes are perfectly respectable (in fact, tribal people have more freedom and autonomy than people in states can possibly imagine), that should not be offensive.
Doesn't like a quarter of this board rail against quote-unquote a certain tribe being too technologically, socially, and financially successful? See, tribes can be perfectly adept.
To me, knowing what men & women are, shouldn't be worth respecting. But I completely understand, that in these crazy times, why somone would respect something bare mimimum like that. I don't mean this disrespectfully, I really do understand why you said that.
Yeah, I actually agree with you here. Being at the level of a caveman from 30,000 years ago is the bare minimum.
But when they are and a lot of people, particularly elites, in our society aren't?
Anyway, what I actually meant is that they live the way we evolved to live. Despite having less than the poorest people in Western countries, they were happy (I realize I almost sound like the WEF). In small groups where everyone knows each other, not in highly artificial societies that seem to wreak havoc with the human mind.
what I actually meant is that they live the way we evolved to live. Despite having less than the poorest people in Western countries, they were happy (I realize I almost sound like the WEF).
I know what you mean. There is value in simple living. WEF & Progressives in general can have some fun house mirror version of Conservative values, so they have a fun house mirror version of simple living.
Paying rent to live in a small pod VS owning a small cottage/cabin to live in.
Not owning many possessions beacuse you're renting nearly everything VS not owning many possessions because you don't need alot of posessions to feel happy.
Literally eating bugs as part of an everyday diet VS eating very no-frills & cheap meals as part of an everyday diet. Beans, meat & rice type of meals. Soup type of meals. (of course I know poverty & food scarity can be an issue where African tribes would actually HAVE to eat bugs, but no one should strive for that.)
If Black exists then White exists. Refusing to play the dialectic doesn't make it go away. Destroying only one empowers the other. (unless you think calling black people Black is hurting and isolating them, which arguably is true in a way)
That used to be the case but like the rest of their religion the woketards exported Blackness to the rest of the world. (leading to regional variations like BIPOC and BAME, which amusingly nobody can agree on)
Praise be to St. Floyd the Martyr for showing all humanity the way. It's a shame those stupid Africans don't know what it means to be Black.
'White' is an American construct used chiefly to distinguish European from non-European.
In a European context it's an almost useless term because it means putting Celts, Anglos, Germanics, Danes, Nords, Finns, Meds, Slavs, Spaniards, Italians, Romanians, and even the half the Turks, hell the fucking IRANIANS look 'white' if you want to make it purely about skin colour - something no European would do, and until recently, no American, either - but Americans keep widening the definition of white, because, after all, 'white' is just a colour.
And that's why there's no good insult for 'white'. It's simply not specific enough.
The left know what they mean when they say 'white', though. They mean Anglo-Saxon.
You do realize “white” was coined to destroy all those unique successful cultures yes? Also you’d be hard pressed to call modern Greece successful, let alone many other “white” nations. You can cry kike all day long but by your logic they are just as white as you princess.
Garlic goblins is a weird one, since China, India, and pretty much all the South and East Asian countries consume the vast majority of global garlic production. I guess Asians are honorary Whiteys again today,
Garlic goblins sound like it would be French-specific. I'm partial to vanilla gorillas- there's a special irony that they could call us gorillas, but we wouldn't be the ones chimping out.
Paper is the stupidest; how is that even supposed to be insulting? Scraped the bottom for the barrel so hard for that one that it brought up gravel from underneath.
You dont even need the whole word, just 'N' is enough to get more of a reaction than any of these nonsense words. Also I'm a scofflol and don't forget it.
Second, like myself that's using a British spelling, so this attempt at culture war is more likely to be coming from outside the US although again like myself this doesn't automatically mean they are British.
Other examples
Melanin deficient
Human bodies only need melanin when existing in geographical regions with intense solar radiation. When you do not live in these places your body no longer needs to waste time and energy on things like melanin production.
Colonisers
Again that's a British spelling.
Also China called.
And Imperial Japan.
And Russia. Do Slavs count today?
unwhipped cream
... Are they trying to own people by saying "Haha, you weren't whipped by a slavemaster!"
Seriously? How dumb are these retards?
lint leeches
This one doesn't make sense in the slightest. Do black people not have belly buttons?
unscented candles
I have 2 types of white candle within arms reach that are scented 'wild jasmine' and 'lavender'. Nothing about while candles requires them to be scented and nothing about non white candles requires them to be non scented. The wokester writing this sounds like a 12 y/o Brit who is trying too hard to play their way into the good books of other wokies.
culture vultures
Reminded that again whites are either "without culture" or "culture thieves".
This one almost makes me think the author is 'Murican as comparatively Europe is a massive melting pot of cultures with a history of war. The US however is that young a country there are not only buildings older than it in many places throughout Europe but also many, many Americans have zero ancestry of worth they frantically try to cling on to some European heritage like it matters more in the world.
ice chimps
Please, please be dumb enough to use this one more regularly. I can see the backlash from here.
vanilla gorillas
This one too. Esp since vanilla is the second most expensive spice to produce after saffron due to labour requirements.
yeast maggots
Again, play that one and see how it backfires. Guarantee it will offend more women across the board than any white male in existence.
tighty whiteys
Oh no, our underwear not only exists but remains where it should rather than with the rest of our lower body wear dropping around our ankles.
soup cookies
What?
string cheese
My dog fucking loves this and I have zero issue being called it either since the alternative suggests obesity.
"Ice Chimps" can I trademark that? I am now inspired to create a brand of overpriced designer "Ice Chimp" goods featuring a smiling geometric chimp head.
Most of those names are mostly “What’s small and white?” Gringo is probably the most derogatory “white” name and vaguely just means Foreigner (entomology comes from their usage and translation twist of “Its Greek to Me.”) It’s also weird they use monkey terms a few times when who ever says Monkey on Twitter, a Twatter screams racist.
It’s mostly used as a catch all to all non-Latin people but since the majority of tourists to Mexico is white Americans, it tends to stick to the demographic.
A) Snow monkeys and ice chimps sound cool. I'm reclaiming them.
B) It's all state of mind, anyway. "Nigger" only holds more power than those others because people let it. To a black person who has embraced the victimhood culture they've been fed, almost any single word is more offensive than anything on this list of white "slurs." Example: "Boy," just looking at the language, is less offensive than anything here. And yet there would be plenty of people that threw a fit.
If for some reason I had a really religious pacifist friend, the nickname flow from Quaker Oats into Oatmeal seems like it would be a really realistic occurrence.
I don't see how these are supposed to be insulting. "Poopy-head", in all its infantile childishness, would at least be intimating some lack of hygiene.
"Those marshmallow minions over there, they're probably conspiring to have a nonviolent and safe barbecue with the community to foster community spirit! How evil!", see? It's just ridiculous sounding.
It's really funny as I don't think it'll ever work because whites know that they're superior, racially denigrated doesn't matter.
Maybe y'all saw the episode of boondocks where the black guy tries to start a fight with a white guy who gets momentarily angry and then stops and says to himself "oh wait I don't have to do this I'm white"
That's basically where we're at. I don't need to get angry at your racial slurs, as I don't view myself as some subhuman loser. Blacks most of all could do with some serious self esteem as an entire race.
Honestly, the reason black culture is so fucked right now is the fact that the overwhelming majority of black men are raised by single moms and taught to be just as emotional as them.
The attempt at making cracker an anti-white slur has been a lot more amusing to me after reading Thomas Sowell's explanation for where it came from and what it actually meant. It's basically what I mean when I say nigger.
Also chucklin' at how many of these revolve around random food items.
I mean, even "cracker" isn't particularly offensive. Although if you hear it in person, probably best to assess the probability of you getting shanked in the very near future.
"Nigger" isn't even objectively offensive. It just comes from the Latin word for 'black'. It's interesting that 'nigger' is offensive, but negro less so even though they both come from Spanish - and 'black' is now the preferred term even though it's literally the same thing.

On the other hand, she was a fan of Kendrick Lamar so she gets what's coming to her.
N-I-double-Guh-R, nigger.
The fact this word has such a pavlovian effect on people is astounding, and seems intentional.
If it was so offensive to blacks then black entertainment wouldn’t be riddled with it. They only pretend to be offended when a white person says it.
They've been raised to believe everything is racism so it's impossible for them to tell what real racism is anymore.
They've been told that using racial slurs themselves is fine but if white people do it, it's racist. It's ridiculous and contradictory, but that's what happens when words don't mean anything anymore and you just go by what everyone else tells you to believe.
Hearing it causes them to chimp out (something they really like to do. Apparently it reminds them of home)
Yep. Only you can decide how you react. But it does look stupid to call each other that while also hyperventilating if a white person says it. Just my opinion
I find the use of it outside of comedy to be extremely ignorant. It just makes you look like a troglodyte at best.
Being offended is something that is in your power to control. I'm not saying it's easy, and it's never a good feeling to have hate and vitriol spewed at you, but at the end of the day it's within your power to decide whether to let it offend you or not.

Gaijin, though its connotations are much more shaky than other examples.
Is that one a slur though? It seems to be used more matter-of-factly than as an insult, and also encapsulates whites, blacks, hispanics, even other asians.
Gaijin is more or less "foreigner". A word that definitely can have hostile meanings, but also perfectly factual ones, but rarely complimentary ones. Evil or Neutral, not Good.
When your culture is as xenophobic as the Japanese, "foreigner" takes on a sinister tone.
That is the fun thing. It definitely can and is used as an insult. Context and intend matters. Just like with other words like nigger.
exactly, except the Japanese don't scream that only they can use it.
No no, these are all incredibly powerful and violent and you are 100% justified sucker punching or shooting someone if you even think you heard one.
Don't let them have their cake and eat it, make them share the shit sandwich they served up.
Yeah in the past there was a common understanding of "fighting words" and that you were just if you retaliated against somebody instigating you like that. Of course in the modern day the Justice system will not side with you unless you are a "diverse minority"

I’ll believe you when tribes figure out plumbing and live past 40
Aren't most tribes hunter-gatherers? Not much use for plumbing.
Doesn't like a quarter of this board rail against quote-unquote a certain tribe being too technologically, socially, and financially successful? See, tribes can be perfectly adept.
In theory yes, they could be. Tribalism as idealogy could work, and unlike Anarchy, can actually exist in the real world.
That said, I don't know of anything notable to respect any African tribe.
Did you watch "What is a Woman?"
To me, knowing what men & women are, shouldn't be worth respecting. But I completely understand, that in these crazy times, why somone would respect something bare mimimum like that. I don't mean this disrespectfully, I really do understand why you said that.

I do like "cornstarch crusaders" and "garlic goblins"
Garlic goblins is a weird one, since China, India, and pretty much all the South and East Asian countries consume the vast majority of global garlic production. I guess Asians are honorary Whiteys again today,
Garlic I think is popular in Romania (Transylvania)
Well by most of the residents….. the extremely old seem to be repulsed by it for some reason
Also in Italy and Southern France.
That said, I'm pretty sure it's not clever or anything, it's just referring to the fact that garlics are white.
I heard that there is a Japanese slur for Koreans that translates to "garlic eaters".
I love garlic spice mixes on my food
Garlic goblins sound like it would be French-specific. I'm partial to vanilla gorillas- there's a special irony that they could call us gorillas, but we wouldn't be the ones chimping out.
Paper is the stupidest; how is that even supposed to be insulting? Scraped the bottom for the barrel so hard for that one that it brought up gravel from underneath.
Italians. I swear, every Italian in my neighbourhood growing up looked like they were scared of vampires, with fucktons of garlic hanging by the door.
Were they eaten by vampires? No. Thus, their precautions worked.
I’m gonna start a band and name it Bleach Demons.
Bleach Demon is my other superhero name.
Salty Scallywag and The Bleach Demons, one night only!
Sounds good
That’s true. Bleached Saints then.
I liked the phrase used by Gay Hitler : "toilet seat complexion individual".
He was too dumb to realize that made him "toilet content complexion individual".
You dont even need the whole word, just 'N' is enough to get more of a reaction than any of these nonsense words. Also I'm a scofflol and don't forget it.
Identitarians hate the N-word.
That is because they're spoiled and are rarely, if ever, told 'no'.
Now I wanna see some of these folks watch The Knights who say Ni- scene from Monty Python's holy grail.
I don't see them claiming that ancient Egyptians were white, just to have one civilization.
Feels like projection.
Snow roaches will never not be funny.
Why do so many of these seem like slurs against gays?

I wouldn't Say that first because I'm never going to use racial slurs first but if you start it I'm going to end it.
Anyways good luck on taking the word back, it'll be a few centuries before you do the way you people keep hyperventilating over it
