no.

as a white man, i can tell you that calling another white guy a racist is not the worst insult you can throw. but i will tell you what is.

one day, i was loading up the truck for a day of work. a door and 5 windows. i had two helpers with me. one was american born of two mexican parents. he refused to be identified as mexican though. he insisted on chicano, which is the correct term. the other was a self described "pineapple". he was japanese, hawaiian, native american, and regular old white american. but everyone thought he was black, including my chicano helper.

so the chicano and the pineapple get into some sort of racial discussion while i am loading up the truck. casual use of the word 'nigger' is happening. i am disheartened by the discussion. so i stop what i am doing and i ask them...

"hey, what is the worst word you can call a black person?" "nigger", they both respond.

"what is the worst word you can call a white person?" no response.

"nigger", i respond.

i never heard either of them use that word in any of the remaining months we spent working together.

I have no idea how any educated human being can say that those comments were not that bad... that's exactly what perpetuates this bs.

The first lady literally said we should bulldoze a fully legal public event... how is that not that bad. Idk anyone who would consider getting bulldozed not that bad.

Who ever said that? I wouldn't hire a fellow white person if he/she had a stupid name also.
