I dont like any of those derogatory words but you have to understand the logical progression of things.I'm not black or white but I do feel uncomfortable when non-white people use 'cracker' or any alternative spelling online or other deregotry terms for likes and clapbacks. Like for some it feels good to attack the 'white man' but if they said the N-word, hell would break loose (as it should) but that doesn't mean the jibes againt white people or any other race makes it acceptable.
Anything to distract us from bigger issues..by focusing on petty issues like differences of skin colour. I also don't want people to take this the wrong way, I appreciate that it is a very complex issue but I promise you there are bigger threats out there..
Why are some non whites angry and use those words. Because mostly they have been put in a shitty situation, largely because of white people who run the system, and other white people who help them administer it.
Reconciliation for past wrongs has never taken place so of course there will be pent up anger.
Refusing to reconcile, is the initial problem. Many whites today are so full of pride and anger and do not want any reconciliation, so why should they be surprised if that breeds anger towards them.
