they're not a hate group. nobody is hurt by the word "cracker". it's like a feminist saying "kill all men" or a trans person saying "die cis scum". I'm white, I didn't feel hated.

Felt hatred is not the metric by which to judge the worth or reasoning behind the making of a statement.

What matters behind any words, behind any meanings, is what the person saying them means.

A feminist saying "die cis scum" as a parody and attack on idiots that do the opposite for trans people is harming nobody and is perfectly find to say what they do.

A feminist saying the same because they are sick of the oppression of trans people, and are legitimately feeling hatred has zero. Absolutely zero ground to stand on.

Someone using the word "cracker" to just refer to white people isn't insulting or hateful at all. Someone using the word cracker in terms of "I am above you and looking down at you" has absolutely zero ground to stand on.

I don't care if what someone says makes another feel hatred or not. The point is not to protect feelings, it's to create and establish a working and functional society. A society where one group despises and attacks another for ANY reason, is not a functional one. It has nothing to do with power.
