What morality lies in bigotry? None. What morals exist in anti-bigotry? Every single one of them. When we experience bigotry, we know it’s wrong. To me, morality and bigotry are two opposites, and bigotry is wrong in both sense of the word, that is, as something illogical and immoral. We never say a racist man is moral, but is anti-racism moral in word or deed? Communists don’t just oppose racism in ideology; we act against it. Ours is a political movement, a fight against oppression. Thus, the answer is self-evident: No, we can’t be racist against whites. By virtue of our anti-racism being a political movement based on the liberation of the oppressed races, whites, as a race, are excluded from this anti-racism. When liberals claim “cracker” is a racist slur, they prove themselves to be crackers because only a cracker would take offense.

    White supremacy amongst Imperial America’s institutions is a well documented phenomenon and you’ll have a hard time finding any social scientists denying its existence. You can’t just play Mad Libs by replacing ‘white’ with a minority and expect it to work perfectly. Example:

    “But whites received on average 36 percent more callbacks to interview than African-Americans with equal job qualifications, and we found no evidence that this level of discrimination had changed.”

    If you tried to make fun of this by writing ‘Blacks received on average 36 percent more callbacks to interview than Whites with equal job qualifications’, most people would rightfully look at you like you had just lost your godddamned mind. The old switcheroo simply does not work here, since it requires you to forget that reality exists.

    This is why I get annoyed when somebody reacts to an insult to White men with ‘omg what if u said that about joos’ or ‘omg what if u said that about blacks’. An insult to White men isn’t like an insult to Jews or Black folk. It’s more like someone insulting ‘Aryans’ in the 1930s or 1940s. If you don’t believe me, look at how the Fascists reacted to Theodore N. Kaufman.

    Now, if someone insulting Whites or men bums you out for a bit then I can understand that, but the correct approach is not to scold anybody or show them the ol’ switcheroo. That isn’t going to fix the situation. It’ll probably only make things worse, if anything.
