Next time i see somebody about to post the word "honky" up in here, I'm gonna get my friends in the CIA to pop a long-range rifle shell through the back of their head..... and then tell everyone it was a heart attack.

...serious, though, it would be nice to specify 'american whites', because there are a lot of pale people in the world who refuse to be lumped in with everyone whose ancestors lived in a similar climate..that's an example of language as a tool of racial oppression for you right there...
("everyone on this side of the line- you're on the white team."
"But I hate playing with these assholes....")

see, I'm a New Zealander with Polish and English ancestors, but I don't like being lumped in with 'white' culture.... basically because it "represents everything i hate", to paraphrase nofx... besides which, I'm more of an orangey-pink, if we're gonna be colour-coded.

...no problem with 'honky' though...
