    There's no such thing as reverse racism.
    Its just called racism, no matter the color of the skin. I'm sorry, I don't buy into made up definitions of power+prejudice to grab moral superiority.

    To the point of the subject.
    Yeah cracker is offensive if used to demean people of a specific color, just as the word ****** (pfft the censorship) is offensive if used to demean people of a specific color. Tbh I'd allow them both on the server since they're just words, but I can see why cracker wouldnt be banned because its mostly used for other reasons besides anti-white racism.

    Is this some type of American thing? Never heard of cracker as a racist term.

    Yes.
    "In The Sensitivity of White People and the Problem of Race in America, I proposed that the term “cracker,” when used in reference to white people, originated when black slaves equated racist bosses with the cracking sound of the whips they wielded."

    But those are mostly used for offensive meanings. Except for damn. I don't know why damn is censored.
    Or gay
    Or ez
    Or nigeria
    So to be fair all but ass now that I think about it

    Brawl thinks people will say "Nigeria" instead of n***a. But hey, they censor "damn" (which makes the chat worse), but not "retard" or "autist", so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    I agree, but at the same time I don't think anything should be blocked. If Brawl is going to censor words, they should only censor the words people would actually be offended by.
