Have to say I wasn’t quite sure where you were going with your first comment because I read ‘cracker’ as a synonym for ‘white supremacist’. I’m glad you followed it up with this. Persuasive.

One challenge I have is that race is real, though. Not biologically real. But it affects people in material ways. I think you’ve captured this already in your wording of ‘ideological excuse’ and ‘race theory’ but thought I’d mention it, anyway.
