I personally don't feel offended if someone calls me a "cracker"/etc. but why are some of you ignoring that AB tweeted "KKK IGGY"? That's just as offensive and ignorant as saying a black person is a criminal because they're black.
Boohoo. Both of those words/terms are used because of white people and their trashiness throughout history. I swear y'all gotta know learn where these words come from.

If she can call herself a runaway slave master she can handle being called KKK Iggy. Stop coddling that girl.
You can be racist to white people. They just won't be offended or care because you experience so much privilege being white (economically, socially, politically, etc. it's easier to get a job, the media is constantly reinforcing the idea that you're part of the most attractive race, you earn more, etc) so when someone says something "racist" to me like "white people can't dance" I don't even care.
So when people say "you can't be racist to white people" this is what they mean. You can try and be racist to white people, but it will fall on deaf ears because the odds are always in their favour.
Um no. You can't be racist to white people because white people aren't oppressed. You can be prejudiced but a huge part of racism is oppression. Racism is so much more than saying "white people are annoying." It's a form of both prejudice and power. It's systematic and institutional. Which is why it is literally impossible, especially for a minority, to be racist towards a white person. Y'all a really need to educate yourselves.
White people in South Africa are racist as ever. Know your history. Google "Apartheid"
You'll probably say "well that's 20 years ago!" which would be dumb but someone will probably reply with that. Notice today that Die Antwoord group. White people in South Africa are racist too. Sorry!
Obviously my perception of racism in America as an Australian is a lot different to that of actual black people living in America. Sorry if I've caused offence with my view. But that's not really my fault as I'm not subjected to that. Perhaps I am ignorant.

See this is cute, apologising for being offensive than apologising for someone being offended is the way to go
I would like someone to give a logical defense of Azelia's attacking white people's skin tone and saying they're KKK.
I'm not calling her racist, but she is VERY ignorant. And ANY person of color who cackles at her use of discriminatory comments needs to take a very good look at themselves. You CAN'T advocate for equality within the sexes and races while immaturely cosigning attacks against someone's skin color no natter if they're black, white, etc. You do see how that contradicts the movement?

Cracker is a term that used to be used, during slavery, by black people BECAUSE OF THE CRACKING OF THE WHIPS that they used to used on black people. Like even the term "cracker" itself stemmed from superiority and power. That is not even remotely as offensive as the terms and words stemmed from NEGATIVE connotations used against minorities. Y'all want to be opressed so bad
No. And if you seriously think institutional racism exists against white people you're beyond help in the intelligence department.
Although racism against whites doesn't prohibit their rights and privelages, but to say that other races don't hold hatred towards rights is just plain ignorant.
