So my post is asking for equality for all walks of life, and the first response basically states

"not all racial slurs are created equal"

Correct.

This is pretty much my exact point.

I thought your point was the following:
My point, everyone is so worried about what box you come from. The actions of some from one box are tolerated while the exact same actions from others in a different box are abhorrent. Why is this? When something bad happens, people care less about what happened, then about WHO DID IT. Again, why is this?

I tried to illustrate to you why that is.

PS. You misread about whiteface, those were insults lobbied at my wife, (derogatory racial slurs towards her, she is not painting her face white.)

I did not misread anything.

We don't need a history lesson. We need to move forward. A racial slur should be a racial slur, it is being used by one person to insult another. There should be no difference but there clearly is... and that is my entire point.

It is easy for those who never experienced such situations, or who are not constantly reminded of those times, to say "move forward".
