I said that white people shouldn't have been offended by "snowflake" or "barbie" but maybe more charged terms like "whitie" or "cracker" because snowflake and barbie aren't as charged. People white people haven't been oppressed (and I think I meant oppressed by people using that language against them).
So I guess it's not a straight up question of whether or not they've been oppressed.
The moral of that point was that there's not a history of racial abuse to go from for white people, so terms aren't as charged as they are for minorities, be it black, hispanic, asian, purple, etc.
