7. Follow this then. "wypipo" is insulting because of the broad brush.

The word "wypipo" is a term that paints an entire group with the same brush based solely upon their skin color.

We find that wrong under other circumstances. We should be consistent and find it wrong in this circumstance.

Note: I am not defending the poor, obnoxious, heinous, and otherwise deplorable behavior of SOME white people. I am not defending those people who told POC to vote for the GOP because the Dems are the "Plantation." Not at all. I'm taking issue with categorizing a whole set of people using a word that is based on their skin color.
