    They were with the Democrats with Jimmy Carter but they fled the Democrats for Reagan. Now the Working class is fleeing the Democrats and going to Trumpism. This is because the Democrats were complicit in hollowing out the good paying jobs of the Midwest.

    In my state, wigger type white dudes call themselves whiteboy, but normal white dudes don't like it. I've seen a few fights cuz a black dude called the white dude whiteboy. But they said it in a racist type way. I saw one fight in a bar, the black dude got knocked out with one punch by a rough biker looking white dude.

    Depends on who says it and how he says it.

    It is about the same offensive as Black Boy or Darky i guess......

    It wasn't particularly about race, they were arguing over a bet on a pool game. But then the black guy got in the white dude's face and in the midst of arguing he called him Whiteboy with great contempt. The white just hit him with one punch and the black dude hit the floor, knocked out. I was like wtf lol it was downtown in the city of New Orleans in the French Quarter.

    I don't think white boy is offensive. Whitey is offensive, and it's in the list of racial slurs.

    Closest thing I've been called in a somewhat condescending tone is "galego", but that's not really insulting to be honest. Latest one on the Internet seems to be "palmito", which is kind of funny. It's the pale heart of palm which we use in some dishes here.

    To me calling someone black, white, yellow etc sounds strange. I never use these terms in real life
