Caucasian is the closest to "white", and even that is fairly arbitrary.

In practice, it's in group Vs out group behaviour. If you're different, someone will take offence to that. The line of difference varies, but the effect is often the same.

Interestingly, "the left" could well be described as an in-group of out-groups. Those who are pushed out, in 1 way or another, gathered together for mutual support. Plus those who empathize with that position.
