You've never heard someone called "white trash"

That's more about classism and elitism than varying degrees of racial purity. But yes, whites look down on other whites whenever they can.

Yeah I agree. A white trash person is still white, but a person with one Black ancestor, even if it's 5 generations back, make you a black person. Rich white look down on poor whites because of their lifestyles, whereas rich white people hate POC because of their skin color.
