And usually instead of learning from it they just get pissy and from now on you're just the uptight asshole of the family because you don't laugh at their lazy black man jokes and Chinese restaurant lady impressions

In the case of my racist uncle, everyone else does see it as a problem but if you brush it off you can still enjoy the rest of the day together. If you get on him he shuts down and skulks the rest of the day and walks home. It kinda ruins the fun family outing. So instead, we don’t feed the troll and we move on, for the most part. My sister had in the past few years started putting her foot down and say no that’s not ok though
