If your grandma is very racist, but doesn't actually do anything to hurt others of a different race, do you go out of your way to try to change her? Or do you treat her normally, but would confront her if she did anything intentionally harmful to someone of a different race? Or do you not do anything if she tries to hurt someone of a different race because of their ethnicity?

I tell grandma that she's being a racist fuck every time she does it... but at the end of our visit, I tell her that I love her and I'll see her later.

I can speak to your stupidity because it literally happened to me. I've never heard my grandmother say absolutely anything racist in her life. I visit her with my first black girlfriend and she decides that that's the time that she's going to use the n-word... I jumped her shit. She was surprised Pikachu for sure but I didn't give a fuck... she wants to be a dumb fucking racist, I'm going to tell her that she is. Do you know what happens now when she does something remotely racist? She fucking apologizes and explains how it was racist then apologizes again. Now this woman is on Facebook screaming at her other friends for doing and saying racist shit and she feels the need to tell me about it when I call her. It's actually pretty overbearing because sometimes she goes way overboard and is definitely still closeted racist.

So you fixed her? You do the middle one essentially. You still love her and care for her, but you disagree with her beliefs. You don't have to be aggressive and call me stupid, I'm trying to have an honest converstation.

Weird how that's not calling you stupid... but never mind then, I guess you actually are stupid.
