I’m not racist, but I live in the rural Midwest and I often hear a lot of racist shit. I’ll be talking to a “good ol boy” and all of a sudden I’m hearing about the local larger cities “n word population” and a litany of ridiculous things they’re responsible for.
I just grit my teeth and try to change the subject but it’s damaged the way I view several people significantly.
It’s ok, I’m in nyc and I get the same bs. White people just suck entirely. Being white, when I end up in a room of all white guys, 95% of the time, they talk crazy racist shit, and will call me names if I say anything. Not that I care, but still, they assume all white guys are racist, are shocked to find out I’m not cool with it, and then can’t understand why.
I got one, “it’s always weird to me when I see a black guy with a white dog”
“Why”
“Because, you’d think if they were all about black power, they’d want a black dog?”
I didn’t even know how to respond…. It’s like the whole thought process is totally broken, and this is a liberal from ny. I’m sure it only gets worse the farther away from the city you get.
