Grew up on the poor side of town. Realized when I was young I wanted nothing to do with any kind of trash. Statistically, that means I need to live in well-to-do, white, conservative neighborhoods. Besides, the black people always preemptively hated me for being white. No need to argue with literal retards over stuff that doesn't even matter.

I wasn't "racist" until the left were determined to say "OMG BLACK EVERYTHING IS SUPERIOR LOOK WHITEY" and now I just don't care. I don't gaf what they think. If they love black culture so much, then go the hell on over to Africa. Live on what the black race has contributed to humanity in terms of technology or inventions.

It's not racist to look at stats. It's not racist to look at history. If black people want to hate whitey and they get a pass, it's only fair that we can say shove off, jogger. You and your 13/52 and 13/40.

I wasn't racist until I worked in social services. I was borderline "woke" until then. Now I am a little racist, I have to occasionally consciously remind myself to treat and see people as individuals when a knee-jerk thought springs up.

I've known plenty of great people of all races. I've known shitty people of most races. (I've yet to personally interact with an unpleasant Hispanic, Middle-Easterner, Jew or Indian despite having met at least 5 or more of each category.)

Social Service recipients just happen to very, very largely be shitty, entitled people, and blacks are over-represented social service recipients, so I met so many more blacks than ever before, under shitty conditions, and damn if it didn't effect me.

Got out of social services and suddenly every new black person I meet is as cool as anyone else. But those years took their toll on me and sometimes I have to remind myself; it's not like there was a shortage of people in social services being beat senseless by white partners, either.
