This is a serious post. I have been a long time lurker of T_D (since 2016). I have voted conservative since the day I turned 18 and have been employed since I was 16. 20 years later, everyone around me at work and in my personal life is a cucked liberal, brainwashed by leftist mass media. The only exception being my wife, who has also always been a hard worker and proudly conservative. My wife is not white. Aside from her, T_D has been the only other place I could turn to maintain sanity these past 4 years, and just lurking and reading posts/comments was enough to do that.
I’ve always been even handed towards people throughout my life regardless of their skin color and have always treated people equally. That is how my conservative parents were, and that’s how they raised me. My wife never, ever had an issue with me being white. But lately (starting less than a month ago) that’s changed, despite us being together for 10 years. She now tells me she hates the fact that I’m white. She used to believe all races contained racists, and now it’s just white people.
My wife watches the news (mass media) every day, and when I asked her tonight about the Nascar noose and what she thought of it, she hadn’t even heard it was a hoax (or at best a false claim). Remember, she watches the news everyday, including today. I tried explaining that the FBI investigation came up negative, didn’t want to hear it. Tried showing her the video of the garage tour of Talladega from 2017, showing the pull strings beside every door - didn’t want to look at it.
I am not asking for marital advice from you patriots, but I am curious if anyone out there in an interracial marriage/relationship is suddenly experiencing new tension in their relationship due to the mass media promoting and propagating racial tension. I don’t have anywhere else to turn.
Thanks for hearing me out. God bless you all and God bless America. Trump 2020.
My son is in an interracial relationship. At first his girlfriend said color should not matter and that she was always drawn to white men because black men did not treat their women well..not my words hers..she joked that she was the oreo in her family..Now since the George Floyd protests..she decided it was her calling to participate in these protests..I protested because I said they turn violent and BLM is not about George Floyd..long story short..she has gone full blown BLM..and has brought my son in the fray with her.. I try to stay out of it but I have to say she has changed and is encouraged by her family to participate in these protests..which she claims have always been peaceful..I disagree,,I do not think I could ever look at her the same way as before..colorblind.
Sorry to hear that, but it sounds like you’re pretty much going through the same thing as me. Guess we just have to hope people snap back to their senses when the media gives them the next biggest distraction.
That is why I responded to you..it does sound like we are experiencing something very similar. I hope they do come to their senses..because to me it feels as if race relations are going in the wrong direction, since I know as a country and a person I haven't seen it this bad in many many years..sad. Best of Luck to you. MAGA!
Likewise Patriot, MAGA!
