Some guy I’m not friends with from high school follows me on Instagram and every time I post something even semi political (like governor mandates are dumb or looting is bad), he’ll respond to my story arguing with me.
It got to the point that he called me a racist for being white, and then said “and by that, I am racist too”.
I explained “Well, I look at everyone as equals regardless of skin color. But if you don’t think that way, then I guess you’re a racist”.
Dude completely flipped out. He still responds but I just leave him on read now. There’s no point having an honest conversation with someone like this. I was willing to have a dialogue up until the point that he literally thinks being white makes me a racist. That’s never going to get us anywhere.
These people have brainwashed themselves. Considering he votes Democrat though, maybe he actually is racist...
