re: #35 Douchecanoe and Ryan Too
I just kinda cover it up. Honestly, my parents are more anti-Democratic than they are racist. Not to say that the race component isn’t there, but they managed to teach me pretty well not to hate on non-white people. So I just nod and smile and let them ramble on about evil librul this and evil librul that, and then when we’re gone I tell my wife how full of crap they were and leave it at that.
Yeah, I can’t do that. I make it rather clear that I don’t tolerate labels. “I can do quite a lot of generalizing myself if I want to, but I choose not to.” while looking straight into their eyes.
Or I say that I don’t want to hear about politics—it’s a family gathering.
