Right. And then there’s the whole “not being politically correct” thing which is pretty much an excuse to be an insensitive asshole without repercussions.

The most depressing thing I keep taking away is just how…not new this is. This shit wasn’t just created. Just brought out into the open. This racism has existed and fostered and festered. Just…now there doesn’t seem to be much reason to hide it or even code it anymore. And we only went maybe a couple of decades where it wasn’t ok to outright let the freak flag fly before reverting back to the mean.

It feels like this is just what America is, and always will be, no matter how hard it’s fought. America IS Racism, and trying to change it will just eventually get you swallowed up by the hate and spite that truly defines it, forever.
