re: #230 Absalom, Absalom, Obdicut

He was a bigot in the way many people are bigots: He didn’t spend any time or effort thinking about how much harder life was for non-whites, and didn’t give a shit about helping them.

That’s true, Obdi. I guess I meant bigot in a way where I don’t think he felt AAs were inferior to him but I do think, yes he was terrible about empathizing about those who weren’t white and he didn’t seem to care about helping them.
