I was hitting it off with my new neighbor and he said something like I'm glad you're cool like one of us [40 something white heterosexual cis men] because we're under attack nudge nudge wink wink. I'm good, later man.
I always hate that assumption that I must be racist because I share the same skin tone as a racist.
I worked with a guy that seemed pretty laid back and alright. He was my supervisor at the time and just out of the blue after knowing him a couple months just the most racist shit said and I was speechless.
I was hanging with a girl that was pretty chill. We had hung a few times over the few months we had met, and had a nice platonic thing going.
She came over and we started to watch some documentary, and in it, there was an abusive man of African descent. She straight up said, "I think there's something genetic with them that causes them to have a short temper and behave like that".
Yeah, we never hung out again.
"I think there's something genetic with them that causes them to have a short temper and behave like that"
I wonder if it's the same genetic trait shared by police officers... 🤔
Nah, that’s just tiny peepee anger. They finally can be the asshole bully they always were.
then ppl wonder why it's hard for men to make friends..
