Re: White people of FS, how many non-white friends do you have?

(Anonymous) 2019-01-06 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
A rich Chinese guy there is probably like a rich white gay man in SF.

That sounds about right.

Yeah, they're going to face some discrimination but I don't think it's presumptive to say some people in those situations might not quite get how bad it is for others.

Case in point: I've kind of withdrawn a bit from my friend lately, and the reason is because he's close friends with this incredibly bigoted, racist, sexist white dude. I mean this guy is just awful (charismatic, but awful). He thinks women are sluts for having sex outside of marriage, he thinks people of color should marry within their race. Horrible shit. But my friend is just like, "It's no big deal; he's harmless; he's just confused." My friend doesn't share any of this guy's beliefs, but this guy's prejudice just rolls off his back like water off a duck.

He doesn't get that other people are vulnerable to this dudes prejudice, in a way he isn't. And I'm glad my friend doesn't have to feel vulnerable to that kind of prejudice, but I'm not really comfortable with the fact that he's so accepting of it.
