I guess ‘people shouldn’t be racists’ is so 2009...
For the 1st 17 years I lived here (from 1999-2016) I experienced probably one or two racist comments.
Since then it’s about once a week. Spurred on and normalised by these people.
Terrifying how anyone can consider voting for them and not realise that makes them a racist.

Recently I was in a Sichuanese restaurant when 3 drunk, white women came in demanding chips & water.
The staff were unbelievably polite and accommodating.
The women then started shouting ‘ching chong’ repeatedly.
No one did anything.
But I guess I ‘shouldn’t be a snowflake’

And yet I will go into work & hear colleagues talking at length about how white privilege doesn’t exist.
And I sort of sit there and think ‘it’s perhaps not socially appropriate for me to point out their BS’.
Moral of the story? I am always pointing out the BS from now on.
