    Let me be clear: The ones that are aware, the ones that are literally sitting across the table (not simply a member of a mind bogglingly large amorphous group of vague political beliefs), the ones that are actually racist

    See, we’re talking about the same people, you’re just more willing to believe the majority are innocent of knowing exactly what they voted for. I don’t, and I do ascribe heavily to that Teddy Roosevelt principle of personal responsibility. The buck stops with me. This lot claim to, and don’t.

    If it helps, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking and I believe I’ve narrowed down the problem with my family in particular. “I don’t have to prove shit”, they each said to me, and that’s really why I’ve given up on them. There’s no talking to that.
