White people.
No matter how cool they seem the chances of them being a racist are high.
My math says 2/3 of white people are racist.
That leaves the other 1/3 that are at least neutral.. which is actually kinda strange given the circumstance (being a part of the dominant group, but not abusing minorities or even helping minorities).
I was once c00n adjacent. I was always very militant about Black issues, but I believed the hype that racism was pretty much over. I knew there were still hardcore racists, but I thought they were a small percentage. I left the hood at college age and didn't look back for about 25 years. Never had any major issues but always little nagging shyt like white people would say something slick or I'd get discriminated against at work. Again. Chalked it up to the small group of racists.
And then there was Trump. Suddenly all my polite and friendly white coworkers and neighbors were accepting Trump as their leader and not pushing back on any of the rhetoric he was spewing. Truth and justice did not matter to my white acquaintances. Only power.
I was shocked. Some of these people I considered friends. Had partied with them and been to their cribs. One of my old smash buddies even said some shyt like "well, give Trump a chance".
I literally skipped town. I just up and moved back home one day.
And now. I'm skeptical of any white person I meet. It's no hate from my end, just careful. Same as I treat a stray pit bull. I wish em the best but stay the fukc away from me cause I don't know you like that. And I tense up in case the pit tries some shyt, but I don't attack him.
