These same people couldn’t even bring themselves to say “black lives matter [if all lives matter]”.
It’s perplexing that a nation (or rather 50 nations) can have both the friendliest people and simultaneously the most hateful people (I mean politically significant numbers of them).
Living in the South is truly bizarre. I’ve never seen such warm and heartfelt interracial relations in more liberal cities, and at the same time such blatant racism. Seems we’re mostly ok with “the blacks”, but my Asian wife has caught some clear bullshit. I’m not one to pull the rAcISM card quickly, and neither is she, but she’s told me tales. Since Trump 2.0, she’s clearly persona non grata when we travel Mississippi. They were much nicer, or seemed so, before.
