Also, I don't really care where someone's from. Someone born of a bigoted family doesn't get to get away with bigotry just because their pops dropped the N word like its no big deal.


Not making any accusations here.

Now this is just as ridiculous to me as what you seem to think of other people. Nothing is more impressionable than a child. If you, as a child, are exposed every day to what your parents believe, what else are you supposed to believe unless you have a high enough IQ to think for yourself critically on these issues, which most people don't have. Most of what people believe is a regurgitation of their family's beliefs, and that's no one's fault. This is developmental psychology, my dad runs a foster care company that houses children that are more ****ed up than you will ever understand, but it's impossible to blame them or think less of them because every last one of them were exposed to unthinkable situations in their everyday life. It's pretty much the same thing.

Obviously this does not apply universally, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt sometimes when they say ignorant things about issues like this is all I'm saying.
