So f*** all of you and the horse you rode on, I'm outta here!
Just waiting on the results of that IAT.

I'll even give you the link:

There's no shame in implicit biases if you acknowledge them, but there is shame when you deny that they exist.

Of course implicit racism (and other biases) exists. We all have a little racist in us. It's something we have to fight everyday.

I did try the test but I screwed it up. I just don't appreciate being called a card carrying member of the Ku Klux Klan just because I don't get wet over today's hip hop. I didn't say I hated the genre, it just isn't my cup of tea overall.

And, Batlord, yeah, I hear you. My parents had their biases and I was a little shocked when my Dad, a one time Democrat, was supporting Trump on Facebook. My step-father is even worse; he's one of those there are blacks and there are n- sort of people. Anyhow, a lot of the musical tastes are generational and maybe so are the attitudes, but it doesn't mean just because we're older we automatically hate certain groups.

I'll try the test again later, Yorke. I'm tied up with something else right now In the meantime, I'm just wondering what your kids will think of some of you (not meaning you, Yorke) when the time comes.

In other words, don't ever get old.
