    That would just give the racist uncle what they want. Fuck that. The racist uncle wants to put you in a low status place like the kids’ table so he doesn’t have to pretend you’re an equal and can regard you as an inferior.

        Because it’s not about what racist uncle thinks, it’s about what he’s doing, but thanks for helping racist uncle by misrepresenting the situation entirely.

          You’re not changing what racist uncle is doing or thinking no matter what you do. I deal with racist uncle too, you know. I’m busy radicalizing the kiddos ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            You’re not going to change my mind or convince me what I am doing is hopeless either, yet here you are still talking.

            It’s almost like we speak and call people out on wrongdoing because of principle and not for results.

            It’s almost like that’s more important and sets a positive example for everyone else around that racist uncle’s behavior isn’t just silently tolerated out of a misguided sense of hopelessness.

            And I’m gonna keep saying it even though it won’t get through to you. Aunt Bible Thumper.

                Why are you? Why do you resort to personal attacks every time I tell you what you don’t want to hear? Why can’t you just let shit go? Why does every discussion have to be a battle with you?

                I know why: because you’re just some petty asshole who’s out to win something, and I don’t have time for it. Go look in the mirror before bitching about other people.

                  Lol. You should have looked at my post history before trying to attack me. That, was my first comment. I have never interacted with you before, so it looks like you’re just projecting your issues onto me. It’s pathetic.

                  Calm down man.

      It doesn’t matter. Racist uncle is going to die early from a heart attack and those kids are going to be the people in charge when you’re needing to be cared for- invest in them.

        It matters to me and literally everyone else.

        Racist uncle will live to his high 70’s, early 80’s on average. And you know what he does? He abuses those kids you’re trying to radicalize.

        And all those kids will do is grow up to resent your iniquities and cowardice for refusing to stand up to racist uncle, because they know you only address them because they are weaker than you and easier for you to influence. Because it’s obvious to them you care more about using them as a political tool than about saving them from racist uncle, who molests them whenever he gets a chance. As in a lot. Their dads probably do, too, statistically.

        But have fun defending racist uncle, cousin alt-righter. Don’t tip your fedora too hard

          They said racist uncle and you turned him into racist raping uncle. Those are different and would need different reactions.
