And in today's suprising presidential advisor is a white nationalist racist piece of shit news.....
"When you support a racist in any way shape or form that makes you a racist as well"
I disagree with this. So - if I help out an older relative who is racist by buying them groceries or something I'm racist? I really hate how people try to draw a line and make something Yes/No or Black/White (no pun intended) when there is a lot of gray.
Borrowed and paraphrased from the Buddhists who say that when you support evil you are evil as well.
Are there gray areas? Maybe
I, for one, will not associate with anyone, family or otherwise, who is a known racist or anti-semite.
No place for fear, hate, or ignorance in my life.
I've been in an Uber where the driver went on a rant about media concentration and how seven Jews in the basement run it all, and I proceeded to explain how and why that's offensive and what the harm has been, as well as the likely origin story of how Jews started handling wealth professionally (point one: regularly oppressed people cling to what they have and consider security paramount; point two: in the days of sects like calvinism where wealth handling was dirty, someone had to do it - and Jews weren't morally opposed).
I've also been travelling with people who refused to step into a mosque to see its beauty, and have shamed them into entering when I pointed out there's no justification for their opposition (which was derived from racism).
Letting a racist remain racist, to me, is far more dangerous than putting in an effort (no matter the odds) to change or at least inform a person. There was a great interview with an ex-KKK member on a podcast (can't remember which), who had started an organization to introduce KKK members to black people. He said that close to 100% of KKK members he convinces to sit down and with him and a black person, shortly thereafter leave the KKK. His point was that exposure to the truth that racist concepts only exist in a person's head (and that there really aren't many, if any, racist realities that your standard WMA has to experience), is usually enough to sway a mind or start a journey of information leading to being reformed in some way.'05 - TO, '06 - TO 1, '08 - NYC 1 & 2, '09 - TO, Chi 1 & 2, '10 - Buffalo, NYC 1 & 2, '11 - TO 1 & 2, Hamilton, '13 - Buffalo, Brooklyn 1 & 2, '15 - Global Citizen, '16 - TO 1 & 2, Chi 2

if I chose not to associate with anyone, family or otherwise, who is a known racist/bigot/etc or whatever, that would cut out half my immediate family. I choose to try to promote tolerance to them when it comes up, and love them unconditionally when it doesn't.

This is just so fucking delicious, couldn't ask for better witness testimony. With that said - I expect nothing significant to come out of anything because the world is garbage.0
