and I've had bigots treat me like just anyone else to my face. If I was a fucking moron I might come to similar conclusions to the author.

It's much of this, as a middle aged white guy, other middle aged white people, m and f will say the most bigoted and racist shit I've ever heard. They assume becase I look like them i am a fucked up nazi like they are, this includes my 81 ur old mother.

They are polite as pie when someone of color is around and I am reminded of thay quip about the most polite people in Germany were actual Nazis and I completely understand that now.
