Long story short, my GF is from a race that my bigot father has told me horrible racist shit about for years, just boilerplate Fox News-level analysis of why to hate and fear X race. They met for the first time, and after she left I told him I was uncomfortable introducing them bc of his bigotry. He got all, "I'm not looking at her as X, I'm looking at her as your girlfriend", but I was like "I don't fucking care how you want to justify it, you're a racist bigot and all you're capable of doing is repeating whatever fascist ideology you watch on TV. It doesn't make me feel any better that you think she's 'one of the good ones.'" Then I left.
I've thought that for a long time, finally said it, but I feel horrible about it - it doesn't exactly make me feel good to make an old man feel angry and sad. But at the end of the day it's his own god damn fault for subjecting me to bigoted ideology for decades.
just had to vent a lil bit thanks comrades :meow-hug:
Awesome job, comrade :fidel-salute: . Western culture forces people to think family means ignoring the horrible red flags of family members and that one should respect their elders, nah fam you gotta earn that respect and love. So more or less anymore communication with your father should exactly be what you just did, you don't need to have someone that respects and loves the propaganda news over the happiness of family.
