    Subtext: she's native and it's Ottawa which is why the whites formed a mob and banged on her car.

    I think when the white woman realized she was being recorded she claimed the native lady took her phone and everyone immediately took her side even though she clearly could unlock the phone and was videoing.

      Rich white people, especially ones older then 40, seem to be unhealthily obsessed with the idea that all non-whites are thieves. My own family (I'm white) still make my jaw drop with the outright racist shit they say. My own mother, who is usually a very sweet person, recently said she cancelled a vet appointment for her dog because the receprionist 'sounded Chinese' and 'probably wouldn't look after the dog properly.' My father rants about 'African migrant gangs'.

      Oh, and it I have a problem with any of my families racist shit they call make me feel like I some crazy bleeding heart. It's insane how deeply ingrained racism is in anglo culture.

        not to excuse them for falling for it but the fucking media needs to be burned to the ground because it really pushes this shit, like I never heard my dad say "ms-13" until fox news went nuts with that shit but then all of a sudden "don't go downtown MS-13 might shoot you" what the fuck dad

        There's a certain type of white person who will test the water around other white people until they can say the n word, typically within 30 minutes of starting a conversation. It's always "ironic" but we know what that means :fash-bash: . I've had this happen on two separate occasions.

          It's like that bit in the Sopranos where Tony claims black people steal cars forgetting for a moment that he runs a ring of car thieves

      The average cracker will always side with other crackers in public. I'm reminded of any number of videos I've seen of PoC getting slurs yelled at them in public by some racist cracker and only when the PoC tries to stand up for themselves do surrounding crackers intervene *on the racist cracker's side".
