    I was raised in a progressive, liberal family so I thought I was super unprejudiced but as I came into contact with more diverse environments than the one I came up in, I realized I absorbed lots of fucked-up prejudices from our society on a subconscious level, particularly about black people. I definitely have to catch myself and be aware of it.

      if you are white that means you are racist by default because we live in a society

      Yeah, my brain is pretty racist. It's been a thing I've been working to undo. Watched Black Lighting and a few episodes of Dear White People on Netflix. Fixed.

      Yeah just because I have progressive beliefs doesn't make me not racist. I have to actively combat racist thoughts all the time. By the way, sexual pathology has a GREAT deal to do with it to the surprise of absolutely no one.
