Is it just pure racism? Is it just overall hatred of poor people? Some combo of the two? Something else entirely?

    I certainly don't want to downplay your dad's racism by any means, I just want to add that in my life I've known so many people who get that angry and get so close to saying the n-word but they stop themselves because they know they aren't supposed to say that, even around other white people.

      When I check him on saying the n-word he does the bullshit Chris Rock skit of the difference between black people and n-words and swears up and down he's not racist. I want to punch him so badly, he's like a cartoon character.

          I have this feeling my dad's going to live to be old unfortunately. He's cheated death numerous times now and shows no signs of stopping. I've already told my mom when he goes I'm not going to his funeral, fuck him.

        By the way, I heard Chris Rock said he regrets doing that bit, because it was so validating for racists.

          I mean he's a piece of shit regardless but yeah that bit gave infinite ammo to racists like my dad. And let's be real, my dad hates black people, period, but he dresses it up in acceptable racism of "oh I just hate hip-hop thugs."
