This is the continuation too:

This is so cartoonishly racist it’s literally the kind of thing I’d expect in a sitcom.

This cannot be real. People go to school just to try to learn to write dialog this tight.

This is so stupid and even stupider that this moron is now, somehow, becoming more accepting even if he still fundamentally retains that racism. People can change after major health events and I guess I’m glad the person in the story is taking a step towards being better even if it’s for the dumbest reason imaginable.

I have had parents ask (me) if we can assure the blood we’re giving their kid is from white people. Which… no, we dont take down that data. The kid either gets this blood or they keep getting sicker. Wanna risk your kids life on your racism??? It’s the same fucking blood. Since there’s a donor shortage where I live, we end up importing blood from the US from paid donors. Who inevitably are black and brown because it’s usually poor people who do that for survival and black and brown people are disproportionately poor. So that kid with racist parents probably IS gonna get life saving blood extracted at the proverbial knife’s edge of capitalist immiseration from the very people the parents are racist against

I think what’s crazy is reading the really saddening paragraph by the black kid’s mother and you can feel the love in it, only to get one heck of a gut punch with the disgusting racism that comes after.

When you forget the mother’s painful paragraph, the white pair’s racism is ludicrously comical; but this was an awesome kid who lost his life and the recipient is a repulsive racist.

He actually asked me if he could ask the doctor for a white heart when one came up. He’s no Archie Bunker, but he’s close to it. And he would kill me if he knew I told you this, but for the first time, he’s invited his black friends over from work.

Nope. There’s no chance this isn’t a comedy bit. Lmao wtf

Every damn time “I’m not racist but…” is code for “I’m very racist and…”

I’m not racist, but turn #4 at Daytona Speedway is really fucking dangerous if there’s a wreck, primarily because it’s a blind exit so you can’t see if there’s a wreck in front of you (or even line of cars slowed down due to a red flag) when you come hurtling out at full throttle.

Also, I’m not a racist, but the film Days of Thunder is actually less funny than the actual reality – “Cole Trickle” is loosely based on the name of Wisconsin Rapids native “Dick Trickle,” who was a NASCAR mainstay through much of the 80s and 90s.

Also also, I’m not a racist, but Dick Trickle won the Cracker 200 in 1985.

Edit: My ex-stepdad was a hardcore racist. Track days and hard-R N-words.
