My dad used to be all sorts of bigoted, he was literally raised in a cult, and now hes one of the smartest and kindest people i know and supports his students by running clubs for poc an lgbtq+ and is involved in theater, i hate when people blame their upbringing because if he can do it anybody can

Is it wrong to recognize behavioral patterns?

not at all. you’re entitled to your own beliefs . every group has their own behavioral pattern/stereotype tho if you want to be technical

what’s racism to you? racism by definition is discrimination towards someone. so if you choose not to be friends with a random black person bc you •think• they’re a criminal ya, that’s racism

and no i don’t but there’s also a appropriate way to call behaviors out, black ppl got a lot of issues in our community that need to be fixed and we’re not oblivious to that

literally. i wa raised to be homophobic and not in a *i can’t be friends with you bc you’re gay* way but in a quiet, “i think that’s wrong way” regardless it’s 2026 and there’s education EVERYWHERE. no reason to be a bigot in the big 26
