So, my family is racist.
Its far too common that I hear "Fucking hindus" or "Chinese can't drive" or some other stupid STUPID thing that comes out of their mouths.
I've talked to them a couple of times saying "this is not ok" and "you guys should stop doing that" and other things but they always have stupid excuses.
Either they "are not racist and just telling it like it is" or " just stating their opinion" or "i'm just stressed and tired" or some other BULLSHIT!
Hell, my dad is even worse since he's pretty much an misanthrope. (he also has a liquor problem).
if i speak out about it i either "have an attitude problem" or get an earful from my homophobic racist brother about how "you shouldn't judge them and only keep yourself in check" and if i ever EVER actually win the argument they always retort with "WELL MAYBE YOU SHOULD GET A JOB" as if that has anything to do with the situation (I swear to god that is their go to when they lose fights with me. Fucking pisses me off)
GOD. How do you deal with such people GAF? I would love to leave and move far far away but that's really an option right now.
Annoys me to no end.
honestly I'm just making this thread because I just got chewed out by my brother for being visibly angry at my dad for making an angry remark at "hindus" while waiting for a taxi. We have company right now. God I really do hate my brother sometimes (the other times i just dislike him)
Edit: THE ABSOLUTE WORST is when they say "When you get out and actually experience the world, you will understand that we are right in saying what we say" Which is the HIGHEST level of Bullshit!
