I sit on the fence as far as politics is concerned and dislike both the left, extreme left, the right and the extreme right. I just tell people to their faces, that way everything is all out in the open. I told some black guy at work that I respected his work, but I disliked him as a person, he was shocked, but at the end of the day, relations got better after that because he has always worked with hypocrites. I still keep in touch with him on FB too.
Who said I don't speak up to people? I actually called out my own father-in-law at work, who is also my boss, and another boss for saying racist shit. But please, do continue making assumptions. That seems to be a running theme with you.
And LMAO at that awesome "I get along with a black guy at work" story. It's like you're determined to check all of the boxes on the typical racist checklist.
