Real talk, every time I go home, my parents throw the word around everywhere (In their home. They suck, but aren't stupid). They justify it by saying "it's just a trashy person of any color". So I tell them to go ahead use it in public to see what the response is. I still don't think they've tried it. At least not in any circles that will get them in an ass whooping situation

"There's no right to free speech anymore. Damn wokeism."

Father in-law was throwing it around like it was nothing last Thanksgiving and we haven't been over since.

I don't play that shit.

Every time he used it, "I'm not racist" was said soon after. Sure Dan-o, interesting word choice considering.

the venn diagram of people who say "I'm not racist" and actual racists is a circle

That's a fantastic response/challenge.

Essentially: put your money where your mouth is.

Narrator: they didn't.

they aren't stupid

They are stupid as fuck. Your rich ass parents are racist idiots.

They aren't rich. And tone it down

I will not. Your parents are racist idiots. You are rewarding them with a visit. So they put money directly in your account or do they press cash into your palm?

Now then: People have different definitions of rich/middle class. Depending on the person, let's use me as an example. I will buy a house with a loan soon. I'm not even close to middle class. In fact I think our parents were the last of the middle class.

How exactly did you get to this from ‘visiting parents’?

Are you that transactional?

Dude, chill the fuck out. You are directing a weird level of anger at SOMEONE ELSE'S PARENTS. Calm your ass down.
