When someone starts with I'm not racist it usually means they are. (lemm.ee)

Edit: here's my thought process. Why do they need to tell someone they are not. Then proceed to say the most racist thing, lmao.

Sometimes if I really want to get someone’s attention, I’ll start a sentence with something like, “I’m not racist, but…”

I say, “I’m not racist, but you look great today.” They say, “That wasn’t racist at all.” I said, “I know. I said I’m not racist. You never listen. Typical Mexican.” ~ Demetri Martin
