I Do Not Understand Racist People

My mom is getting racist, as she ages.

When I was a kid, she taught my brother and me to never judge a person by their race or nationality, to treat others as we want to be treated. But now?

All she does is complain about "Mexicans". Her racism seems focused on Hispanics, I guess because recently more and more Hispanic people have moved into her neighborhood lately. Yesterday she said she could hear their "loud thumping music" from next door, and she called it "disgusting". Then a week ago, we were talking about the city we are both moving to later this year, and she asked me "Are there a lot of Mexicans there?"

I'm so tired of hearing these comments, but I also don't want to argue with her all the time. I try to just ignore her comments and change the subject, but it bothers me that she has started thinking this way. :(

It's full of illegal Mexicans where I live and it has become an issue! They don't want citizenship because then they would have to obey the law! They drink and drive with no insurance and cause others grief! My friends dad was killed by a drunk illegal Mexican, and all the system did was send him to immigration! He lived here for 12 years illegally! Another friend of mine was killed by a Mexican who was also driving drunk and was not a legal citizen! Where did he go? To immigration! Build the wall.

The real bigots are democrats! They started the KKK and tried to keep slavery for black people!

@13sorento you uneducated fool. Go read a history book and you will see how the Republicans and Democrats practically traded policies around the time of the Great Depression. Republicans ARE the bigots in our current climate.

Republicans abolished slavery! The dems wanted to keep it!

There is obviously more bigotry on your behave than me! I never called anyone a name!
@13sorento Yes but you are an idiot.

@13sorento calling some Hispanophobic asshole an idiot is now suddenly bigotry?
DearAmbellina2113 · 41-45, F
@13sorento no you just went on a tirade about how those durned illegals killed your friends. Like a white person never got drunk and got behind the wheel. And if you care to educate yourself, you'll see that going to an immigration center is way worse than going to a jail!!! You're ignorant.
