yeah i dated a woman who was a Art professor at a liberal arts school. She was native Korean. I stupidly assumed she was liberal and progressive...
She was incredibly fucking racist. She would talk about how all asian men should be rounded up and shot. She hated black and hispanic people.
She was a white supremacist. Straight up told me how she loved how tall and pale my skin was. And how much she loved asian/white people because they had so much moeny and the other races were all poor pieces of shit. It was creepy as fuck.
Broke up with a few days later. She also threatened to beat the shit out of me when i broke up with her and I basically had to threaten her with violence... that shut her up real fast.
a lot of people we assume are not racist and ignorant... are deeply racist and ignorance. they just understand they can't be public about it without ruining their careers. i've also dated other so called 'progressive' women who were racist as fuck towards black/brown people, but not of the white supremacist variety. most the 'those people are scary' variety. but they saw nothing wrong with their own fear/hate of minorities in their personal life, as long as they lectured other people about how oppressed they were. it was so weird.
