True, I don't know how these people were raised. I still get along fine with them but now I know where they stand on certain things and they know I'm not in agreeance with them.

So what, seriously?

Unless they are acting out on their supposed racism or homophobia, who cares what they think? Despite popular belief, most people around the world have some degree of racist and homophobic beliefs. That is called basic human nature. This only becomes something worth taking action on if it stops being just thoughts or opinions and actually enters the real world. You can't control what people think or feel.

Wasn't necessarily a shock. I knew people like that exist, but expressing racism and homophobia online is one thing. The misc is for the most part, anonymous. Hearing people talking about in person is another thing and can become a more uncomfortable situation.

Not calling them out on anything. I'm aware the misc has a large number of people who are very passionate about being super right wing, pro racism and pro homophobia. My motto is live and let live. Didn't actually make this thread to start a battle with people here but some people did take it that way.

Agree though that LA is beautiful.

How is that rationalization? Humans are by design tribalistic; hence why you unconditionally care more about your family and friends than you do the random stranger down the street, and on a bigger level why you care more about people "LIKE YOU" than you do outsiders. "Racism" has been alive at every point in human history, regardless of who it was directed towards or what angle it came from. Considering this truth, you must then understand that this is therefore a human condition, it isn't a human invention that someone simply suggested.

Homosexuality is a perversion of natural biology; hence why there is strong natural animosity against it. It is weird and most people don't understand it, why would they? Sorry, but that is just how it goes. Given enough exposure, most people who are "homophobic" simply stop caring, which is all you can ask for out of someone. Believe it or not, very few humans are "morally just" on every single issue.

One of my friends (Vietnamese FOB) attended Colorado State, got in relationship with a 41 yo black guy, an army officer (he was an ex Ranger). He wants to marry her but her family back home said no cuz he's black. (I'm sure they wouldn't say no if he was white). SMH @ how racist some people are.

Agreed. If people want to be racist, homophobic or whatever, that's fine but they should keep it to themselves in a work environment. One of the guys was a supervisor too, though he's still new at supervising and inexperienced.

Of course this might not lead to being hung from a tree, but it still gets annoying just picking up on the subtleties of their disdain.

Hell how many guys here have that same complaint regarding women, simply cause they're men, apply that same logic except instead of gender use race.
I don't even see the issue with this, so somebody doesn't like you because of your race. Would you really want to be around somebody who judged people because they're black/white/etc? If anything this being known just lets you know that you need not waste time on the person.

So long as it doesn't lead to issues regarding employment/promotions/usability of facilities/etc I don't see the issue.

I had a brown manager at my old job, and he was racist as ****. He use to say "man i hate white people", and **** like that. Then he would say like "I guess I shouldn't say that", but he would make racist remarks towards white people again a few days later. Was only there for like 3 months, and I don't really let verbal **** phase me, but I find it funny how people have no problem openly being racist against white people.

Imagine if I said "man I hate black people" out in the open in a workplace lmao. He was the only non-white person in our department too.

Sure, and that's when you treat them like every other person who dislikes you. You be courteous, and only deal with them when necessary. If it's your boss then I'd probably start looking for another job.

The fact that you're being sarcastic about those traits in reference to OP being non-accepting of his co-workers racism/homophobia shows the reality of the right wing politics in this country lmao. There's a reason why all the racists, homophobes, and ethnocentric retards are right-wing. I guarantee your left nut OP's co-workers voted Trump.

If it's your boss and it's directly affecting your work environment, I'd probably report it. Also, you don't always need to be courteous to people like that. Depends on the situation.

One did, and actually has a photo of Trump on his desk lol. I don't buy into this idea that you need to be tolerant of racists and homophobes. You should be to a certain extent but if someone in your work environment is consistently showing traits of racist/homophobic behavior, you have the right to call them out about it.
