Hey everybody. It’s old Bob here, writing a blog entry for the first time in about six weeks. I’ve had a lot going on, but I’m thinking I ought to spend more time blogging, and maybe less time on other social media.
I’m a little peeved at some old friends. For a long time, his racism was a subtext. It was there, but he wasn’t overt. Wasn’t. Past tense. Now it seems that the racism is center stage. It’s not like he’s putting on KKK robes and burning crosses in folks yards. It’s more of the snarky, Trumpian racism, that sense of white privilege and entitlement that folks can get growing up middle-class in the middle of America, where a guy can likely count on one or two hands the number of minority classmates he has in his school.
He has disappointed me, and he really doesn’t give a shit.
I don’t need racist friends.
Nobody needs racist friends, or racism, for that matter.
It kind of pisses me off. Seriously. Guys I hung out with for years, and thought were the coolest of the cool, and then you start looking at them with a little more scrutiny, and the shine comes off pretty quick.
Well, that’s what we do. We live and learn.

I’ve been told I ask the wrong questions before. Doesn’t mean there’s no value in the answer. What’s wrong with saying, “Hey, white America, are you more comfortable with a President that looks more like you?”?
I guess he didn’t like the question.
Or maybe he didn’t like the reality of his answer.

I’m thinking that I’d rather post my response to Facebook posts here rather than on Facebook. I’d hate to cause some of the conservative FB snowflakes to have a meltdown.
