I guess we're all a little racist.
Cope. Racists simply can't imagine that being a hateful bigot makes them a bad person- so they HAVE to pretend that everyone feels that way but we just keep it quiet.
I had a co-worker who insisted he wasn't racist, but he did hate 'Sand-Nwords'. He said "Everybody hates one group or another". He refused to believe that I hate literally no one in the world because of their race.

Yeah, this is straight up “I have a black friend” and citing the wealthy basketball payer as worthy is “You’re one of the good ones.”
Bet if questioned publicly he’d have said he’s not racist.

He tried to walk it back after facing the consequences- who knows if it was genuine or an attempt to salvage his reputation.
"Eight years ago I used offensive language during a conversation. It was unacceptable for me to have used that offensive language; there is no excuse for it; and I apologize for having done it. This is not who I am. I believe very strongly that every person in the world is important and should not be treated differently based on race, gender, orientation, religious beliefs or otherwise. I am disappointed with myself that I used language that is offensive and inconsistent with my own beliefs."

Sounds like a generic, well-edited apology that we hear far too often from people that usually don’t mean it.
-
For sure. I don't believe it was genuine personally.

Isn’t it so crazy how these people talking casually among their friends is never “who they are” but them walking it back via a publicist because it hurt them is who they actually are?
Just sooo crazy! And the one and only time they’re talking like “someone they’re not” someone happens to be recording it and it’s bad for their career! The world sure is a crazy place

sand-nwords? What would that be? A slur for the nomads of the Saharra? Bedouines?
-
Seems like it would be for anyone brown tbh. Y'no, cause racists think all brown people lve in the desert.
-
You're going to have to research that on your own. I didn't ask for clarification and I don't care to know what he meant tbh.
