My best friend in the entire world is Jewish. He’s the most open handed guy I’ve ever met and I talk to him every single day. Not once in over a decade has he mentioned the over $10k I owe him.
My boss at my job is installing a turnstile to keep track of stolen time despite how the company owes literally all of us because the system isn’t tracking our lunch breaks properly and HR just brushes it under the rug. My boss installing the turnstile is a Jew.
Conveniently enough, our CEO and my best friend actually have the same exact name. No relation. Also my bestie doesn’t do the hair drills thing or the little hat.
You’re gonna probably think it’s weird that I have this magnificent example of my stance in pocket, but even if I made this up(and I didn’t), it’s still a good explanation of my point.
When you’re mouthing off to someone, it’s your goal to make them mad, and pointing out a stereotype that fits is a really really effective way to do that.

there is a huge gap between “making fun of” and “racist bullshit”.

Not really. It’s racism when he goes around putting them down without context that makes sense or discriminates with employment stuff and whatnot.

Lol, i said “i got mugged by n-words”, its racism. when the 4chan dude says “pajeets scam me”, its racism.
Mo matter how angry you are, if you use racial slurs, you’re kinda racist.
