In reply to the discussion: #NotRacists Be Like: The Top 10 Phrases Used by People Who Claim They Are Not Racist [View all]Xipe Totec
(43,889 posts)45. Here's the problem I see with this logic
If you've dated a black person and you mention it then you're racist.
If you've dated a black person and you hide it, then you're embarrassed, so you're racists.
If you've thought of dating a black person but didn't do it, you're a racist.
If you would never consider dating a black person then you're a racist.
Seems like a no win.
