Why are some people so desperate to be racist?
I’ve gone from trying to avoid racists, to ignoring them, to now finding them fascinating. Watching them jump through hoops trying to inflict hate whilst trying to position themselves as the good guy is interesting.
One thing that’s always interested me about them is why they try so hard to be racist. It’s a passion and a hobby for some people and I fully believe this. Some people are racist because they find it fun.
The obsession
Some racists are obsessed with the races that they hate, obsessed to the point that they dedicate a huge part of their lives to them. I’ve had people admit to doing research about black people so they could learn more racist words.
They dig into the history of the people that they hate so they can learn more about them. It’s easier to inflict pain on someone when you have a mountain of knowledge on them.
It’s like in rap beefs. If an unknown rapper is in a beef with a well-known rapper they have the advantage. They know a lot more about this person than they do about them, meaning they have lots of things to say whilst the other person can’t say anything.
