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.
sand-nwords? What would that be? A slur for the nomads of the Saharra? Bedouines?
This was a derogatory term for middle easterners that cropped up (to my awareness, anyway, and I don't care to go searching around to fact check myself on this point) in the xenophobia following 9/11.
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.
