The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Amd yet, the most virulently racist people I know I’ve ever met are left wingers. They just can’t process when minorities don’t do what they’re told.

I've met very few racists, or at least none that were overt. One person I knew hid it very well, but let slip once that "mixed marriages shouldn't be allowed because of the children". She was hard-core Republican, and religious. She couched it in "think of the children", but it was straight-up racism.

We could anecdote all day, but it's better to look at statistics. They are somewhat difficult to come by, but KFF and some others do have some data (which I quoted in a reply in the other thread).
