      It’s like that movie Crash, racist cops don’t mean to be racist, they just need a personal tragedy to help them overcome their previous bigotry

      Just like how Sandra Bullock found out her real friend was her maid the whole time

                Not just not shamed, it won the Oscar for Best Picture lmao

                Crash as a whole was a libshit “we’re all humans man, we’re more similar than we are different, and that means I can be racist” kind of thing, it’s really really bad in a way that’s honestly pretty illuminating when you consider how liberal hollywood LOVED it

                  Jesus I remember the phase of liberalism in hollywood in which it started with the “everyone’s a little bit racist and that’s okay” and then also went into the “better to not see someone by their color” colorblindness propaganda shit.

          We were shown that movie, with that scene in full, in high school and frankly I memory holed that so hard I had to double check to make sure it was the right scene I was thinking about. I don’t even remember the tertiary reason we started watching it back then and I don’t remember any of the plot, but that scene has stood out to me for well over a decade.
