    Sometimes, yeah.

    But I've been to plenty of rural areas that have great Mexican restaurants and Hmong restaurants but most of the white people there preferred to eat at an Arby's. Some of those white people were friends and they simultaneously acted like they didn't even know those restaurants existed and as if it were somehow risky to go there.

    I'm sure that is related but as my friends were "progressive" Democrats we might need to use a wider definition of what it means to be right wing. Plenty of "progressive" white people still have racist hangups.

    Some of them think they aren't racist when they see the world as a series of tourist attractions and try to flex on their dinner guests by bragging about the authentic exotic experiences they had with authentic foreign people while wandering into tourist traps. maybe-later-honey us-foreign-policy
