Just because a liberal hates Trump doesn’t mean they should bring out the microaggressions and say that someone isn’t “black enough” Edit: As a WOC, how do you personally feel about a POC supporting any politician, not just Trump, that has exhibited racist behavior in the past? I know that as a gay person, I cannot understand why a queer person would ever support Trump - purely because of Pence. What are your thoughts on this among POC? @LilyLark Honestly, I believe 99% of white people are either racist or have had a racist moment or occasionally say racist or borderline racist things. That said, there are degrees of racism & there's also context. I don't expect a 75+ year old white politician to be as sensitive or have a non racist past as I would with a 30 year old white politician....although I expect the older politician to be more aware now and any racist past better not be like...Trump level racist... if I'm going to support them. Ideally, I want someone as non racist as possible but realistically I have to acknowledge that even some white pols I admire (like Warren, Bernie, Sherrod Brown) have had their racist moments. I could never, ever support any Republican though due to the intense degree of racism that surrounds the party and I don't see how POC and/or LGBTQ can support Pence.
