It's really not that hard.
And it shows you how many fucking awful mean people there are in the world.
And this administration has given everybody a free license.
A free license to act this way.
I do want to point out, and this reminded me when you said this, that if you'll remember, we were in a group meet for our youngest son's basketball team, and they would have prayers before the games in the group meet.
praying for the players and you know we would go out and get our ass kicked by 20 or 30 points by a team and i think everybody said the prayers in the group but we would just get the shit kicked out of us josh would say i want to follow up and go hey we didn't show up for the prayer thing but it doesn't look like it's working they just got their ass beat
So I just would always be like, man, if we only said two or three more prayers maybe or four or five more prayers, then somehow we're more special than the other kids and we're going to get what we need.
But that would require you to, number one, be curious, openly curious about other people's cultures that's different than yours, to be somewhat open-minded.
I think that the past four years or six, eight years, 10 years, however long Trump's been with us, I definitely think you've seen this more
Out in the open style of racism, just blatant racism.
And the only thing we talk about this a lot on this program, at least since since I've been here this week.
And the only thing that we can do is we have a responsibility, number one, to call it out and recognize it.
And then number two, to let other people know that, hey, we're not all like that, like we're not.
And it's something that we take very serious.
