That has got to be a super weird trip. I’m half Jewish and half hillbilly… and I can tell you it’s weird af. I’m 100% pure bred mentally ill obviously.
Other than the fact that people never believe me until I show evidence, it’s not too bad. I am definitely living my life as a white person so I can’t really say I know what it’s like to be mixed race or anything like that. I have red hair and a light complexion.

Just that right there is super weird. How many times have people said something super duper racist around you assuming that you’d be ‘on their team’? It’s happened to me quite a few times, and it was weird when I stopped being that way myself at like 20 and I don’t have that context. Actually if I had spoken up and made a problem of it I probably wouldn’t have made it where I am as I think about it.
Matt here as well

This is what allows the ruling class to exploit people. If we don’t have the time or energy to fight back, then it’s construed to mean consent.

Yea, white people love throwing out little/big racist feelers assuming you’re “one of them.” I never know what to do other than kind of mutter “that’s super racist” and walk away.
Like the biggest strat is to just ask feign ignorance and ask questions like “what do you mean by that?” For instance, an ex coworker was saying super racist stuff in a group chat about how “they” speak and I tried the line of feigning ignorance and being like “i dont understand, my dad didnt talk that way, how is that?” but then that sometimes just begets more racist nonsense because they think you earnestly are in the dark so I don’t really think i’ve figured out the best way to handle it yet.

I was in a 30 person art class with 4 of us once. I’m not surprised in the slightest. Now let’s do Chris. There’s gotta be 3-5 of you people in here too. Here’s to our parents for being unimaginative and basic. My middle name of course is where it becomes slightly more obvious that my parents were weird.
No I’m not telling, people knowing my name is Matt is one of the least useful strings to matching me to my identity… my middle name doxxes me instantly.

I saw your chatter in the other thread about your partner being some female variant on Chris.
My name is Chris, my girlfriend’s name is Christine, and her ex husband’s name is also Chris.

GF’s parents call her “Chris”. Couple of her friends call her “teen”. My friends sometimes call her “Good Chris”.

When I said you could go by ‘the first name’s’ I didn’t realize the name was Chris. You’re not even the only people on this website in this spot. I’m really glad Matthewina wasn’t a popular girls name all of a sudden.
