      I’m guessing this means that, in your experience, white (or only cis white?) people shit-talk each other behind each others’ backs more than other racial groups do?

        I’m a straight, white and middle aged person and its crazy how many other people of the same demographic just assume we share their bigoted fucking views. Perfect strangers dont even feel you out before talking about whichever “them” they are bothered about. Its shockingly common.

        Like the other reply said, any minority is liable to be shit talked about. Recently I’ve been subjected to a lot of second hand homophobia at work (I haven’t fully come out yet)

          I have not experienced this, but I wouldn’t associate with people who speak that way or treat others that way.
