Full Disclosure, I'm white.

I'm asking this question because the other day a family member mentioned that most of my close friends throughout my life weren't white. I have white friends for sure, but when I thought about it further they were right, my closest boys have typically been either black, Hispanic, or east indian (grew up in an urban area in the south). Thinking about it further, I concluded that the reason for this was that the worldview of minorities in America typically aligned with mine (some might call it "red pill") and figured that most the guys on here share that worldview, they would also have the similar experience with friends of other races. Also in my experience, non-white friends were much better friends in terms of loyalty, effort, and having my back than a lot of non-white friends growing up. Many of the white "friends" I had would try to make condescending and patronizing remarks when we were around women (I've talked before about the line between banter and disrespect when it comes to friendship), whereas my non-white friends would either talk me up or at the very least not try to actively undermine me. So that's been my experience, I'm interested to hear what others have to say.

I think I have spoken in my life 1 time with Black guy and few times with Indian, Mauri and Asian guys. I have seen many black guys in the streets or while travelling but never had the chance to make friends with them yet but I am open to that idea.

My friends don't wear makeup, and if they did, I doubt it would be racial.

That said, I keep Bob Fillissimille around because of his +2 racial bonus to Spot checks.

Not only are all of my friends white, but I also practise Phrenology (the science of analysing head shapes) in order to make sure that none of them are Irish or Slavic. Usually after I've met a guy a few times I'll get the callipers out and start taking head measurements.

My friends prefer blackface, but they've been known to dabble in yellowface from time to time.

All my friends are Aborigines. I don't hang out with people who have any ounce of privilege. And I've never even been to Australia I'm just that big of an ally to the ultra marginalized.

I'd say I have four friends I speak to on a regular basis whenever I need them to. 5, 2 black, 1 white, 1 mix white/jew and one mixed white/indian.

Per equality guidelines in the progressive manual, The racial makeup of my friends is exactly the same as the racial makeup of the United States

63% of my friends are white
17% of my friends are hispanic
13% of my friends are black
4% of my friends are asian
and the other 3% are mystery meat



Now I just need to inform my 5 friends of this
