 I’d love to be proven wrong, please prove me wrong, but I live in missouri dawg, I grew up being called the most racist shit, and it wasn’t from people on the left. I think acting as if both sides don’t hate America in their own ways, is hypocritical. 
 I know, I'm from the same place. But you're putting your anecdotal evidence above reality. Reality is, slavery and discrimination on race is illegal in Missouri and there are no policies introduced to end either one. Just cuz you met some racist folks in your life doesn't mean the entire half of the country hates blacks. I litterally got married to a black woman this weekend and the entire wedding party on my side is Republicans and all of them love my wife and have no intention to end her freedom so unless you can give a more concrete example that shows Republicans hate black people then you're just gunna have random anecdotes that I can meet with my own showing the opposite.
