Just got into a stupid argument with my friends over the concept

It gets even better. They acted like i'm the only one that has ever said anything racist, even if it was jokingly. Hell, we call each other "nigger" as a joke. I used to call random people on the internet "niggers", regardless of what race they are. It's basically shock value. Most of the jokes I say nowadays are fucking /pol/ memes for fucks sake.

My 10 year old brother is even black. Now I know this is a cliche thing to say, but how could I be the racist they make me out to be even though I have a black brother that I care for? I acknowledged to them that I toned down on the racism but they say otherwise based off of nothing.

After I pointed this out to them, they just stopped talking. One of them said something sparky like "denial + white privilege = it can only get you to so many places". I haven't denied a thing and the white privilege comment seemed out of place.

Purely based on what you're telling us, they seem in the wrong. Sounds like they've been taken in by a tumblr mindset desu. Are they all black?

No, one of them in Mexican whom I frequently talk to more and we make racist jokes a lot. The other one is white, but over time he turned very liberal. Though he used to make racist jokes with us as well.

>Are they all black?

You ruined your reputation with them. They look down on you now.

Truth is, they aren't that good of friends if they can't accept that people do change their views. My best buddy was a skin head in his teens (hammerskins, not punk rock skin head) and the shit he said and did would make you seem like an angel in comparison. Younger him would probably make /pol/ uncomfortable with how hard core he was but he changed. He's a completely different person now and we don't hold that shit against him.

If you've really made an effort to change and your friends still give you shit it's likely they are just passive aggressive he bitches judging you to be assholes.

Always remember though, reputation is a very important thing. Even if you believe the racist things you say, think long and hard before saying that shit out loud.

Honestly i've had arguments with them that are worse than this. We end up getting along again after a week or so. It just really bugged me how they acted like they never made racist jokes the same way I do, when they did and one of them still do. Just because I did it more extreme at some times doesn't negate the fact that they were jokes.

By the way these friends I only know and met through the internet. We've known each other for about 4+ years, never seen each other in person. I even tell them people that know me IRL will say i'm much different than I am on the internet, but they seem to act like they know my personality more.

Oh they are Internet friends, shit tell them they are being pussies and you got better shit to do bro.

Seriously though, don't let these idiots treat you like shit especially if what they are saying doesn't apply to you anymore. They sound like assholes.
