Reply to comment by awesomark in How is "You People" not getting backlash for being extremely racist? by kirill_da_thrill

.....which is exactly the point. OP is saying that the "issue" of interracial marriage is a solved problem. The commenter you are responding to is calling them naive for thinking that interracial marriage is universally respected and no longer a subject of debate.

in the setting of the movie (Los Angeles) it is not a subject of social debate. Are there some people there against it? For sure. But it's not a subject of social debate. If you sit at a table with 10 average people from the city, odds are that you won't have much agreement if you tell them you are against your black daughter marrying a white dude.

What people believe and what they are willing to admit--even anonymously--are two very different things.

well what peiple believe anonymously is none of our fucking concern is it?

i'm just saying socially speaking (not even legally speaking) interacial marriage is not up for debate in the US, even less in Los Angeles. Are some american, los angeles families strongly against it? sure!

i was just poiting out that reacting to your white best friend DATING a black girl the way Mo did in the movie was fuking nuts
