    If someone gets drunk and calls me a slur, I’m going to believe that even when they’re sober and acting polite they’re inwardly thinking that slur about me. That is enough to make them someone I’m not going to be inclined to trust.

      Yeah ok fine this is a pretty contentious point and you make the other side well. I was thinking more ‘being aggressive’ and such rather than ‘revealing bigotism’.
