You'll have to forgive me if I don't find a guy from white rural Christian America's claim that white rural Christians don't have a problem with racism very compelling. In addition to ranting about welfare queens, my mom is quite happy to assert that she "doesn't see color" and she "doesn't have a racist bone in her body". Racists will never admit to being racist. You also completely fail to address the actual data showing the correlation between conservative beliefs and racism. I guess all the scientists who study race and politics, and all of the people of color I interact with are in the same bubble as me. Meanwhile in centrist land, you're both bubble and data free.

> Numerous studies suggest that political conservatism significantly correlates with modern racist attitudes. The current findings are consistent with previous studies.
