I'm white. Do you ever just get sick of white people?

67. Even in our semirural blood-red GA county, about 30% vote Democratic

(local and congressional races are our version of the south's "lost cause" ).

Of course we can find nice white people who feel as we do. And we also have friends who are lifelong conservative Republicans and do not agree with us on political issues -- but are genuine friends nonetheless. (They're very different stuff from those conservatives who in these mean days refuse to be friends -- a basic divide.)

Those who can't find decent people to associate with should look for them where they gather. Don't make the terrible mistake of choosing by skin color, and rejecting people because they're white, or something else -- choose by "liberality of ideas" as Jane Austen's Anne Elliot put it.

Go find a group doing something decent that decent people of any type believe should be done. Decent people will be there, including from the local "30%" or whatever it is of liberals. Or just join a generally liberal group, such as the local Democratic Party. Predominant color will reflect local demographics, not some unfortunate notions of racial superiority and inferiority.
