Serious question.. as a non racist, does it take a lot of energy to be racist? I'm asking honestly as I am considering becoming racist but I'm lazy and don't want to expend a lot of energy.
I don't have a great answer to that question. Some people come by it naturally. Some evolve. Others like me, just like to make jokes. In this case, "eyeing the cash tip" can go one of two ways.
1. They are planning on stealing it because that's just what comes naturally to black folk.

2. They are curious as to why people are putting money on the table for the server. As in black folk don't tip.

Both jokes on my end but I'd be lying if I didn't acknowledge that lack of tipping/proper tipping is a serious issue among the black community.
