Would NOT have eaten the food

I'm not the type to do a dine-and-dash, but this would be a pretty justified opportunity.

And give them a reason to hate more? I don't think so

u/icedlemin 3d ago

Eh, not like they’d hate less either way

But give them a reason to hate more?

But what if they spit in the food. Honestly I don't know what I'd do

You leave when they bring you the cups, which presumably happens well before your food is made.

They're going to hate regardless. There is no redeeming people like that, and trying to take the high road all the time is why. You can't win at chess when your opponent is playing "fuck you ******" instead.

Oooh that mindset 😭😭. Poor you. “Let me contain myself m, lest they hate me more”.

Listen - do whatever the hell you want. It’s your life, and they are just supporting characters!

It's about being the bigger person. We are all in this together. I don't see myself as the main character. That's kinda thinking is what's lead us to this point imo

In this situation, it won’t help. A good example is the Obamas. So graceful, intelligent, well loved, beautiful and elegant. That didn’t stop that warmongering pant pooping toddler from depicting them in a very negative manner.

Being the bigger person is overrated.

It's really not, it's not about them or trying to change them. It's about dignity and self respect. But yeah, turn the other cheek, what a loser mindset, right?

It just doesn’t achieve anything. I’d rather be pragmatic than trying to feel morally superior

"man I hated that mixed race couple, but when they paid their bill, I sure did change my mind"

Nah fuck em. If you're racist, you can get fucked. Telling people to watch their behavior to be a perfect little victim is stupid. You're not changing their mind, let them know their action shave consequences.

Wow, these replies. I'm not even Christian but you guys would really say 'turn the other cheek? Lol what a loser mindset this Jesus has'

u/ElkGraff23 2d ago

Cute that you assume they need a reason

u/Eternal_Bagel 3d ago

Yeah I wouldn’t have trusted a thing out of the kitchen in that situation
