Tonight the Oscars (was it the Oscars? who cares?) were on. Not that I wanted to watch it, but my mother wanted some background chatter on the TV playing while she did stuff. I don't know what exactly. I think it was watching cat videos on Facebok or something.
I happened to glance at the screen while eating, and I saw a jew with his big nose speaking to the interviewer. I pointed that out to my mother. She said that's not right of me to do. She said that people do that to Asians all the time, that they make fun of our slanted eyes, and that it isn't right. She went on to talk about how it doesn't matter what they look like, that we can't judge people based on stereotypes like that, and that what really matters is what is in each person's heart. I shook my head, saying "not those people" but didn't explain further. There was much I wanted to say to her, but I knew that it wouldn't be worth the effort to bother talking about this with my mother, since (1) she doesn't understand English well and English is 99% of what I speak, both at home and outside, and (2) she is getting old and doesn't care about these kinds of things.
Anyways, I refrained from going into it. A few minutes later (5 minutes, I think) when discussing about how I was planning to come home from school next weekend, I told her that I will take the bus home. She told me that I should leave in the morning, since it will not be as crowded. I tell her no, since I am a heavy sleeper and will probably not wake up on time. Then, as I guessed, she tells me her real reason: it's "dangerous" to go home at night. I was already quite sure of what this danger could consist of, and she confirmed it for me: "There's a lot of black people on the bus, right?"
I probably messed up in even pointing out the jew to my mother who didn't care about these things. Nevertheless, I got to see a personal example of the cognitive dissonance many people harbor about stereotypes and reality versus the commie crap and equality that (((they))) push onto us. I didn't even realize that there was a doublethink moment until I sat down in front of my computer 10 minutes ago.

Be happy she’s at least woken to the nature of blacks. Most people have no idea what’s up with the Jews. They are a tiny part of the population and work by covert means. Unless one really goes looking for information on Jews, one tends to believe they are just white people with an archaic version of Christianity.
And the fact that she understands blacks means she has great potential to comprehend the Jew if you felt like trying to teach her. Everywhere you look it’s clearly blacks breaking into cars and shooting people. You can’t look (without the prior knowledge) and comprehend the works of the Jew as easy as blacks.
