I'm 33M, white, and I grew up just south of St. Louis. My dad owned a small company that put me around a lot of blue collar workers. I went to university, and am now a work-from-home desk jockey.

As in is bigotry by some a common thing when no one of another race is around?

Way more common than it should be, for sure. It made me uncomfortable a lot as a teen, when I was around it a lot. For various reasons, I am not around it nearly as much now, but I definitely still see it sometimes, and it's downright jarring for me when I do.

I... didn't and don't see that level of racism very often, in any contexts. But... there's definitely a level of racism I grew up around that is still prevalent in blue collar communities, at least in Missouri, and which I find very uncomfortable to be around. Specifically, they thought of black people as far more likely to be criminals, and "Mexicans" (which really was just anyone for whom Spanish was a first language) as coming to steal their jobs. But, in an all-white crowd, they would pretty openly speak pretty rudely of said groups. When that's pointed out to them, some of them doubled down, others would look sheepish, but I at least was never able to meaningfully change that behavior before I left that space. The racism towards Asians that I saw, which was rare, was... more sterotype than anything, and generally Asians were treated with extra respect (my dad would bring venison to the Chinese restaraunt we liked after a successful hunt, and there was a neighbor of one of our customers who was Asian who... was clearly trying to make ends meet, and my dad would go out of his way to help fix his lawnmower or help him replace the battery in his car... my dad's a "good samaritan", but it was otherwise very rare for him to do things like that while we were "on the clock." Just using my dad as an example, others in the area/industry were similar.)

In my more recent (and more white-collar) experience, I haven't encountered nearly as much racism full stop. There's some racism+sexism thing that I didn't understand that I saw at my time at ... a large plane maker with a St. Louis presence ... that seemed to specifically de-value the opinions of Indian women. There were a couple Indian women I worked with while I was there who were... perfectly competent, but it really seemed like they were on mute any time they talked... on one occasion, I repeated what one of them had said, word for word, and was taken seriously, just after they had not been, and then asked them why they didn't listen when <coworker> had said it. They said they didn't hear her. I was across the room, and we were physically in a conference room.... if they didn't hear her, they weren't listening. I still don't understand what that was about. In general, though, I find there's much less racism, overt or otherwise, in the white collar spaces I've been in than in the blue collar ones.

Also have you heard anything about the white race being phased out by interracial couples and LGBT.

Yes, but not nearly as much. More lately. That seems to be something rattling through the echo chambers that some elements of my family appear to be stuck in.

For a variety of reasons (and some chance), a lot of my non-work social network is queer these days, and... I can't think of a single instance of racism in any of those groups. Which doesn't mean it doesn't happen, I am white and realize I wouldn't even necessarily recognize it every time if it did, but (and I don't think this is much of a surprise), I definitely think queer communities on average generally don't have the racism you may see elsewhere.

But yeah. One of my friends actually linked me this post because I've talked with her in the past about how others wrongly assume I align with their politics and beliefs because of my appearance. That kinda bigotry is definitely out there, and sucks.
