It's funny because these are the same people who will say white privilege isn't real

Or that racism ended when Obama was elected

100%. They've eaten the propaganda and haven't learned to listen. And when confronted with the truth there's only two options: grow and develop (that's what a lot of people these days did) or double down on the lies. There's nothing worse in this worldview than admitting to being wrong because that's a form of weakness. Admitting to being wrong is worse than being wrong. So somewhere inside them, they push down the truth because doing so would be worse than admitting they were mistaken
