Yeah apparently being white and having a beard with a hint of unfortunate RBF is enough to signal racist around here. The toughest part is when it's coming from your professional superiors.

Yes, white male here. I can't tell you how many times I end up alone with some stranger, who looks at me, and decides "yeah, this guy is cool with me being openly racist". Don't have a beard, no tatts, nothing on my person that would indicate any political/social position, so I guess being a white dude is enough.
