One of my friends made that point.
I don't think it's the same.
A couple can have different views or tastes with many things that are ok in today's society and I understand that. Whether it's political, religious, sports teams or something else it doesn't matter.
What makes this situation different is it's about being racist.
If you understand what racism is and you know that it is wrong, how can a person be in the right when they condone it.
A better comparison would be a father molesting his children with the mother knowing about it but not doing anything saying that's his thing and I don't have anything to do with it. Of course that situation would be more serious because there are victims involved but I think it's more like that than just two people having different views.
