Ask Not What the Alibi Buddy Says About You! Asymp; 6 Comments. We’ve all heard about the alibi buddy. He’s that gay guy whose best friends with the man telling you he’s against gay rights. He’s also the black guy who hangs out with the fellow bashing African-Americans. He’s the Muslim who totally agrees with all of someone’s generalizations about Muslims, Arabs, and even Sikhs, cause that’s close enough, right? Alibi buddy would probably tell us that if he were here.). Where does he live? But it’s...

These are his words on the subject:. What this rhetoric A...
