He is a racist though. Right in the beginning of the game he grumbles about having to bunk with "Bill Williamson and a bunch of darkies." He also has camp interactions with every non-white gang member where he antagonises each of them by saying something racist but he's still not as horrible as you'd expect.
Micah is such a cartoonishly massive asshole it contrasts wildly with all the other gang members who are all pretty well-rounded characters and makes you wonder why someone hasn't shot him in the back and left him in a ditch already
he is but the entire fact he calls them darkies instead of n-words kind of proves my point. I mean like what, the misanthropic serial killer has objections to saying the N-Word on some sort of moral ground?
Yeah, like I said, you definitely get the feeling Rockstar didn't want to put full-fat 1800's racism into their game
