He's most likely petty bourgeois or a vet or something. If he has a white (female) partner and is living in a white majority neighborhood, then he's definitely a certain type of Black person.

It's not that unusual. Like, Black people aren't a monolith who can recite Malcolm X or Kwame Ture speeches from memory. There are plenty of politically misinformed, self-interested, or mentally colonized individuals just like every other marginalized community.
