* Christopher from ''Literature/{{Everworld}}'', who claims to be a homophobic, anti-semitic, racist redneck. Ends up befriending a gay god, a Jew, and an African American during the course of the story, but even before then he didn't really mean most of his comments and even after he bonds with his friends he still makes jokes of the "I swear I'm still a racist" variety.
** Also, [[spoiler:having his family terrorized by ''actual'' white supremacist misogynistic skinheads]] makes him realize that he's not as racist as he thought he was.

* ''Film/{{Dead Air|2009}'': Logan is forced to badmouth Muslims on the air by one of the terrorists, who are seeking to ignite a war between the western and Arab cultures through the attacks. His initial attempts at resistance and the revelation that his wife is, in fact, Muslim offer proof that he doesn't really mean what he's being forced to say.

* A Renegade Shepard can come across this way in ''VideoGame/MassEffect'', expressing borderline-bigoted "humans-first" views while staffing his or her ship with non-humans and even BoldlyComing should (s)he be so inclined. It's also impossible to complete the first game without ever including a non-human teammate on a mission, since [[spoiler: one of your two human teammates dies on Virmire]] and you must have [[ArbitraryHeadcountLimit two companions]] at all times.
* Reimu Hakurei, from the ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'' series, is a shrine maiden whose job is to exterminate Japanese folklore creatures known as youkai. Yet, despite her aggression towards them, she will usually befriend the culprits after solving an incident and even drink tea with them. Akyuu states that "extermination" basically means "rough up a bit" to her.
