Is Opie the real racist of O & A?

No, that would still be Anthony.

I like how Patrice mentioned how if Opie had to go into prison he's have to begrudgingly join the Aryan Brotherhood, while Anthony would be like "Finally!".

Opie's just a dork and did race jokes for shock value but you can tell he really got uncomfortable toward the end during the race rants and while he's a dullard he seemed interested in the other point of view, trying to get black callers, etc. Anthony definitely likes certain black people, but he audibly used to sigh in disgust when they played any clip when a black person popped in (even when the clip wasn't related to race at all). I see Anthony as having legit black friends but is obsessed with race, while Opie doesn't really have black friends but, much like a child, kind of wants to learn more about "those people".

And then you have Colin Quinn, Jimmy, Vos and Bobby, who probably have the least isolated attitudes but still really love making an amazingly good racist joke.

He used to refer to black people as "shwoogies".

Both Opie and Anthony are bigoted. We know who Anthony doesn't like. Opie is more of an anti-Semite.
