She probably just has a blackmail fetish.

Red flag. Bad opsec. I wouldn't trust someone who trusts me.
Sounds like a scene from Get Out lol.
Have confidence in the credibility of what she is expressing in those videos.
Why is this posted in the funny community?
A tradition alive since time began on Reddit. Nothing funny can be posted on the funny community.
The poster says it’s funny
"Let me take a video of you saying you're going to kill the president."
First, 100% a red flag. Even if they wanted to give some sort of "I trust you with my life" sort of video, there's a bunch of better ways to do it. Going for a racist rant makes me think that they're a racist.
Secondly, this is deeply submissive - they're giving you the power to ruin their life. If you want to do that sort of stuff as a couple you should really talk about it first and be on board with receiving that sort of power and responsibility. Entirely possible+reasonable for the receiver to find this shitty because they don't want to make a choice like this, especially if these are truly held beliefs.
The healthy response to this is to send them to a therapist. And definitely dump them if they're actually racist.
I don't see how someone could do a racist rant and not be racist. That it is a rant is an important word here.
Have you never heard of acting?
Where's the leverage if it's a performance?
I can (and have, many times) dropped a hard-r for comedic effect, even around my black friends, as they have the context to know that I'm not actually the kind of person to use that word normally
If I was recorded and shared to the internet doing so free of context, I would be labelled as a racist shithead immediately and forever
Is that the situation here? It is not.
Everyone wanting to give the benefit of the doubt here gives racists room to exist.
That's how I read it, yes. But we obviously don't have enough context to say whether the GF is actually racist or just pretending to be as a crazy trust exercise. I'm taking it as a crazy trust exercise because that's the only way this could fit any definition of "romantic."
Not even if you were an actor?
I bet if you tried hard enough you could come up with one
Ok. What's yours?
I think taking any random problem and putting blame on a group of people would be racist. I could spruce it up with the term “nipper” or “kike” and most people would find it racist
I suppose you just don’t find anything racist if you can’t come up with it
I supposed you just don't find anything racist
I am arguing the exact opposite.

ITT: Everyone taking a shitpost from reddit posted to [email protected] seriously
Also: both romantic and a red flag

A red flag.
Sharing dangerous ideas with somebody to show that you think they are safe is an honest signal of trust, but only if the dangerous ideas are genuine.
Someone who attempts to buy trust disingenuously is not to be trusted.
Someone who thinks in terms of kompromat and manipulation is dangerous to be around.
Sounds like a red flag with a white circle and a black symbol within. But also romantic. They're not mutually exclusive.
As some say, romance is death...
She's probably great in bed. The crazy ones always are.
To all you younglings out there reading this, crazy chicks are fun but they will ruin your life.
Never stick your dick in crazy.
Never stick your dick in crazy more than once.
FTFY
Absolutely. Remember this: crazy chicks are fun.
Truth. There's often no safe exit strategy either. Once the deed is done, you are in grave danger.

I can corroborate this as well firsthand. Shit had its amazing highs but set me back years and nearly tore apart everything in the process. It's just not worth it

Obligatory "this some young people shit".
Young people do and say stupid shit to come off as edgy and the vast majority of them don't actually mean it and regret it later in life.
As to your question, that's why you date people, to see if they're good, for you and otherwise. You don't go "red flag!" -> napalm!!!, you evaluate contexts and repeat occurrences of perceived wrongs.
That being said, it's a huge red flag and you don't need a repeat occurrence to end the relationship.

Sounds like she is making a "joke" in poor taste while also fishing for your take on the things she is joking about.
or perhaps it's something sexual. Power imbalance Idk.
RED FLAG.
No sane person does things like that.
Absolutely insane.
Just get a tattoo of their name like the rest of us.

She is treating the relationship and trust as transactional. No bueno.
This is kinda unhinged in my opinion.
But then again, I grew up before social media, maybe this is the ultimate proof of love now? I don't know.
Anyway, putting herself completely at your mercy is not a good start into a healthy, mutually respectful relationship.
Either unhinged or brain rotted from a steady diet of Tiktok videos. Or both.

Relationships are no jokes. Neither is racism. Depending on how I feel about her, the video might leak. I would certainly not stay.
Big red flag to me.
Edit: I have broadened my mind. I had not considdered receiving such a video from somebody whom of I am certain has no racist mind at all.
In that case I would reciprocate by deleting the footage.
Damn, remind me not to partner with you in a trust fall.
Like this has "here is a staged video of me as a proof/test of trust" and not "here is actual proof I'm a racist" because there would have been OTHER proof, racists aren't that sneaky.
Your first reaction is "finally I have a chance to ruin this girl I love's life and go FULL SCORCHED EARTH"
Fuck man, you've got to dial up your chill at least a skosh!
racists aren't that sneaky.
What is it about being a racist that makes you unable to be sneaky? There are smart racists and there are dumb racists. There are all kinds of racists.

the video might leak.
That’s a little much. Such poor taste she deserves a criminal record?
Leaving works though for sure. Can do the favor of explaining why too.

I have a fleeting suspicion that this girl now thinks, because of her own action, she can do this to you now as well. OP, be careful what you share with her because ruining someones life is an option in her book...
Wait for another hack on a cloud service then put it online and claim ignorance.
