Present company excluded. But yeah - overall, people are the worst.
Again, I do blame this administration for a lot of it.
Clearly, homophobia, racism, xenophobia, misogyny have always been there, but until 2016 it had kind of been slightly less acceptable to just be outright homophobic, racist xenophobic and mysogynistic.
All bets are off now. They have been for a while. People are just showing their true colours - and why not? There is seemingly no repercussions for any of this anymore. Zero accountability.
Take these fine upstanding students at Visalia Redwood High School showing their outward hate in a school photo.
Oh, I'm sure they'll say "it was just a joke". If so - then include the story and photo in your college essays and see how many places accept you.
No worries - the school is doing a "full investigation".
Whatevs.
Here is the sad part. Sadder? Saddest?
Go to Goooooooogle News. As of last evening when I drafted this, there were only four (!) stories that were there. Then it dropped to a 2019 story of a student arrest.
See ? No one cares.
You can't condemn their actions when almost no one is showing said actions.
And so you know their high education standards, someone might want to tell the folks of Visalia that the Redwoods are a few hundred miles to the northwest of them. They might consider changing the name of the school to the Bigots.
Fuck them.
