Cao, the token race traitor who threw all minorities under the bus for a group of bigger assholes that wants him dead. Fuck this guy.
Awwww good kitty!!
Good dog!!
This threw me off for a hot minute. I used to know a guy who went by the nickname “Vag” (with a hard “g”), so when I read this, I thought to myself, “Vag! I wonder how Vag is doing?” But you’re talking about VAG, not Vag. Now I’m just trying to cram as much vag as I can into this paragraph. So much vag. Vag vag vag. Thank you.
I feel bad, I glossed over what you said and just vented away. I hear you about the disappointing responses, it’s not so nice a feeling when you realize some people would rather change the subject than confront reality. Yeah, sometimes the mental gymnastics reach Olympic-like levels.
I grew up hearing that in my home state of Hawai’i, where you have large swaths of poor folks - mostly of indigenous Hawaiian descent - born into and dying in poverty. Generation after generation, in small towns surrounded by literal wilderness (state forest preserves) with no jobs, a shite public school budget, and connected to civilization by a single road. And the islands are in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, so there’s no escape. You can’t just drive off to Mexico or anything like that to start a new life, if you are born poor then you are trapped.
This “leaving it in the past” bullshit has only made the inequity worse… but everyone’s been conditioned to think with a toxic boomer mentality, so reparations for indigenous Hawaiians has never been a serious topic of discussion. It’s like, there’s no sense of compassion whatsoever. Nobody gives a shit, and that’s the most infuriating part.
