I’ll start:

Idaho - when people think “racism in the United States” their minds go to the Deep South. The Deep South is absolutely pretty bad, and there’s of course the whole history with the confederacy so it makes sense that’s what we think of, but Idaho is let off the hook way too much given that it’s a hotbed of Nazis and Christian nationalists trying to form a white ethnostate. Idaho needs to be more closely linked to virulent racism like the Deep South currently is. And tbh I’ve been to the Deep South, I like it down there, it’s actually pretty diverse in many areas, if I had to live there it wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. You couldn’t pay me to set foot in Idaho.

Gen X - look, if we’re gonna do generational warfare gen x needs a lot more hate. Sorry to any xers out there but boomers have been punching bags for a while, millenials are starting to get a good amount of hate, and they’ve always been made fun of for their Harry Potter and office love, tbh a lot of millennial shit is just considered cringe these days, gen z obviously gets all the “ugh what’s wrong with the youth” hate and this new media cycle has them being portrayed as pretty much the new hitler youth. Gen x needs to start getting some more hate, especially now with all these weird gen x venture capitalists influencing the trump admin trying to realize their vision of a neo fascist network state

    Oh god completely hear you on the school car lines. I don’t even think my town has gotten rid of the school busses, but every suburbanite parent I guess feels like they have to drive their kid to and from school in a big suv these days. Annoying as hell, and it’s like every single school around here with these lines too.

      Where I live this happens at all the bougie private schools and they don’t bother trying to line up, they just park wherever they want, including the bike lane, on the crosswalk, on the sidewalk, and then complain about 1984 totalitarianism when they get a ticket

      Imagine delivering parcels in these neighbourhoods, you just have to know which roads are completely impassible at what times, and plan your day around it, good fucking luck if you don’t know the area in extreme detail.
