Yep I knew this shit when I was twelve thanks to my parents and my Navajo stepdad.
We had a school presentation when I was in elementary school where we had to represent a country and I did a presentation about the genocide of indigenous people at home and abroad by the US and the British lol.
I want to know why at a certain age, people start to vice signal and try to act “evil” because they think it’s “edgy” or something — where does that come from? I’m of the opinion that adults can grasp these things (since, you know, they presumably did at some point when they were younger and largely weren’t deliberately being cruel like this) but choose not to for some reason and I wish I knew why.
If I were to guess it’s a perception that the world being cruel and there being bad people is “just the way it is” and that holding on to “kiddie morality” makes you “too good for this world”. By extension, caring and sharing then makes you either naive, weak, foolhardy or parasitic. In such a cruel world, preservation of oneself and the group you belong to become all that matters.
Society sucks, but “handouts” will be taken advantage of, accepting queer people threatens social order, leftists and “soft” people always get in the way of what needs to be done: discipline and cleansing.
She’s moved on to having to teach adults who can’t grasp shit children can.
because they’re all 12??
A 12 year old could grasp these things.
