We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I now understand why this quote probably got a low rating. Thanks, ChatGPT.

(The following text directly came from ChatGPT.)

The low rating and negative reactions to this quote could stem from several reasons:

1. Oversimplification: Some people might feel that the quote oversimplifies the complexities and historical context of racism. Racism is a deep-rooted issue that encompasses systemic discrimination, prejudice, and power dynamics, and reducing it to a comparison with candy colors may be seen as trivializing or minimizing the problem.

2. Lack of nuance: Racism involves more than just physical appearances, and it affects individuals on multiple levels, including social, economic, and cultural aspects. By focusing solely on the visual differences between M&M's and equating them to race, the quote overlooks the broader implications of racism.

[2/2]

3. Ignoring lived experiences: Racism has profound impacts on the lives of individuals and communities. By suggesting that the insides of M&M's are the same, the quote fails to acknowledge the unique experiences, cultures, and identities that different racial and ethnic groups bring to society.

4. Colorblindness: The quote promotes a "colorblind" perspective, which suggests that race should be ignored or disregarded altogether. However, many people argue that colorblindness can perpetuate systemic inequalities by failing to recognize and address the ongoing impacts of racism.

I feel your frustration. I really do. I smack my keyboard so hard that I lose feeling in my hand for a while but I keep on typing until I either get so angry that I just get up and take a break or watch Youtube for a while. You'll get there my friend.

If people slack their way into good education, they'll find they're out of their depth once they get there.

You can 100% eat money. It is not healthy but you 100% can eat money. Even credit cards.

same dawg, I'm in a virtual class rn typing away while the teacher is talking lol

do you want people who worked hard and have good work ethic, people who earned it, or people who cheated or slacked their way into good education

uh no you want dumb people in school or smart people in school which makes sense
