A Middle School Student On A Trip To DC Spat On A Black Person At The African American History Museum

Pretty sure I’d go to jail. In my heart of hearts I hope I have something in me that says understand stakes, know that I have more to live for, that worst things have happened. But all my brain is telling me as I find out this news and try to put myself in these shoes is that I’d fly into a blind rage.

school groups flocking to what was once the Blackest city in America, all rocking the same souvenir vendor MAGA gear, wearing the same smug look of audacity & privilege.

Anyone thinking that this shit Trump started is going to flame out anytime soon is highly mistaken and completely underestimates the impact & cultural influence that MAGA has had on youth in the middle school to high school age bracket.

There won't be another republican candidate with the same draw and appeal as the Donald. He's more of a celebrity than a political figure to them, I would guess.

There doesn't have to be another republican candidate with his draw.....all it takes is ONE to influence a generation...and that's now done.

But I also feel like this is kind of an anamoly. I pray that by the time these dipshits are able to vote they'll be distracted by other shit and not be invested in politics.

When a kid spit off the balcony is a reach. We can all see how you got there, especially in 2019, but the kid spit off the balcony. Not in someone's face. I don't know if you've ever spent time around any middle school boys, but spitting off the balcony is pretty much standard operating procedure. So, unless you've got anything that actually points to a "political motivation," "Trumps generational damage," is putting an octagon-shaped peg in a round hole.

Didn't say anything about "political motivation"

You're providing a whole lot of benefit of the doubt based off of way less knowledge and exposure to the situation and scene than I am though....I can guarantee you that.

It’d be uncommon for it to be anyone but a magateen.
I worked on the mall for two years as all of this was jumping off, I can only imagine how much worse it’s gotten.

https://www.ctpost.com/local/article/Blackface-photo-under-investigation-by-Shelton-14429765.php

SHELTON — Shelton Public Schools are investigating after students reported a photo on Snapchat of a white student in blackface, officials said Tuesday.

Superintendent of Schools Chris Clouet said he received a photo at around 6:15 a.m. Tuesday that showed a white student wearing a black substance on her face, appearing to be some kind of face paint or beauty mask.

In the photo she is seen sticking out her tongue and holding up both middle fingers. Reports indicate the photo was captioned “New (racial slur) in town.”

Clouet said several students claimed they were purposely tagged in the post, and that some of those tagged were Shelton Intermediate School students. Principal Dina Marks spoke to those students Tuesday.

everyone is trained to care about it, it's a sick obsession that continues to spiral
out of control. and these kids obviously want attention because they appear to be
losers.

And was overwhelmed by all the seemingly unchaperoned maga-hat wearing pre teens and middle schoolers (even a sprinkling of black ones) disrespectfully running around the place.
