    Everyone who grows up in a single-wide in the woods can have a mansion and a yacht. Well, several actually. Duh.

    In bae's world the exception is the rule!

    Like Rubot once said:

    Yeeeeeehaw!

    Which race are you talking about? The whites down South in the 60s who were unwilling to conform with new anti-segregation laws, and so they started killing blacks and civil rights workers? What are we supposed to conform with?

    I read an article about how we shouldn't use the word "racism"--we should call it white supremacy, which is closer to what the problem really is--that is to say, systemic.

    I haven't formed an opinion on this yet, but it's an interesting idea.
