You know, it's possible for both of them to be the bad guys, right?

The class of '68 were petit totalitarians. Thankfully we had no Chairman Mao in the USA to really set them loose (like the Red Guard was in China).

The people building these bombs and such were cruel and violent. Hiding behind a shield of a "peace, love, and equality" ideology.

I appreciate your concern Mr. Hashem, but I doubt you had anything to do with the state of our society in the USA. Racial problems were baked into the cake here, so to speak.

Insofar as being "fucked up with regards to race." I've heard there are literal open market slave auctions going on in the Middle East.

Israel is ethnically cleansing Palestiniens.

India has a brutal caste system.

That's all worse than section 8 housing IMHO.

> Mostly, it seems like a lack of positive reinforcement and role models

If one presupposes that men and women are literally just the same. As in they have the same distribution of proclivities and personality traits across their gender this would be the most logical conclusion to reach.

As an aside. Anyone ever heard of David Reimer? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Reimer
