History doesn't exactly repeat. It sometimes rhymes. Just because it happened one way doesn't mean it'll go the exact same way again.

This is beyond hearing. This vibrates the muscle and bone.

Look, I'm sure in the year 1985 you can get plutonium at the local drug store, but in 1955 it's a bit hard to come by!

Peer pressure to conform, toxic masculinity, homophobia, dirty jokes and failure to grasp dark humor, society failing to train boys to mature into men, propaganda news, obsession with team sports, lack of good education, lack of mentorship, etc.

Heroin OD on some remote overlook in Yellowstone. I know it might be rough on somebody eventually, but that would be the place.

I work blue collar. I know some.

Well don't announce it. Change them.

That wasn't an idiot, that dude was trying to dump while he could.

Ok whatever.

I don't believe you have the guts to admit when you're wrong and change your mind. So why waste any more time with you?

No, it isn't.

LoL ok.

Now explain how diversity, equality, and inclusion ruins everything.

LOL wut?! Businesses aren't people.

No, the market does not give a flying fuck about justice. That's why we have a government.

The business owner will get rich, kill the company, then sell off the tattered remains, all while poisoning the groundwater -- and the market won't do a damn thing about it. The workers you don't give a shit about deserve justice, good jobs, and fair treatment. That rich man deserves justice, to have everything he owns seized, including losing his freedom. A business is a piece of paper. It can't feel a goddamn thing.

You and the market would just let them get away with everything they do, so long as they got rich. Those robber barons absolutely love bigoted suckers like you.

You've had this explained to you endlessly already, but you're determined not to understand. It's because the point of society isn't to root for bad businesses failing. It's to ensure the just treatment of all people. If you don't have that, you do not have a civilization. You just don't care about that because you care more about pretending to be superior than about cooperating to build a society of value.

We had that. We had it for decades and it obviously worked great. Now the racists are back in charge, they're burning it all down and propping up pathetically incompetent white conservatives. The racism experiment already ran for centuries in this country, and clearly demonstrated the idiocy of it. But bigots never get sick of trying it. Racist businesses will fail, yet again. What about that are you not understanding?

Because race is irrelevant. Bigotry is not. Did you think that was clever?

Because for bigots, racism trumps profits. Did you think that was a difficult question?

DEI ensured that qualified minorities could not legally be passed over by racists in favor of UNqualified whites, as clearly you are. I would never offer you a job.

Bigotry is so insidious in America that when you call it out for the poison that it is, bigots call you anti-American.
