      I’d also challenge “unhinged” - the oppressive systems we all live under are designed to make this shit the norm, they not only breed and encourage racism, misogyny and the rest, but reward those with the privilege and sense of entitlement it gives who do them “best”, it’s why people in such positions can and do say such things, and suffer absolutely zero consequences.

      (to be clear, I’m not condoning the behaviour or saying it’s ok in any way, just that these people are not “unhinged”, they are acting exactly in the way white supremacist patriarchal capitalism normalises and encourages them to)
