@ToruOkada I don’t think “hate” is accurate. Hate implies they have some sort of emotion involving us. I went to school with the 1%. We are to them as ants are to us. They’re indifferent to us until we annoy them, and then they crush us and move on.

@ToruOkada @lifeinthePNW I had some invite me to a fancy country club party when I was 11 and get me drunk then laugh when I acted a fool and the dad said really loud You know that's how "they" get.I ran down the long driveway and half way home .. They suck!
@Tattoomonkey29 @lifeinthePNW I'm sorry. These people are the true barbarians.
@ToruOkada @lifeinthePNW yeah, it was pretty awful and cruel, they were christians no less.
