The tags are actually mine, and I need you all to know when I said "girl," I actually meant "young woman of 23 years old," and the brainrot was so deep she tried to get us all to sit down as a class and vote as to whether or not we thought the designated reading with its dark themes were appropriate reading for a classroom.
For a Gothic Horror Literature class at university level.
There was not a single person in that room under the age of 20. We were all adults, mere months away from graduating with our bachelor degrees, and this person felt comfortable trying to police us and the class contents like we were five.
Needless to say, we did not participate in a vote. Nor did the professor call her stupid to her face, no matter how much she might have wanted to. Instead, she invited anyone who felt uncomfortable to drop the class. Bafflingly, the student who complained didn't leave, but she made damn sure to let us know during every class discussion that she didn't agree with the morality of the texts.
And this wasn't recent. This was over 15 years ago, long before TikTok, so this was home-brewed idiocy likely strained through the puritanical discourse of some LiveJournal flamewar.
Basically, what I'm getting at is 'what's old is new again.'
The only difference is now everyone's got access to the Internet via the smartphone in their pocket, and they're making their ignorance everyone else's problem on a much larger scale.
