Way more messed up, for different reasons. I went to elementary school with a minor Canadian TV “star” (there’s not really such thing as a TV star in Canada) and a future local news anchor and holy shit, they were both insufferable. They turned out fine as far as drugs and self-destruction go, but they’re only…

I don’t disagree with you, but holy shit, “progressive” men are pretty rapey too. It’s just that when they build structures to reinforce rape culture, they call them “the Academy.”

It’s more about honour. You want to beat the other riders on the merits, not take advantage of their bad luck.
