When someone flips out because a social justice issue is brought up like it's the 1970s and your old man is yelling at you for wearing a hat inside. They use words that sound nice but are full of hate, throw around tiny racist insults, and make fun of people like they're from another planet. It’s like being yelled at by a man who thinks he’s the king of the world.
'You’re not even a real person!' said my dad when I called him out for saying 'queer' like it was a curse.
'I didn’t mean to be racist, I just wanted to make a point!' said my uncle after he called my friend a ‘foreigner’ for no reason.
My neighbor called my friend ‘a lazy Mexican’ when he asked for a raise. It was like watching a bad movie.

When you copy your granddad’s moves, like he’s the king of cool. It’s like being a mini version of him, but you still think you’re the main character. You do everything he does, even when you’re clearly not as cool.
'I’m doing this like my granddad!' said my cousin when he did a backflip in the park like he was 10.
My uncle called me ‘oppa’ when I did a dance move he saw on TikTok. It was weird and confusing.
My dad tried to do the same karate move my granddad did in the 80s. It looked like he was trying to punch a ghost.
