This coutry has lost its fricking mind. And this current generation, which is as fricked up as a soup sandwich, is just a byproduct of it all.

That light-skinned Lexi looks nothing like my wife, who is a real light-skinned Lexi. Fake news.

I'm triggered that they named that poor fictional poc "jaz". That really enforces cultural stereotypes

Lexi really needs to apologize for her eyes being in her fricking hairline and creeping everyone the hell out.

I want to fight the person that created this.

Male or female, it doesn't matter.

My biggest problem with this is the use of they as a pronoun instead of she.

Lexi refers to Jaz as "they", but Jaz refers to themselves as "I". Of course, there is no requirement for a nonconforming, nonbinary persyn to acknowledge their alternate when they are in one of those states, so I guess it is permissible.

Thank God he isn't upper middle class or he wouldn't have any street cred.
