The way that poor kid was brutalized is beyond nauseating. I couldn't do that to a rodent, much less a 14-year-old boy.



The amazing thing about psychopaths is how they can justify actions in their own minds. And a corrupt social structure can give them easy targets.

Conversely, a lot of young white people from that generation made conscious decisions not to raise their kids in such environments. The brain drain was real.

psychopaths
Far from clear that they were psychopaths. The entire thing was de facto (if not explicitly) approved by the white population of Mississippi. There needs to be a move away from trying to frame this sort of thing in that period as an outlying event. It was the very air everyone breathed. It also points out how preposterous it is to think that magically things changed overnight because a federal law was passed.
