For example, in The Shield, the cop character Shane is super racist and says the N-word, but when a Black girl is killed, Shane gets really mad and wants to find and kill the killer or bring him to justice. Some CEOs who are straight-up classist would still help their employees, and if their employee dies, they would start funds for their kids. But why? Why would people like this do something ‘good,’ especially when there isn’t anything in it for them?

    The biggest piece of shit I know (MAGA, gun nut, religious nutcase, married his daughters off to desirable candidates) lives near the Mexican border and takes in immigrants who have illegally crossed the border, gives them food and drink and sends them on their way. No, he doesn’t call ICE.

      Or y’know, maybe they are pretty representative of the people who comes here like that
