Holy shit, talk about everything people hate about Americans wrapped into a single person. Zero empathy for other people around her, so selfish that she twists herself into thinking she’s right, and worse tries to gaslight the reader into thinking they’re wrong for ever thinking about other people or respect.

It reminds me of the first time I was in DC. I visited the WW2 memorial and it was one of the first times it hit me, I had multiple family members in the war, and I was walking around to the states. Serene. Peaceful, reflecting. Then a family came by and two kids got in the pool. And worse the family laughed and started taking pictures. One of the most disrespectful things I’ve ever seen, just spitting in the face of the people who had died.
