at the beginning of this semester, i tried to explain Citizens' United, which none of them had heard of, and i was basically flop-sweating trying to explain how there's a lot of corruption but some of it is legal/in plain sight and some is technically *not* legal but happening anyway (all as background to why regulation is a solution to tech problems but unlikely to occur). i think they were hopelessly confused
now everything's shifted on a dime because of Hungary? oh well
@inquiline you are not alone, it's WILD yo.

@inquiline less straightforward in a studio class, and maybe mine were just getting more comfortable with me over the course of the term, but the casual conversations definitely dramatically shifted tone into more overt anger about certain topics
mine remained running scared all semester. they're so hard to read, and they now self-censor in front of each other and me all day long. there seems to be absolutely no common basis of knowledge let alone opinion, either. sighhhh
