"To Kill a Mockingbird" might have been a better example but I'll be
dead before I'll be able to link to book or movie because it made its
point well enough that copyright will keep it out of unpaywalled culture
for another century if not longer.

Shrug. Sometimes an off-topic discussion can
make people relate more
to others on a medium that is lacking physical presence so it's a
judgment call of whether or not continuing it is a good or a bad
thing. You make it easy to make that call.
Absolutely. You posted a cheap, stereotypical video that's solely made
to exploit a certain narrow range of emotions where truly humane
feelings have no place and are even debased.
