"He said whites beings jocks and Chads should naturally submit to Screech" on Christmas eve. For 24 hours.
He said, "the world should be oriented around Screech and not Zack". Because he is Screech.
America is Zack.
He completely crapped all over the idea that American exceptionalism is not just smarts. Not just yearning and striving. Not just working hard.
American exceptionalism is all of the above, and none of the above to excess.
Well rounded. Creative. Ambitious, but not as a focus beyond all other human endeavours. Titles are earned, but they are never the goal.
Love, Morality, Conscience, Creativity, Fearlessness, Unselfishness, and a spirit of adventure. Cannot be nurtured in the environment that Screech creates.
Should we sacrifice these values in pursuit of a credentialized society that poops in the street?
