Questions we explored in this episode:
1. Has this kind of hate always existed, and people were just suppressing it because of fear of consequences? Or is it being revived and passed down again, even after skipping generations?
2. Are people expressing these views now because there are fewer consequences, especially on social media?
3. Is fear of consequences (like cancel culture) an effective long-term solution?
4. What are the real long-term solutions to reducing this kind of group-based hate?
5. Are we indirectly teaching people how to bury their hate?
6. Lastly, Should we care whether people truly change or is how they act in public a good qualifier?
