Thank God I have been 6 years out of High School. Absolutely hated everything about it. I feel sorry for kids these days.
The term kids these days has been forever ruined for me by boomers following it with some bullshit reactionary drivel.
Can I ask what you mean by reactionary in this context? I've been seeing lots of people say that lately.
It's the opposite of "revolutionary"; when the ruling class in a country opposes revolutionary movements stay in power.
When a capitalist state (ie. ruled by the capitalist class) is in decline (rising costs, worsening working conditions, etc), workers tend to unionize and organize into political parties with the goal of overthrowing capitalist rule.
Capitalists react to this (reactionary) by shifting the blame onto already marginalized people to scapegoat them so they can stay in power, which leads to fascism if capitalists manage to stave off a working class revolution; hence why socialists say fascism is capitalism in decay. This is what happened to the Weimar republic for example and is what led to Nazi Germany.
