A lot of us are shocked we even reached this point as a society, we didn't even make it 100 years. Floored, shocked, flabbergasted, i could go on, many people have different reactions. The general consensus (at minimal) is that this wasn't appropriate. It also not one thing, calling it as such minimizes societal dynamics of the world as a whole. People are definitely sending this instance around like crazy, but it encompass what many people have warned about for years.
I dislike being correct, I envy some people, I want to close my eyes, I want to just do the 9-5 grind.
