Usually, a kid who doesn't care about schoolwork, steals, uses drugs/alcohol, and doesn't obey their parents (especially if they curse their parents out).
Half a century ago, "listening to rock&roll" would have been part of the picture too, especially those bands who used Satanic imagery.

I suppose some people believed that comic-book garbage about clones inheriting the memory and personality of the original.

Huh - just tried it at home and I posted just fine, didn't even show the captcha. Guess I passed their spambot test!

Reddit finally banned me for running afoul of their permanent Anti-Rightist campaign, so I bit the bullet and registered on KiwiFarms. But whenever I try to post, the captcha tells me I have a "residential VPN" on my phone. AFAIK I have no such thing; I always connect on T-Mobile 5G (Android.) Is it just not possible to post there from a phone? Is there something I'm missing? Thanks.

And they constantly bring up slavery as if it was just abolished last week, in all manner of crazy contexts. I've seen Los Angeles public transit buses called "slave ships", and the fucking Library of Congress referred to as "the plantation". They never get tired of their schtick.

You've never been to a theater with a predominantly black clientele, then. In 1990, I made the mistake of watching Necessary Roughness at the Union Station theater in DC. During the climactic scene, the whole audience SCREAMED so loud, my ears genuinely hurt and I was afraid my hearing might be damaged forever.
In case you are not a native English speaker, the words are synonymous in this case.
