The Rules

Yeah, but you see that is black dancing. Twerking is also black dancing to them. The principal is punishing this girl because of a perceived moral lapse, but there's always the racial subtext in the South. It reminds me of when all the incels and conservatives freaked out over She-Hulk because of the twerking bit. It's not just morality, but also racism.
