[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL that living in FCC for 12 years is "new" when this is the DC area and so many people moving in and out, foreign service, etc and that the new vs old mentality is the problem. Ask the mid west how that's working out for them. [/quote]

I don’t think it’s a new vs. old mentality. I am the poster above you. I think it is a mentality that anyone who disagrees with a person is wrong and can be insulted. I’m also in FCC and have been here for 15 years so I am fairly new by that person’s standards. I don’t agree with a lot of people and how they behave now. This is no longer a welcoming community where diversity is celebrated and embraced. Which is ironic, because people like to shout about diversity all of the time.  They are only concerned with the color of your skin and making sure we have included everyone. Differences in opinion, especially when it comes to politics, are not welcome. I would not have moved here 15 years ago if I had a crystal ball. [/quote]

It's performative wokeness.  Everyone else sees it for that, and nothing more.

Real contrition would involve FCC reaching out to Fairfax County and offering to re-incorporate the lower-income areas that FCC disposed of many decades ago when they didn't want Black people living in their town and having voting rights or children to educate.

Alternatively, FCC should make a large, voluntary payment to the schools in the Falls Church HS pyramid to reflect the additional expenses that the county incurred over the years due to that decision. [/quote]
