when a rich white town, like Westwood MA, (see Westwood High School) pretends nothing bad ever happens within its borders, so they blatantly ignore the issues that run rampant within it (like internalized racism, antisemitism, sexism, classism, etc.) Often can lead to misunderstanding the complex socioeconomic issues that control the lives of most of the world, leading people to become either dangerously naive or dangerously bigotted. A wonderful example of the modern mindset, especially in New England.
Don't mind Brendan. He grew up inside the Westwood Bubble. I think this is his first time seeing someone get arrested.
