Yep, agreed, but these are teenagers. I did not have much foresight as a teenager, either.

Dumb as I was at that age, I can’t imagine agreeing to do something like that or making friends with anyone who would.

Because we are not the same type of people they are? They just didn't care as much.

Yup, if you grow up in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma, there isn't a lot of racial diversity. So this isn't something they likely have run into in any meaningful sense, so they wouldn't understand just how hurtful it can be.

Teenagers today do. I guarantee there are thousands of kids in that school who know better and would never do this. Being young doesn't make you racist

No, but it does make some less educated. Not everyone is online a lot. Plenty of people just hang out with their friends without learning anything. It's very possible they haven't learned why that is so wrong.

Well with the internet I'm sure they now will have an entire life of dealing with those consequences.

Yeah, teenagers are often pretty fucking stupid.
