It unfortunately still hasn't penetrated into the most old school ones, apparently. Whatever you are talking about anyway.


If by "old school" you mean "everywhere outside of Silicon Valley", then maybe. Coming from a pretty conservative society, I read these sorts of discussions with mild amusement. I may have formed a mistaken impression of the US society, but it seems to me that it tends to bounce from one extreme of political or social views to another.


I would not know, I live in Europe ;-) Extrema do exist here though.
