But yeah, as said earlier, Maxwell was the madam/recruiter/enforcer. If you really want some weird poo poo, read these two articles in a row:

No matter the profession, it's weird when some scholar or expert basically reveals themselves to be a complete and utter moron when stretched past that point (though Dersh has been an idiot for a while, the point stands).

I'm watching Community again, and there's a line in the early episodes where Winger compares himself positively to Alan Dershowitz, and man that has become insanely hilarious in retrospect.

So this motherfucker, gets onto a closed freeway by going up an exit ramp, then races along and barrels around the car barriers to then hit at high speed 2 women killing one and loving the other one up.

He might as well just kill himself now because he's not gonna have a good time at all in prison.

He is a black dude that killed a white woman who was telling cops to gently caress off.

I'm no prison expert but it sounds like that ticks a lot of boxes on the stabbing/rape reason checklist.

Not a prison expert, but I know some people. Race is going to be a problem in prison, but it has nothing to do with a person's crime absent some special circumstances - which aren't present here. Maaaaybe it might be used as a pretext, but it will never be the basis/reason for cross racial violence.
Their protesting the police will count for zero. I can hear in my head the prison discussion about that and it won't check a single box. (That discussion won't turn on their gender, either)

Can you give me a resource as to what non-binary means? I know the definition as not identifying as either, but I'd like to learn a little more context. Googling it is a hot mess.

I'm not sure. The only context I'm familiar with is that some people say they know that they aren't a man or a woman, and ask others to refer to them with gender-neutral pronouns. Do you mean, historical context? Gender in other cultures?

Wasabi the J

They identity themselves as not part of the gender binary. Not transgender. Not cis.

It just means they are themselves, just like any he is himself and any she is herself.

Any further conjecture about context lends itself to a debate I have little stake in, and uninformed opinions are used to denigrate the people affected.

They have a 3rd non-identifying pronoun that isnt he/she. This is no longer 0 or 1 and is instead somewhere in between.
