If I am not mistaken...

C. seems to be communicating some thoughts about why his experience with the patriarchy was really different from Sinéad O'Conner's?

A couple of young adults in their twenties I spoke with recently apparently had no idea who O'Connor, was, either.

They had more thoughts about student loans, how their grandparents could afford to buy houses while working blue collar jobs, etcetra, but well, I brought up ripping up a picture of the Pope on TV, and one of them remembered that.

So if his Uber driver didn't know about him, how much should he think about that, really, compared to, you know, a lot of the other things he could be thinking about?
