"Whoa whoa whoa, back up." Ella replied, basically about to snap. "You really think the European people from over a century or so ago who killed people over the fictitious crime of witchcraft or the Vikings that raided and pillaged many villages are a representation of us? Man, if my cousin Gwen were here right now, she'd give you a more serious talking to than I would! We have Native Americans, humans nowhere near what you went on about, regularly performing ghost dances even after colonizing armies drove them off their homelands, and we got Mexican people jollily celebrating the deceased in body, mind, and soul, going out of their way to give them offerings of food and drink in lovingly-crafted home altars called Ofrendas to the deceased, all in a holiday called 'Dios de Los Muertos,' and there's even a 2015 'Dios de Los Muertos' movie called 'Coco' showing what happens when the dead loses the memories of the living and thus their identity. If Mexicans treat their dead better than you treat your dead despite being an entirely separate race, then you gotta re-evaluate your freaking life choices. And you, who should know better than a freaking goth girl about this subject matter yet somehow don't, claim that we're just barbarians who are no different from witch hunters and oil moguls?! Lady, I don't care what title you hold, screw off with that bullshit! And by the way, we aren't freaking tinfoil hat-wearing hooligans who think necromancy exist like you think we are!" Soon after that rant, Ella breathed heavily.
