EVIE
I think that peoples views have
always been quite similar over the
years cause probably a long time a
go people were judged by things
they shouldn't be judged but
society these days. A lot more
people are mean and they shouldn't
be.
CUT TO:
CHARLIE
I think social media might be to
blame, these stereotypical thoughts
people have.
