3.0

none of the stories really caught my attention; a couple of them had me really confused about what i was supposed to root for (like the abortion one, i don't get if it was extremely conservative or if it was irony and i was supposed to see them as the villains). Oh also i felt really weird about the story with a chilean character bc he felt really like such a stereotype of a random latin person with no specifically chilean traits and a weird accent that doesn't sound at all like ours.
