“Are you aware that Claude Pepper is known all over Washington as a shameless extrovert? Not only that, but this man is reliably reported to practice nepotism with his sister-in-law, he has a brother who is a known homo sapiens, and he has a sister who was once a thespian in wicked New York. Worst of all, it is an established fact that Mr. Pepper, before his marriage, habitually practiced celibacy.”
And most Americans read at a 6th-grade level. Some things never change.
nepotism is actually bad though
It can be bad, but it doesn’t have to be bad.
As @prettybunnys said, it doesn't have to be a negative. Worked at a family business where every family member got a shot at working there. Almost every single one of them was more than competent. The ones that were not got fired. LOL, by their dad.
And they didn't treat an outsider like me with any less respect. Hell, I pissed the aforementioned dad off and he damned near fired me. Fired his son instead.
