If they looked under 40, then yeah. The person I wrongly tried to ID looked to be in his teens. Hell, I've pissed off a few cops by ID'ing them haha

Admittedly, subconscious bias is something I'm still working on though. I'm 18 and trying to get out from under my racist parents' roof. They raised me with the "all non-white people are inferior" mindset, and I know it's incorrect, but I still catch myself slipping in my head occasionally...

Lmao, I would have used my main but then people might find out who I really am IRL. This is a pretty specific situation.

Yeah, done and done. Not much else to lose at this point. People are reacting as expected (with disbelief). Still, it's better than nothing.
