Teens making out against a wall. Character makes joke about terrorists. Then asks another character "are you one of those people who are really sensitive about terrorist jokes?"
The scene was pretty much left at that. I tried to continue but I'll cool it w books w privileged characters that make offhand remarks about terrorism with not a smidgen of recourse either directly or indirectly. Hard pass.
Edit: I read a tiny bit more and it doesn't seem as though this character is made out to be villainous, ignorant, or unaware. The person she was talking to was our protagonist who I believe is written to be sympathetic, and the remark was a device to amplify the protagonist's "sensitivity" to seeing the characters making out, which I believe makes it even more harmful.

Edit again: Finished this so people wouldn’t come at me for not finishing it when I include it in a list in an upcoming video. Wasn’t worth it.
