Did Nazi That Coming

I was obviously hiding under a rock Out in the hills Amid my animals and gardens Happily and merrily going harmlessly on my way When the great cancellation began And suddenly every slight innuendo and reference To some historical moment A moment which could possibly have offended And caused great hurtful harm To those so inclined Was deemed hateful Instead of just ignorant or silly, funny or crude At first in my oblivion I didn’t take it seriously It didn’t seem like my battle to fight But you know, hate is just the child Of fear And fear can get a society to agree to anything (10/28/24)

Thanks David! It is a clever title but I stole it from somewhere I can’t recall. Still, too good to let go to waste. lol
