The New Puritans, Part Ii

...It was only two days later when the local catholic high school was told their team name, the ‘Crusaders,’ was insensitive and uncool. Protestors showed up to bellow slurs, and get all up in the kids’ face, the media scoffed and insulted the children and their competing faith. It was about this time that I began to notice a trend, these people all seemed to be leftist, and were miserable to no end. Their reactions weren’t disagreements, they were rabid cries of “Heresy!” no longer could they understand deviations from their beliefs. And like every True Believer they thought they were doing God’s work, their God was the state, above all else, and all must now obey his words! This all seemed very odd to me, didn’t they once preach tolerance? And now they destroy the different, how the hell does that make any sense? How does a person go from free speech to banning any words they don’t like? How do you scream “appropriation,” when you once said,”Learn from that tribe?” What comes next, a scarlet ‘R,’ to represent their favorite slur, an ‘S’ if you don’t bow to women, an ‘F’ if you refuse their words? Or maybe they’ll give yellow stars to all who refuse to comply, making it easier to find us when they decide that we should die. I guess you can’t be a democrat ff you believe in freedom or fun, don’t you know they know what’s best for you? America’s new Puritans. ...you know what, screw 'em! A feminist, a Muslim, and a bisexual midget walk into a bar...
