Where is the one about being a Christian and a conservative, and people jumping on them saying they are hateful racist and homophobic?
Come on now. If you went on any social media right now and simpky said "I am proud to be a white male" you would be met with accusations of racism and white supremacy and misogyny.Really? Because I don't ever see this happening (well, the man part, but only by men who feel this way because of the MeToo Movement). If anything, this is what I always see happening:
Yes, this. Goes back to the old Carlin thing, "You can be happy to be American... but how can you be proud? You were born here!"Frankly, I dont think being proud if what race, gender, or sexuality you are even makes sense. You didnt do anything to earn it. No one works hard all their life to become white (except Michael Jackson). No one has to study to become gay. These arent things one should take pride nor shame in.
Do you mean that the so-called tolerant left aren't so tolerant after all? Naaahhh, that can't be.Where is the one about being a Christian and a conservative, and people jumping on them saying they are hateful racist and homophobic?
Well, I mean, when it comes to conservative Christians (not all Christians in general, mind you), yes, I see a lot of this.Where is the one about being a Christian and a conservative, and people jumping on them saying they are hateful racist and homophobic?
That's why I don't have to make such proclamations, because . . . why should I be proud of being a straight, white, Christian male? It's not like I'm a special person because of those things, and it's not like I somehow earned them through some kind of grit and determination.Come on now.
