Why, though?
Why is this the hill the left has chosen to die on..??
This predates Floyd. Arguably it goes back much further than that, but modern leftists... Seem to have made this "their lot", this last... Decade. Why? Why do we think that is??
Not books, not movies, but statues and buildings. Why the fuck is this the left's current game?
The culture wars have, as I say, come to my home city now (thanks, leftist cunts), and I do actually have a dog in this fight, as a result.
Tips on how to fight back appreciated.
Oddly, this is being done expressly against the wishes of ratepayers, only weeks before an election is due to take place, for that council. It is very, very dubious timing, to say the least.
I know these people personally (the councillors), so while they ain't gonna listen to me, you can sure as shit bet I am going to use that to my advantage, here, lol...
Who'd have thought this would come home to roost quite like this...
So I decided to wade into the discussion on the local media Facebook page (but of course)…
Guess what happened soon after?
Bloke with a defaced picture of Groot as his profile pic, and a profile that looked, let’s say, as fake as it possibly could, decided to call me a “racist bigot who doesn’t even know what woke means”.
“How could you possibly oppose this? I bet you would have owned slaves, if you still could.”
Yes, really. And that was just the beginning of it…
It’s almost like these people, if they are real, and not just bots, select from a fucking script/list of prompts…
It is so… Inorganic, even the word choice, that I fail to believe these NPCs can be real people, or, if they are, that they have any real life, offline…
Oh, you want an example of their patron saint, for funzies..?
Look up Grace Tame. She was fucking Australian of the Year, last year, so she passes the notoriety test.
We grew up literally a few streets from one another. We have “mutual friends”. We graduated (from different schools) the same year. We most definitely know the same people…
And yet..? Never in my life have I seen someone so bitter and twisted, who is using her notoriety and “fame”, now, to fuck with people’s lives…
Dumb bitch (getting into dubious territory, here, I know) was married to fucking Abigail Breslin’s brother, who acted in the Cat in the Hat, for a while, before she unceremoniously divorced him and ran back here to fuck with things some more…
SJWs (like the one I mentioned, re Facebook) fucking LOVE her. And yet, if she isn’t a fucking whirlwind of trouble, I don’t know what is. I’m 100% sure she will use this statue debacle to ingratiate herself with the usual types. She ALWAYS does.
She’s essentially an inverse of me: similar life experiences (except that I’m male, obviously), similar background, completely opposite “political persuasions” and (now) direction in life…
And yet she gets praised heaped on her, to the teeth, for it…
Bad, bad times at the El Royale…
