Between this Starbucks “protest” and Hamilton “protest”, I am convinced that the majority of the people who make up the far right have been so sheltered from the concept of not having rights that they literally don’t know how to fight for them.
This is a legitimate phenomenon. Sheltered, privileged people perceive slight annoyances such as a traffic jam or a change in coffee cups as serious issues simply because they rarely ever suffer in their highly comfortable, secure lives.
They have little sympathy for people who have real issues like lack of food, safety and warmth simply because they get riled at such tiny issues in their pampered lives. It’s let them eat cake for the modern age (even if Marie A didn’t historically say that) The idea of discrimination is so alien to them that it’s almost impossible to explain in a way that they can understand.
for people who think there are just too many labels
-”He’s the kind of person who always knows what box to fill in on the census.” -”She’s just… never really thought about her name.” -”His queer community center is society, if you know what I mean.” -”She, um… still shops in the same parts of the department store.” -”He… you know… he’s the type who might dye his hair brown?” -”How to put this… She can enjoy a Seth McFarlane joke.”

my dad used to occasionally speak in lolcat speak and now im imagining some dad dropping his kid off with their friends and being like “dont stay up too late and astral project behind an arby’s to get in a knife fight with god!! Lol” and his kid rolling their eyes while their friends snicker
how do some parents freak out when their 8 year old child sees any movie over the rating of PG-13 without their permission and then,,, at the same time,,,,,, only idk 10% of those same parents seem to have Any Idea how ESRB ratings work on video games. If little billy can’t watch Terminator or whatever then why is he wearing a Call of Duty tshirt, sharon
Little Billy: Can’t watch scary movies, but he banged your mom.
Rear your fucking children people. Goddamn.
Because parents don’t want to take responsibility for anything. It’s never the parents fault according to the parents.
