I Used To Be A Normal Person
As a man, I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person, but I was born white, into a two-parent household which now, whether I like it or not, makes me "Privileged", a racist & responsible for slavery.
I am a fiscal & moral conservative, which by today's standards, makes me a fascist because I plan, budget & support myself.
I went to High School, got a diploma, got two Associate Degrees in college and several aviation licenses, I have always held a job.
But I now find out that I am not here because I earned it, but because I was "advantaged”.
I am heterosexual, which according to "gay" folks, now makes me a homophobe.
I am not a Muslim, which now labels me as an infidel.
I believe in the 2nd Amendment, which makes me a de facto member of the "vast NRA gun lobby”
I am older than 65, making me a useless eater who doesn't understand Facebook, Instagram or Snapchat.
I think & I reason, and I doubt much of what the "main stream" media tells me, which makes me a "Right-wing conspiracy nut”.
I am proud of my heritage & our inclusive American culture, making me a xenophobe.
I believe in hard work, fair play, & fair compensation according to each individual's merits, which today makes me an anti-socialist.
I believe our system guarantees freedom of effort - not freedom of outcome or subsidies which must make me a borderline sociopath.
I believe in the defense & protection of America for & by all citizens, now making me a militant.
I am proud of our flag, what it stands for and the many who died to let it fly, so I stand & salute during our National Anthem - so I must be a racist.
Please help me come to terms with the new me because I'm just not sure who I am anymore!
Funny - it all took place over the last 7 or 8 years of Socialist Democratic control.
If all this nonsense wasn't enough to deal with, now I don't even know which restroom to use… and I gotta go more FREQUENTLY!
IN GOD WE TRUST!
How can I tell you bye if you wont leave?

Well I guess I'm not normal either. I was raised in a different era and am older than most on this site.

Don't worry Xtriangle. Join the club. We're fugged.
But that's okay. We'll outlive all those stupid bastards.
Oh, by the way. You're a bigoted racist ass-eyed sombitch homophobic wannabe what amounts to nothing and needs put down because you're clearly rabid.
Have your politicians, and most of your neighbors, spayed or neutered. Don't hesitate! Do it NOW!

Archerhunter, as politely as I can say, fug your 8 ball sense of humor. We ain’t fugged. We are just stating to get fired up. I never took any prisoners and don’t see any reason to start.

Excellent post, I'm right there with you. I will make it through, as tough as it may be. I really worry about our grand-kids, the world they will be dealing with will be nothing as we know it.

Media driven, Boys.
Don’t buy into the hype.
The degree of my privacy is no business of yours.
