This is just another wedge issue, same as the anti-gay marriage movement GWB used to get elected in 2004, and will likely fade away over the next decade or so. Admittedly both the woke crowd and the LGBT movement can go too far, but it’s mostly harmless. Meanwhile children are being slaughtered in their classrooms by firearms that are often purchased legally by other children, women have been stripped of their medical rights by a religiously fanatical Supreme Court, tens of millions of republicans believe that everybody in America is lying except one Donald J. Trump, the House majority and a good portion of the Senate are shameless sycophants who have made lying and lunacy public policy and, just as an afterthought, climate change is destroying the planet for our children and grandchildren-yes, even the ones who attend public schools-yet none of which is even mentioned by MFL. Good looking out, moms.

You really need to get away from Berkeley more and meet normal people in middle America. You have overdosed on the liberal koolaid.

Oh really? The liberal kool aid, as opposed to the cultish inebriation of the MAGA crowd? The anti-abortion pro death penalty armed to the teeth extra ammunition in my bible climate-change and election results denying mawkish evangelicals baa baa baa-ing at trump’s bogus bone spurs? That’s who you are comparing me to? And have you any substance to your argument, or is it based solely on insults and geography?

Wow. Latin. And here I thought you couldn’t possibly become more irrelevant.

Hey. I looked it up, and it gets worse. It’s a cliche in Latin. Man, you really got this critical/creative writing thing down, don’t you? Just oodles of ethos ooozing out your ears.
