Delibrately spreading misinformation, Christian extremist Pat Robertson
discussed the Matthew Shepard & James Byrd, Jr. Hates Crimes
Prevention Bill on The 700 Club, saying “The noose has tightened around
the necks of Christians to keep them from speaking out on certain moral
issues.”
You know, they continue to equate “not being able to get away with being a hateful fuck without somebody calling me out on it” with “not being able to be a hateful fuck at all.” If there’s one thing that’s really starting to bother me lately it’s the implication that you’re oppressed because nobody laughs at your sexist, homophobic, racist jokes. The lamentation of this outside pressure that keeps us all from being the assholes we really are.
Political correctness is not preventing you from being a dick, it’s just changing the reception you get. You can keep speaking out all you want, Patsy. You can keep saying whatever regressive shit you want to say. It’s not tyranny if we don’t want to listen anymore.
