This pretty well covers the gamut of changes that have taken place.
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, paid my way thru college, earned a degree, &
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 according to CNN makes me a de facto
member of the "vast NRA gun lobby”
I am older than 60, making me a useless person who doesn't understand Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.
I think & I reason, and I doubt much of what the "mainstream" 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.
If all this nonsense wasn't enough to deal with, now I don't even know which restroom to use!
