Everything the Right was HOPPING MAD ABOUT is mainstream AF now.

We were 100% gonna go to hell and take the country with us playing Dungeons & Dragons. Then Magic the Gathering made billions, Harry Potter became a theme park, there are six gaming cafes within biking distance and frickin' Hugh Grant is the bad guy in the new Dungions & Dragons movie.

We were 100% going to go to hell and take the country with us for smoking dope. Then California effectively legalized it, venture capitalists got rich, your mom revealed she'd been smoking indica on the side for 30 years and weed is legal in 23 states.

We were 100% going to go to hell and take the country with us for listening to Boy George.

We were 100% going to go to hell and take the country with us for playing video games.

We were 100% going to go to hell and take the country with us for listening to... I mean, look. Your Nana doesn't even realize how mad she was at that nice black man on her favorite cop procedurals.

This trans shit fucking sucks and it's stupid as hell and it's entirely because the Republican tribe has nothing but purity and cleanliness beefs as propagated by their failing, myopic mullahs. We're all dealing with an ideology in collapse and those always get uglier before they die out.
