We're promised that we will be persecuted for the faith. I long ago thought that with people who are obnoxious about their evangelism, this turned into a way of proving that they were doing the will of god. Instead of realizing that people hate them because they're obnoxious, they cite that verse about how the world will hate you. The new moral crusaders do exactly the same thing. They're obnoxious. When people get angry it's "fragile masculinity" or "white fragility"... and it's presented as proof, somehow, that what they're doing isn't obnoxious or hateful, but important and good.

Maria Schneider is grateful for that.

Or poking holes in their holey theory.
People who yell "Check your privilege" are like people who yell "God hates fags."
"Climate denier" same thing... "God hates fags."

Thanks, April.
Nicely done.
I'm sure being a cartoonist is competitive, but you have talent.
Stop paying attention to those people and they'll go away.
