No one–and I mean NO ONE–does a rant like Mordant. I’ve come to the realization that I need to be a bit picky about what I quote from her, or else I’ll wind up just copying her every post.
Target du jour: Straight Pride… in which our young author goes to town on the web site of a moronic clothing line (I will not honor it with a link here) that attempts to counterbalance the awful threat to civilization posed by *gasp* Gay Pride.
What you people need is a minority group that really can kick your collective buttocks. What you people need is mutants. I want there to be mutants. I’m not talking sappy little Jean Grey type mutants, all schnooglies and light– I want kickass Magneto-type mutants!
To add in my two cents (if there’s any room left in the piggy bank after she’s done), there is something quite pathetic about someone who feels the need to counter minority bigotry and hatred with a plea for pity.
Oh, poor me! The blacks are getting all uppity. Boo hoo! Women want the same rights as me. Wah! Gays don’t want to be killed for being different. What do I do? I’m being discriminated against, too, you know!
I’m not saying that the pendulum doesn’t sometimes swing back too far and thwack somebody upside their rich, white, male head. But compared to what these people go through every frickin’ day, I’ll “suffer” through an over-the-top gay pride parade.
And like it.
