I& #39;m getting sick of the whole cancel culture trope from conservatives.

For centuries in this country the conquerers have written the history and controlled the narrative... Hell, even the losers (re: Confederacy) put up monuments and controlled the narrative. https://twitter.com/TarynStanford/status/1286679379053932544">https://twitter.com/TarynStan...
As a tri-racial member (European, Indigenous and African heritage) of the LGBTQ+ community (trans and bi), I& #39;ve never fit into the conquerer& #39;s narrative.

I& #39;ve endured open racism and transphobia for simply existing.

Now we hear conservative descendents of those conquerers...
...bemoan their inability to express their beliefs now because of shift in culture.

I have endured their beliefs for decades and there was little I could do about it.

I& #39;m thrilled that we are starting to discard the relics and beliefs of the past. To forge a more...
...equal and inclusive culture.

People are free to hold whatever beliefs they want - I no longer feel compelled to listen to or accept them as shared history or accepted practice / beliefs.

Life evolves, culture evolves...
David Brooks along with many others cling to what they saw as normalcy or accepted. Things that I thought were neither normal nor acceptable.

Move forward and evolve or step aside and enjoy extinction.
