Is the Woke Left worse than the Religious Right? -

[Mr. ShadowCreek]

I remember as a kid how the big people on the religious right tried to take control. They tried to ban violent video games because they thought they kids who played them would become serial killers. They tried to ban Harry Potter because it "encouraged" witchcraft. They tried to ban art that they deemed offensive such as Robert Mapplethorpe. Before that they deemed rock and roll and metal as satanic. They lost their shit when the Beatles said they were "bigger than Jesus.". The media and Hollywood loved making fun of it parodying it on SNL and whatever else. They were active during the Clinton and much of the Bush years. I think they started dying off near the end of Bush's second term or Obamas first. Now they're a shell of their former selves. Now it's all mirrored. Today, it's the left going around trying to ban everything and change it to their liking. There are book bans, statues taken down, and remaking movies and shows with woke messages. The funny thing is that all these people act like the religious right is still in power. That they're going around forceing their opinions everywhere. I think a lot of these woke people came from religious right families growing up and wanted to rebel against it. They told their parents they didn't want to be like them. Funny enough they did become them. Maybe it's true that no matter how hard you try you'll become your parents. Hollywood seems to be the same and doesn't see the irony of it. Despite the religious right now being relevant in over a decade now they act like it's still 2000 when it comes to them. Even with them losing power and not being as around do you think they are worse, just as bad, or they don't compare with the woke left.

if i see retards bring up this trite shit again i'm going to bash my head into a wall, ok cool puritanism bad.

last I checked the religious right were mostly localized in rural areas and were just soccermoms and oppurtunists.
Millenials just remember things exageratly through the eyes of a child and zoomers didn't actually live through it and only know hearsay.
Both extremes are still controlled by the neocons/neolibs as political quota to keep a status quo.

The religious right was awesome.
People be like, "you can't enforce morality on people!!!!" But they did, and so long as the civilization exists they will do again. Literally, for 3000 years we had it wrong, but ever since the 1980s we've found the light! They were just doing it wrong for 3000 years. You're literally retarded if you think we've figured it out. We figured out morality 2020 years ago, everything else is just a footnote.

I often wonder if the woke left will ever fade away into the night, despite a lot of people claiming that it is now (or will become) the "new normal", although I doubt that the religious right will ever come back, at least in my lifetime. Despite the permafried wokies crying on reddit and twitter about the evil white Christians, most white people are de facto agnostic or atheistic, and I don't see that changing.

Do you actually believe that we will return to 1980-2001 style politics?

No clue, to be honest.

The thing about Millenials/Zoomers is that their life was/is cushy and worry-free that they got bored (or brainwashed if they went to a university) and wanted to be a part of "something", regardless of what it was. Majority of the dumb shit that's happened in the 2010s was because of these fuckers and the rise of Social Justice Warriors.

Also the religious right wasn't shoving their shit in cartoons/videogames like the woke left did and still does to this day. Wisdom Tree was in their little corner making shitty unlicensed nintendo games, but other than that, the video game industry was actively removing any depiction of religion in any video game (for example, crosses were verboten, the name Satan had to be changed to Dark Prince, etc...).

What religious right? All I see is a corrupt, zogged, and pozzed GOP that doesn't even "conserve" anything.

the current rightwing grifters like Milo and Fuentes seem to be grooming a generation of kids to become the next generation of fundamentalist from the look of it, just gonna be a cycle for as long as the powers of above can maintain optimism on the populace that maybe just maybe they're get a based win or some shit.

Yeah but maybe their parents forced them to watch the Veggie Tales, Superbook and Gerbert, so that means it must be super bad orwellian censorship. but They're not doing the same, oh no. they're just promoting "being a decent human being"(notice how they always say human instead of person) and they know they're right just because they are.

Religious Right: Piss and moan about Jesus not being taught in school. No real power after the Satanic Panic; just grousing about evolution, not understanding the Establishment Clause, maybe the occasional abortion clinic bombing.
Wanted to shuffle kids into Sunday School.

Woke Left: Piss and moan about BIPOC/LGBT not being represented enough. Still possesses political capital yet too impotent to use it; just grousing about microagressions, not understanding the system of checks and balances, maybe the occasional fiery, but mostly peaceful prostest.
Wants to shuffle kids into HRT/puberty blockers and reassignment surgeries.

It's like poetry, it rhymes.
