This IS a culture war – Riffing of Skip’s rant last night: “The Progressive Purificationist Hangman”, I compared the the encroachment of the totalitarian left upon out culture and morality with the verse by Niemoller:
First they came for the societal issues, but I didn’t speak up, for it didn’t affect me.
Then they came for the freedom of religion, but I didn’t speak up for I wasn’t religious.
Then they came for the moral standards, but I didn’t speak up because I only cared about fiscal issues.
Finally they came for my right to life, but there was no moral compass left to judge them.
Apologies to Niemoller for the mangling, but folks, it is time to wake up and push back on the moral relativsm combined with absolute intolerance on the part of the Progressive Left.
