The Unhinged Left

Every day seems to bring new instances of “peak woke insanity.”

The pressure leftists feel when they get up in the morning to be even more insane than the day before must be absolutely incredible.  Because somehow, they manage to do it.  Every day seems to bring new instances of “peak woke insanity.” 
 
For example, after the horrific shooting at Michigan State University, many Americans instinctively offered prayers for the victims and those impacted by this senseless act of violence. 
 
But one liberal politician lashed out in an “official statement,” saying, “F— your thoughts and prayers…  Thoughts and prayers without action and change are meaningless.”  He went on to demand immediate gun control legislation.  Just another example of the left’s growing hostility toward faith and guns.
 
More laws restricting your Second Amendment rights won’t make any difference because left-wing, Soros-funded prosecutors aren’t enforcing the laws we already have.
 
Here’s another example. 
 
When a pro-family organization promoted the benefits of the traditional, nuclear family (a married mother and father raising children), a left-wing politician attacked the organization as an “extremist group,” and claimed it was advocating “dangerous and un-American beliefs.”
 
What’s “extreme” and “dangerous” is what’s happening today in many public schools.  Students are being “transitioned” by teachers and school administrators without their parents knowledge, often with horrific consequences. 
 
What’s “un-American” is that “public school groomers” are covering up sexual assaults and threatening to put parents in jail for not “affirming” a child’s confusion.  Meanwhile, Christian teachers, who support parents by resisting these insane policies, are the ones getting fired.  That’s un-American!
 
And then there’s the constant left-wing assault on free speech.  A group of scientists – and I use that term loosely – recently decided that some words are just so offensive they have to be banned.  Here some examples of these “harmful terms” and the suggested alternatives: 
 
Man – Sperm producer
Woman – Egg producer
Male/Female – Human / XX or XY individual
Mother/Father – Parent / Egg-donor / Sperm-donor
Alien – Non-indigenous species
 
This is being done in order to avoid “emphasizing hetero-normative views,” presumably because many on the left no longer find heterosexuality to be normal.
 
In much the same way that the loony left is losing people like Bill Maher, evolutionary biologist and professional atheist Richard Dawkins rejected this nonsense, saying:
 
“I shall continue to use every one of the prohibited words. I am a professional user of the English language…  I am not going to be told … which words of my native language I may or may not use.”
