What Does It Even Mean To Be “Great” Anyway?

I normally don't like writing "Current Events" pieces (and greatly prefer focusing on what SEO grifters like to call "evergreen content"), but I feel this warrants it. Content warning: Violence, death, mentions of political extremism. What Does "Great" Mean? Imagining living under constant threats of having your house burned down for 2 years, because your neighbors hate that you and your spouse are both male.

@soatok It’s an illusion to a time when things where “great” where gays where still in the closet, women didn’t have that many rights, blacks where still segregated, and they could throw any one with mental issues into a institution for the rest of their life.

It has never been about bathrooms.
It is not about DEI being bad.

It’s about trying to go back to a time that didn’t exist.

@LoranSkunky Yes, but you can't shout someone into being disillusioned of a cult movement. You have to invite questions.
@soatok We’ll yes but it’s hard when they don’t want or listen or look at facts.
