Ever get the feeling that some people, reeeeeaally, really want to feel like a soldier?

I think on some deeply buried level that they daren't show, some of these human wrecks on the right carry a terrible sense of personal shame...

2. I'm starting to think there is a war on izzybeans.
This is no more paranoid than John Gibson's War on Christmas and all its variants.

12. I wondered, but foolishly parsed the subject and your name simultaneously.

So didn't notice it. Sorry.

"War on <insert identity>!" should be printed up and sold as T-shirts IMO.

15. Sounds good to me.
Identity politics was going to experience this type of backlash at some point.

18. A pity, in a way. But, hey, every product has its life cycle.

Identity politics was getting silly.

11. AAH! FEAR! War on Anthropomorphised Cartoon cows ESPECIALLY!

This is turning into a Lounge thread, really, isn't it?

Oh, the waving. How will I sleep? Oh, guilt, guilt... you FIEND. Isn't the War on Cows hard enough? I won't be fooled by your devious pro-cow propaganda! And neither will America, buddy! It WON'T. FLY.

13. Yes, some people want to feel like soldiers, and the easiest way to
do it is by declaring war on something that can't fight back.

16. Sigh, yes. What's WRONG with these poor fools?

Isn't the beautiful Spring sunshine enough to make them feel sexy and proud? Have they no children? Can they take no pleasure in the ordinary goodness of doing a useful job well? No. Mind games only, that's all they care about.
