I have no idea who wrote this but it fits well for me

"

I used to be a normal person.
As an individual, I used to think I was pretty much just a regular person, but I was born white, into a two-parent, two-gender household which now, whether I like it or not, makes me "Privileged", a racist and responsible for slavery.
I am fiscal and moral, which by today's standards, makes me a fascist because I plan, budget and support myself.
I went to school, worked my way “up the ladder”, and have always held a job. But I now find out that I am not here because I earned it, but because I was "advantaged”.
I am heterosexual, which according to "gay" folks, now makes me homophobic.
I am not a Muslim, which now labels me as an infidel.
I am older than 60, making me a useless person who doesn't understand Facebook, Instagram or Twitter.
I think and I reason, and I doubt much of what the "mainstream" BBC and SKY media tells me, which makes me a "Right-wing conspiracy nut”.
I am proud of my heritage and our inclusive culture, making me a xenophobe.
I believe in hard work, fair play, and fair compensation according to each individual's merits, which today makes me an anti-socialist.
I believe our system guarantees freedom of effort - not freedom of outcome or subsidies which must make me a borderline sociopath.
I believe in the defence and protection of my country for and by all citizens, now making me a militant.
I am proud of our flag, what it stands for and the many who died to let it fly, so I stand during our National Anthem - so I must be a racist.
Please help me come to terms with the new me because I'm just not sure who I am anymore!
If all this nonsense wasn't enough to deal with, now I don't even know which toilet to use… and I have to go more FREQUENTLY"

Hate to heap more failings on us but it did not address that we are males so we are also misogynists 🙄

What a load of crap! Who says such things and how stupid are you to take any notice?

I think it says a lot about anyone who agrees or spreads this kind of rubbish. Not the sort of post that should be on this usually good forum.

I think you can either agree or disagree with the original quote, but in my opinion there is a lot of truth in what was written.

Maybe the original post should have been put in the Fun, Banter and Chat Section.
