“I’m a non-Christian living the South, I can’t even go to a god damn potluck without having to thank some space fairy for the broccoli casserole, and honey, it makes me a little uncomfortable.”
I’m WHEEZING.
This is me at every family gathering.
[audio transcription: *very heavy Southern accent* What’s
up, y’all. Trae Crowder, liberal redneck. Look, I wanna talk about a lotta
things, but this transgender bathroom deal just won’t go away, and you know it’s
gettin outta hand now ‘cuz we got white people boycotting Target. Goddamn,
never thought I’d see the day.
But yeah, sure enough the American Family Association in Mississippi
asked for a boycott of Target, and they got over 700,000 signatures, and I
guarantee you every one of them people’s so proud of themselves for making a
statement, too. Y’all ever notice how shitty white people get to protest stuff by
like going to Sears instead or eating two
chicken sandwiches this week? But yeah. Y’all are basically freedom riders.
God this gets my red up, man. Apparently the people signing
this petition are doing it because they don’t feel comfortable taking their
kids into Target now with their trans-friendly policy. Oh really y’all ain’t
comfortable? Yeah? Well if you’ll allow a rejoined so the hell what?
If my great-granny was still alive she wouldn’t be
comfortable eating cornbread next to a colored boy. Guess what. She’d have to
get her old ass over it. ‘Cuz it’s 2016, and that’s a shitty way to be.
And why should we care if you’re comfortable anyway? Have
you ever even thought about the comfort of gay people, black peop – hell, me. I’m a non-Christian living in the
South I can’t even go to a goddamn potluck without having to thank some space
fairy for the broccoli casserole, and honey? It makes me a little
uncomfortable. Have you ever cared? I’m
guessing not since Nancy Grace never had a hashtag about it.
But now you ain’t comfortable so you’re screaming “we gotta
boycott Target” *mocking noises*. Well shit.
I hope you realize that Target ain’t even gonna think about giving a damn. Target would love for you to waddle your hateful ass over to Walmart, that’s
where all the Duck Dynasty shit is anyway. Target don’t want you, American
Family Association – which, lastly, fuck
that name. You don’t speak for my family. I got two little boys, man, and I’ve
actually thought about the possibility of one of them being gay or transgender
and how I would feel if I knew they had to face the shit that y’all put people through for the sake of your comfort. And it pisses me off. So
stop trying to pass your bigotry off as a family issue because, speaking as a
father, that’s bullshit.
And fuck Nancy Grace, too.]
