Culture-war Quote by Anonymous @AnonymousLyWise
““The right-wing culture-war mentality is a political distraction used by the right-wing talking heads to manipulate their voters. But if you wanna truly stop a right-wing ideology you must replace it with a better ideology! Oppressing an ideology makes it stronger. But give people a better option and you can replace it permanently. You don't want respect! You want representation! ...Asking for respect will never get you any respect at all. But seeking and demanding representation will give you self-respect and the true respect you deserve.””
