Decades? Try centuries.
A god damned millenia.
Two god damned millennia.
why is god damming us for so long?! /s
All of written history TBH. Other religions did the same thing before Christianity.

Just 2 centuries around here having inquisition in place made sure no other alternatives exist nowadays. Genocide is effective kids. Learn from History.
Cancelling, try torture and butchering.
Anyone up for some D&D?
For anyone who isn’t aware of the Satanic Panic, this was a pretty fun time to be a D&D player:

I believe the culture war junk is part of distract and divide tactics. ‘hey parents don’t worry about all the bloodshed from neoliberal policies, your kids are summoning demons!’

I love that there’s a reference to the Tom Hanks classic Mazes and Monsters in there.
Funny thing about the eighties. I was absolutely forbidden from playing dungeons and dragons but was totally allowed to play wizardry, Ultima, and bards tale.
Explain that parental logic.
I do feel I missed out. Never did get to play the real deal.
I think tabletop gaming and D&D are having a renaissance in recent years - I bet you could find folks to play with easier than you think.
I haven’t played in decades myself, but my son does, and so does a good friend of mine (who is even older than me) and his kids, and seemingly half the people I know.
I would theoretically love to play, but I have other life circumstances that have required me to cut gaming time of any kind to 0 for awhile.
You should give it a shot if you can!

That’s been on my rewatch list for awhile. I don’t think I’ve seen it since it was new. One of these days… :)
Man, my friend got all his D&D stuff taken away in 1984, he bought new stuff and left it at my house, which was fine by me as he said I could use it even if he wasn’t around.
Only if we can listen to a Judas Priest record backwards.

Wait until they go broke buying trump bibles only to bemoan the lack of social welfare and health programs they continually try to kill.
If there’s anything Suzerain taught me over the last few days it’s that sometimes you have to pull an Urdnot Wrex and drag the ignorant forward before their own short sighted self interest gets everyone killed.
Yes I really enjoyed making two video game references lol
No, it’s “shunning” when they do it. It’s “cancel culture” when other people do it.
Proper manipulation of language is key to fighting a culture war.
Never mind Christians- long before this “cancel culture” bullshit started, Republicans were perfectly happy to censor the Dixie Chicks and basically destroy their careers because they dared to criticize George W. Bush.
I’ve never heard any of them say that was wrong of them, just that cancel culture is the worst thing ever.
Decades? Millennia!
Why yes, cancelling, shunning, etc is bad.
A perfect meme!
Real
Burned heretics
Actually, everybody complains about cancel culture. And Christians.
