Let’s play the most popular game in America right now!!! Oppressor or oppressed. Where you have to figure out, based on subtle clues, who is the oppressor and who is the oppressed?
Oppressor or oppressed?
You guessed it. Oppressor!!!! The Church is, of course, the oppressor. This little arson is just another example of speaking truth to power with some kindling. That’s all.
OK, now for the next one.
Is the LGBT community the oppressor or the oppressed?
Correct!!!! They are the oppressed!!!! Despite having the support of the media and virtually everyone with access to any meaningful lever of power, they are the oppressed!!!!
Let’s try another one.
Here you have a little political speech on the door of an organization that lies to women. Are crisis pregnancy centers oppressed or oppressors?
Correct!!!! They are oppressors. Gee, you’re getting good at this. Despite having their free speech legislated away and being mocked and ridiculed by the media at every turn, pro-lifers are the oppressors because they want women to carry their babies to term. I know, right?
OK. Let’s try one that’s a little more complicated. Shall we?
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence does everything they can to mock the Catholic Church. They’ve even interrupted Mass. Along with their allies in the media they bullied the LA Dodgers into honoring them recently. The White House even hired Sam Brinton who used to help lead the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence in DC, as their nuclear waste commissioner. OK, so which are they? Oppressor or oppressed?
They are….OPRESSED!!!!! Of course. You see, it wasn’t all that complicated.
Thank you for joining us in playing the most popular game in America today.
