I used to think I was pretty much just a “normal” person, but I was born white, into a two-parent household which now, whether I like it or not, makes me privileged, a racist, and responsible for slavery.

 I am a fiscal and moral conservative, which by today's standards, makes me a fascist because I plan, budget, and support myself.

 I worked through college 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 70, making me a useless dinosaur who doesn't understand Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or Snapchat.

 I think I reason, and I doubt most of what the ‘mainstream’ 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 reward 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 defense and protection of my nation 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 radical. Strange thing, it all took place over the last decade.
