Since the advent of social media a few decades ago it hasn't taken long to see just how absurd the younger generation is when it comes to issues that don't matter.
Take the most recent example of Nike pulling the sale of the Betsy Ross Flag on the heel because their new marketing "poster boy" (otherwise known in corporate parlance as their P.R. guy) Colin Kaepernick expressed his feelings about it by saying that it was a symbol of oppression of a nation that had slaves. Paaaaleeeeze! What can't these people get over it? (The introductory statements by Don Henley are so appropriate regarding this phenom of the younger genearations. And, note the date!)
This tactic is a prime example of how liberals use social media to promote a meme that takes something - whatever it is - and treats it as though it suddenly matters. Such a tactic is how the liberals change the rules in the middle of a game to both confuse and retain control of the narrative for changing the culture to their own utopian perspective.
To illustrate just how absurd such a claim is, for those who've not seen this, you will laugh when viewing it. This link provides a January 2013 inaugural photo of the flags hung on the Congressional building for Pres. Obama's second term. Question: Why wasn't this offensive then? If it was offensive as a symbol, why didn't Obama's sycophants call it out? Better yet, why wasn't it taken down?
Comparing this with Nike's recalling the sale of their shoe that Colin found offensive illustrates just how absurd and petty our social mindset today has become... mainly because of how instantly a single individual can make a claim that is what amounts to a cultural "sucker punch", and how the liberals who are always looking for a way to bad mouth the country that's given them the best opportunity - which they don't even have the intelligence to realize is so - they could ever want out of all other countries of the world.
For another perspective on this issue - if you're not already up to your eyeballs on this idiotic topic - is found at Real Clear Politics.
