Dumbest News of the Week

Religious fundamentalists take over knitting website, announces ban of all heretics:

According to an announcement at Ravelry’s website, “We are banning support of Donald Trump and his administration on Ravelry.” The company says the ban was inspired by a policy at role-playing site RPG.net.

The ban includes “support in the form of forum posts, projects, patterns, profiles, and all other content.” The company assures users that if they get booted from the site for supporting Trump, “we will make sure that you have access to your data.” How good of them.

The reason for the ban, according to Ravelry, is that “We cannot provide a space that is inclusive of all and also allow support for open white supremacy. Support of the Trump administration is undeniably support for white supremacy.”

As proven by noted White Supremacists Kanye West, Candace Owens and Diamond and Silk, just to name a few of those 60 million “undeniably white supremacist Trump supporters” out there.

At this point it’s safe to say that any attempt by anybody to convince anybody else that “progressivism” is anything other than a severe mental disorder coupled with religious fanaticism should be met with all of the dignity that it deserves.

If it’s even possible to laugh that loudly.

Thatisall.
