This is what it sounds like to me too. How did performance become our highest purpose?

Like wearing red, white and blue to prove you are patriotic. Performance patriotism

True. It's all performance and not all of it is new. But I think we need to pay attention to how performing is replacing rational solution-seeking in our culture.

So if I kayak and rock climb and don’t wear r/w/b it’s a performance? Because I didn’t go to a cookout?

Really?

Yep. The same virtue signalers continue to virtue signal. We will be celebrating the 4th like any other year - along with all the other normal people.

For those of us who are pet parents, the night can be practically unbearable as we witness our furry friends suffer horribly for hours.
Finally, as seen on this thread, many are still processing the demise of RvW so please be conscious of their suffering and anguish as well.

Sounds like you need to find a remote cabin in the woods for the sake of your neighborhood.

OMG, the above has got to be satire. I can't even...

You don’t get to tell others what to do.

Nope b.c you aren't a judge appointed by Presidents who lost the popular vote

Those judges haven't told anyone what to do or not do. They're (rightly) leaving those decisions up to the states' voters. You seem terribly uninformed.

Seriously. Whatever virtue signaling works for you, I guess.

We’re doing what we’ve always done. Zero fcks given.

Yep. "DS said there's nothing to celebrate this year." Well, does your son have a roof over his head? Is he healthy? Does he have a family that loves him? Does he have a dog? I think OP's number one priority should be teaching her children about gratitude & not virtue signaling / how to out-woke each other.

Exactly this. So much to be grateful for, it's very telling these twits can't manage that.

So you are ok overturning Obergfell, Griswold and Loving. Got it.

Then I just saw two social media posts about the same. One from a friend who said her family would be attending a protest at X location instead. Another from a friend who announced they were no longer celebrating and would be wearing black on that day instead.

I told my kids our plans got canceled and neither seemed to care. DS said there's nothing to celebrate this year. DD said wearing black is a trend that's going around on tictock along with not buying gas July 2 (or 3rd maybe?) and a women's strike.

So cool! Thx for spreading the word!

Omg moron those were all decided on the same justification that Roe was decided on- The Fourteenth Amendment. And Thomas said in the overturning of Roe that we need to look at Obergfell, Griswold and Lawrence. Not Loving b.c obviously he is married to a white woman...but it was decided by the Fourteenth and interracial marriage was not "deeply rooted" as a right for sure.

You have no freaking idea what a slippery slope this decision is

Nope. Most people seeking abortion already have kids.

This! I’ll be working the whole weekend. Literally praying for big orders. Please order from Instacart and tip large. Remember Instacart only pays shoppers $5-7 to shop your order. Please buy lots of hot dogs and buns, not 35pks of water. Happy 4th of July!
