[lbo-talk] Demonising normal behaviors

[boddi satva]

I get into my car, drive to downtown Seattle, well-satisfied that I am
not driving underneath the appallingly expensive Monorail the voters
rejected. I go into Tully's and get a coffee that is not absolutely
guaranteed to be shade-grown organic picked by union workers. There I
pick up a Financial Times and look in the currencies section.

"Damn," I say. "Where the hell is M3?"

The barista asks me what I said and I look up and notice that she is
young and beautiful with big breasts, showing a lot of cleavage.
Reflexively, I smile at her.

To my lefist friends I am an anti-gay, misogynist sexist, an apologist
for Supply-Siders who are actually Crypto-Keyenesians. I am intent on
destroying the environment and perpetuating the economic slavery of
the third world. Moreover, I am a tax-hating Republican who doesn't
understand the need for public transit.

All this and I thought I was just on my way to meet my buddy from the
Green Party to encourage him to run for City Council.

It is very demanding to be on the Left.
