Quote of the Day

From A Gay Pride Parade for Bigots

“The final insult to oppressed people, is always to make them responsible for the venal stupidity of their oppressors. The bigots core refrain is never “I hate you,” but “Why are you making me hate you?” Left unsaid in all this is why, precisely, some guy in San Fran wearing a thong is so offensive. Instead it asks gay people everywhere to adjust. It’s not enough to be hated by the homophobe, now you must wash his laundry too.” — Ta-Nehisi Coates
