imposing unfreedom in the name of freedom

is dripping with hipocrisy
and I am speaking of and from many places
the ban on burqa in France
the communist name calling in Little Saigon
the we are a country of free religion but our president has to be Christian  US
the if your husband cheats on you you need to be a better woman Vietnam

hypocrisy has no boundaries
the true transnational, international, globalized phenomenon
an euphemism for the prevailing, continuing, overwhelming
patriarchal, sexist, racist global society we call the civilized world
and they would tell me I need to calm down

when my tears fall down I am too emotional
when I scream in protest I am unreasonable
when I say it's wrong I am not logical

but since when is telling people they have only
one way to live
or one way to love
or one way to be
freedom

i like this. it's true. You're only free to follow the mass. Otherwise, you're just a cult
