“Silence is violence!” bark the moonbats. This means that it is not enough not to say anything they disagree with. You have to actively spout their dogma if you don’t want to be canceled. Just keeping your head down is not an option — even if you are probably the greatest quarterback of all time. Take it from USA Today, which excoriates Tom Brady for the thought crime of having no thoughts he cares to share with the press on the topic of politics.

Brady has expressed support in the past for his golfing buddy Donald Trump. Nowadays, Brady is keeping a low profile on anything political, which is understandable, considering that the establishment is out for blood. People suspected of being among the 74 million who voted to reelect Trump are having their lives destroyed by vindictive liberals who hold all the levers of power.

The left-wing piranhas comprising the media would love for Brady to denounce his friend, so they could revel in his submission and humiliation. They wouldn’t mind for him to defend Trump, so they could feature Brady for the Two Minutes Hate. But just keeping his mouth shut on the grounds that athletes should not have to justify their political views to ideological bullies is not acceptable. So USA Today attacks in the most vicious way liberals can conceive of: by denouncing him for being Caucasian.

The Make America Great Again hat in his locker, the flippant endorsement of then-presidential candidate Donald Trump. Only when those ties became inconvenient did Brady decide he wanted to “stick to sports,” and that he preferred to be a beacon of positivity rather than delve into society’s thorny ills.

How mighty white of him.

This is a racial issue. Because everything is a racial issue with the woke media lynch mob.

Brady’s ability to enter and exit the debate at his choosing, to shield himself from accountability, is the height of white privilege. As this country grapples with the far reaches of systemic racism, look no further than Brady, for whom the expectations, and allowances granted, will always be different [because he is white].

Systemic racism. White privilege. Catastrophic anthropogenic global warming. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we really didn’t have any problems, so we had the luxury of fretting over problems that do not exist?
