For all the oppressing they do against pretty much every conceivable minority, white Republicans are, if nothing else, extremely desperate to be oppressed themselves. Or, at least, desperate to appear oppressed and persecuted in an effort to garner more attention for themselves.
Now, we all know damn well and good that your average white, evangelical GOPer wouldn’t know real, true oppression if it smacked them upside the head. Frankly, they wouldn’t be able to survive a fraction of the true struggles minorities have genuinely faced in their lives. But we also know just as well that none of those facts will do anything to staunch these people from whining and crying at the top of their lungs about how “mistreated” they are.
And if anyone is leading that pack of over-privileged white people with an oppression fetish, it’s Marjorie Taylor Greene.
The Georgia Republican senator has pretty much devoted her life to making people feel sorry for her because other people are “mean” to her.
To hear her tell it, she’s really got a rough life on the farm, folks.

Recently, the GOP stooge made yet another appearance on Alex Jones’s InfoWars where she immediately did what she does best — whine.
“It just bothers me so much,” Greene boo-hoo’d on the Right-wing conspiracy theorist’s podcast. “They treat me as if I’m some kind of crazy person – like I have 3 horns coming out of my head. But what they don’t understand is, they’re the ones that are crazy.”

I’ll give you three guesses as to how the comments went, but truthfully, you’ll only need one:

If she knew she wasn’t crazy this wouldn’t bother her.

I’m so happy I have been calling her Margie three horns, and she has now told us she hates it. pic.twitter.com/JlVicvaF7a

Saying this with a big InfoWars sign behind you is a choice.

Girlfriend, I’m of the belief that we don’t yuck anyone’s yum, provided that it’s not hurting anymore. But the oppression fetish is TIRED AF.
