Time Was II

Once I was a pacifist, I was an objector. 

A campaigning reformer, I was a protester.  

 

Now I’m a radical extremist and snowflake moaner. 

Mob rule wokeist, another social-justice warrior. 

 

Someone who’s made their point but won’t shut up. 

Prepared to tear society apart, a loon, and a zealot. 

 

An agitator and disrupter, someone who must be reined in. 

A danger to our way of life, the rising enemy within.

Thanks for the comment Stephen - I sure hope we get a bit of balance back into so much, real soon.

Thanks also for the likes from Hugh, Stephen A, Holden, Aisha, and John.

Illustrates perfectly how the goalposts are moving, John. Let's hope they move back one day.

A rewrite as this doesn't go away as a subject in the UK at the moment.
