Bastard Freedom waves Her fustian flag in mockery over slaves.

Bastard Freedom waves Her fustian flag in mockery over slave

Summary

This quote criticizes the concept of freedom and its hypocritical implementation in society. It suggests that although freedom is often celebrated and held as a symbol of progress and equality, it is often used as a tool to oppress and mock those who are marginalized or enslaved. The phrase "Bastard Freedom" implies that the notion of freedom can be distorted, misused, or granted selectively, making it an inadequate and ironic representation of true liberation for all individuals.

I don't really talk about it that often, because there's too much talk in the world. Especially with Christians, there's more proselytizing than there is actual living proof of it. That's kind of sad.

Even as we enumerate their shortcomings, the rigor of raising children ourselves makes clear to us our mothers' incredible strength. We fear both. If they are not strong, who will protect us? If they are not imperfect, how can we equal them?
