As of yesterday, this NFL off-season has a tale of two kickers.

Now, everyone knows about Harrison Butker. Not everybody knows about Brandon McManus.

For those of you who don't know about McManus, he's facing a lawsuit from two flight attendants alleging sexual assault during the Jaguars' flights to London last season.

As of right now, the two stories of these two kickers couldn't be more different.

Of course, we know that Butker said what he said. That said, most people with their panties in a bunch about Butker only know a couple of snippets of what he said. The allegations against McManus are still simply that -- alleged. That's the only way that activists are going to be able to reconcile the widespread calls for Butker to lose his job for hurting their wittle feewings with what will be their complete dispassion and silence that they're bound to show in regard to McManus in the coming weeks.

Why am I so sure that that none of the people who were freaking out about Butker are going to say a damn thing about McManus? Why am I so sure that there won't be petitions to get McManus fired if the Commanders don't decide to do it themselves?

Well, compared to what happened with DeShaun Watson, the allegations against McManus are small beans. The left has already been way more freaked out about Butker that Watson. Yeah, people have shouted chants like, "You sick fuck" at Watson at games; but, those are the people who are big enough football fans to drop a few hundred bucks to go to a game -- namely, they're not purple-haired, liberal arts college student with hammer and sickle tattoos. The people freaking out about Butker span from a few people who suddenly gained a passive interest in football once Taylor Swift started dating Travis Kelce to people who just wait for the media to tell them what to be offended by today.

Of course, Matt Ariza has since been exonerated of any wrongdoing in his case; but, I didn't see a peep out of people who clearly aren't passionate about football in regard to the allegation that he was a participant in a gang rape. Granted, the Bills cut him without the public backlash; but, the Bills took more time to cut him than it took for the activists to put up their petition demanding that he Cheifs cut Butker.

Still, it goes deeper than this.

It's the left that's been demanding that we few speech as violence. Of course, it's also the left that's been saying that silence is violence. It's the left that wants micro aggressions to be acknowledged and for trigger warnings to be slapped on everything.

Harrison Butker showed himself to be the absolute worst of humanity that anybody can be -- a religious conservative.

To the radical left, that's worse than a guy who rubs his crotch against a couple of women against their will. Apparently that's worse than DeShaun Watson having more than two dozen cases of sexual misconduct and assault. Of course the left doesn't have any problem with the countless cases of NFL players sticking their unprotected dicks into a bunch of women fathering a lot of kids with a lot of women, and being nothing but a paycheck to the kids.

And, on that last point, a lot of these people won't even be paychecks to the kids. A lot of these players are piss poor at managing money and end up bankrupt. This has been happening for a long time. I'm not speculating.

Still, sex positivity, open relationships, promiscuity, and so-on are values championed by the left. I'm not telling any of you to stop believing in that way of life. Butker didn't tell you to stop believing that. He just expressed his values in the same way that you do every day.

Well, prove me wrong. If you signed on to the calls to get Butker cut from the Cheifs, start your change.org petition calling for the same to happen to McManus. At least you can show that your values aren't completely twisted.
