#or about quebec and france outlawing Visible Religious Expression That Conveniently Only Affects Non-Christians

It's ironic, because it is definitely coming from the anti-religion crowd, but when people are super fixated on someone confiscating or stealing FCG's coin, the thing it most reminds me of are when you hear from ex-fundamentalists whose parents took away or cut up their "satanic" emo t-shirts when they were teens. What's worse is I suspect it's actually coming from precisely those former teens, who have not realized that in adulthood they've become their parents just in the other direction, and that, but for an accident of sexuality, they would right now be a married Republican with a tween kid whom they would making as abjectly miserable as their parents once made them, because they never unlearned the behavior of "anything I think is bad is objectively dangerous and corrupting and should be destroyed", simply switched what they thought was bad.
