Paxism is often seen as a conservative chauvinistic, xenophobic, misogynistic, transphobic, and homophobic religion. But, that’s not true. Packilvania as the largest Paxist country is a patriarchal society. Given its political and economic significance, it has given the impression that the version of Paxism that they subscribe to is the same as that observed by people of other countries. But that’s not the entire picture.
I am a citizen of Free Pax States. My ancestors have lived here for centuries. My grandparents and great grandparents fought for the unification of Free Pax States and for the proliferation of democratic, egalitarian, and liberal values. Like our relatives in Packilvania, we speak Packilvanian and eat Pax Fruites and we believe in Paxism. We believe in Noi and Pax and we follow the path of Assimilation. Unlike Packilvania, Assimilation does not mean bringing other nations under your political control or endorsing strict and problematic values emanating from the state. Instead, it means cultivating a personal relationship with our deity. It means showing compassion for others and striving to be your true self.
That’s why I can express myself in ways that Paxists in Packilvania might find appalling. I have tattoos and I’m not afraid of showing my body. Moreover, I’m not scared of loving who I choose and identifying in a way that feels natural to me. I’m sad for the people in Packilvania who see Assimilation as oppressive and resist it in their hearts. I am also sad for people in other nations who misconstrue what assimilation is all about and what Paxism means.
In his recent interview, Prince Kujil said that he would not dignify queerness which he described as “morally debased”. All I have to say to him and other bigots like him is Blessed Assimilation and F*** you
