Fundamentalist Christians were the original prigs. It is amusing to see pg try and shoehorn the word on to the social justice movement.

I don't disagree, but I do think it's important to note whether the person is mocking the southern accent or just imitating it as a form of flattery. Often it's the former rather than the latter. The (vast) majority of the time I hear someone doing a southern accent it's for purposes of making fun of them, especially for being stupid/redneck. I don't think it's unreasonable to be offended when somebody is mocking you.

Graham’s point, generously, is you’ll always have pearl-clutching prigs. What matters is if they’re empowered.

> are very sensitive if you talk about their way of life or say anything that can be interpreted as anti-Christian

But they haven’t—until recently—had the power to e.g. end someone’s career or ability to perform in New York or San Francisco over it.
