  • Ah, the classic reverse uno card. Making flies into elephants and elephants into flies. I don’t see you able to really engage with event scenarios or facts without applying this or that label to it. Us. vs. Them thinking. Get out of that habit. Truly intelligent people don’t need labels to describe people or situation. There are plenty enough words in the English language to describe people in a host of more colorful and derogatory language than Christian, conservative, and neo-nazi, which are all apparently the same thing to you. lol. Good day to you kiddo.







  • False take. Calling anyone who is white and male, “right-wring” is sort of the go-to for transactivists and their often louder “allies.” But it’s always the transtactic that when faced with a particularly damning fact or allegation, you must attempt to deflect it with all sorts of whataboutisms, and when that fails, to simply make elephants into flies and handwave it away like it was never really a big deal. Look, you are probably pretty young, liberal minded and in college. Virtue signaling the way a good woke academic indoctrination mill wants you to. But until you put your thinking cap on, you are not going to see or think clearly. Especially if your defacto response to any kind of alarming information is to pick a side, or dig your heels in even further. But also, villifying people as must belonging to some conservative or Christian faction because they are the only ones who could possibly be opposed to the evils being perpetuated is sort of laughable and shows how disconnected you are from reality. I don’t need to be a conservative Christian to agree that mutilating children is wrong.


  • No. And I know that isn’t the case because I was a part of that conversation when that was the focus of the conversation. Yes we had rightful pushback from conservatives. And you know what? We understood. We got that marriage was their institution, but gays wanted the benefits that other married couples got to enjoy too, without imposing on their religious beliefs. It was a tough fight all over the world, and fair minded conservatives did see reason enough to draw distinctions between general marriage, civil unions, partnerships and a host of other kinds of relationships that fall outside of normative Christian values.

    In many of the places and states in which such legal unions were secured, there were over a subsequent number of years more and more public support for just legalizing gay marriage altogether. For conservatives this was sort of a slap because many thought they had made it clear that marriage was their institution, and in some ways they were right to feel that way, but also they needed to recognize the ways in which marriage had evolved outside of their institution.

    This is not the same thing happening with transactivism today. They are using the guise of equality and compassion to mask a much more sinister agenda. And if you aren’t capable of seeing that yet, then we are not on the same page.





  • You actually have no idea what you are talking. I know you think you do. But you don’t. You think because you tune into Fox news, and maybe even read a couple 4chan threads, googled QAnon conspiracis, that you understand what’s going on. But you actually don’t. And here’s how I know you don’t. You’re still focused on Trump. If you had any idea of what was really going on, Trump would be the least and last of our worries. And may in fact, be the thing we actually need. That I am an independent saying that, is probably one of the most bizarre and downright insensible things I would have accused myself of saying 2 years ago. I’ve gotten wiser to what’s going on since. And so should you.
