You know, some people are born gay, some people are born bisexual. Some people are born asexual. And some people are born with the urge to slam new and unexplored vaginas without going through a messy divorce! Don’t be a bigot!
It infuriates me. The past couple years have been the first time I’ve felt ashamed about being gay since I graduated high school in the mid 00s. If someone compared “polyamory” to homosexuality back then, the “progressive” left would have called him a homophobe. Now, they’d praise him for his “tolerance.” It’s the same way that separate events for different races used to be considered segregation; but this summer, in Seattle, white “allies“ formed a human chain around a park space “reserved” for “people of color.”
It’s not a coincidence that all of this started around the same time as Black Lives Matter. In a 2015 video, Patrice Cullors said she and the other two organizers are
“trained Marxists” intent on “disrupt[ing] the Western-prescribed nuclear-family-structure requirement [sic].” A couple weeks ago, progressives mocked a speaker at the Republican National Convention for pointing it out, but anyone familiar with critical race theory, “queer” theory, and intersectional feminism knows Cullors really meant what she said.
If you’re not familiar with this stuff and want to learn more, read
The Victims’ Revolution by Bruce Bawer, a gay conservative commentator. It’s eye-opening. James Lindsay and Helen Pluckrose, two liberals, just released a new book,
Cynical Theories, on the same topic, but I haven’t read it yet.
Incidentally, Bawer, Andrew Sullivan, Jonathan Rauch, and other politically heterodox gay writers are the ones responsible for redirecting gay activists’ focus to marriage equality in the 90s, which
enraged radical leftists. (Google “same-sex marriage” and “cis gay white men” to see what I mean.) Nobody paid much attention to their criticism because they were holed up in obscure university departments.
