The LGBT Movement is the New Fascism. Conform or Else! (Part 1)

Posted on April 16, 2014 in Marriage by

fascismThere has been only one event recently (okay, within the last two weeks) absurd enough to make conservatives, liberals and homosexuals lash out in “disgust” and anger. For good reason each party has correctly summarized what has taken place and communicated the detriment it will have on society and liberty.

That even is the firing – I mean resignation of Brendan Eich as the CEO of Mozilla.

I’ve watched this fiasco unfold with interest because of the implications it poses for everyday Americans. Brendan Eich likely will not face financial ruin as a result of his resignation. I have a feeling he is doing pretty good financially. But the example set by the homosexual fascists that ensured his firing will be felt by those willing to speak up but not willing to lose their job. That’s of greater concern.

Newt Gingrich has dubbed this the “new fascism” and said:

“This is just the most open, blatant example of the new fascism, which says if you don’t agree with us 100%, we have the right to punish you, unless you’re like Hillary [Clinton] and Barack Obama, and you recant.”

Oh yeah, that’s right. Just a few years ago our very own President Obama was opposed to same-sex “marriage.” He was elected the first time with that belief. I don’t recall a mass opposition to his campaign from homosexuals who thought his position was worthy of losing his job. Could it be that Obama’s “position” was a campaign tactic and homosexuals knew it and were willing to “suffer” in order to get him elected? That’s a great question someone should ask.

Apparently you can oppose same-sex “marriage” and be president you just can’t do so and work for Mozilla. And let’s not forget that at the time Eich made his contribution to the Prop 8 campaign, circa 2008, a majority of Californians and Americans held the same position. So President Obama can oppose same-sex “marriage” but eventually “evolve,” and keep his job; but Eich must be terminated.

Surprisingly, very liberal host Bill Maher said “I think there is a gay mafia. I think if you cross them, you do get whacked. I really do.” You know you’ve crossed a line when the likes of Bill Maher is angry. Maher is not the most surprising liberal voice in this conversation though.

Openly gay journalist Andrew Sullivan blasted the people responsible for harassing Eich in a blog post before he posted a second article continuing hi angry tirade. Sullivan said:

“The guy who had the gall to express his First Amendment rights and favor Prop 8 in California by donating $1,000 has just been scalped by some gay activists…Will he now be forced to walk through the streets in shame? Why not the stocks? The whole episode disgusts me — as it should disgust anyone interested in a tolerant and diverse society. If this is the gay rights movement today…then count me out. If we are about intimidating the free speech of others, we are no better than the anti-gay bullies who came before us.”

Ouch, that has to hurt homosexual activists that were thrilled with the outcome of their gestapo tactics. For Sullivan, widely considered the intellectual father of the same-sex “marriage” movement, and a top advocate and activist for homosexual rights, to openly and angrily blast the actions of his own party means it’s time for the homosexual army to stop marching and start listening.

But Sullivan has a valid point that needs considered. If Eich is worthy if firing, oops, I mean resignation, over his private donation to a campaign, also called free speech, why not everyone else? Why not hunt down and publicly shame and ruin every other person that dared make a donation to Prop 8? Why single out one lone contributor, surely they all must be punished for daring to exercise free speech and divergent thought?

Fox News writer Todd Starnes urges the reasonable voices in the homosexual movement to reign in the militant screamers before it’s too late.

“I trust there are rational and reasonable individuals within the gay rights community who understand the dangers of stifling free speech and expression. But the voices that are winning the day are those who believe gay rights trump everyone else’s rights.”

Therein lies the problem. At one time this very well may have been about rights. It may have been about equality it may have been sincere. Today that is simply not the case. This is no longer about equality, this is about elevating the “rights” of homosexuals above those of everyone else. They see their ultimate goal as being elevated to the place that if anyone dare intimate that homosexuality is wrong they must be eliminated, ruined.

To say this is about tolerance, diversity, and equality is a farce. No one seriously speaking in this discussion actually believes that anymore. There is a mountain of evidence, freshly topped with Brandon Eich’s body that proves this is about compelling everyone to support and celebrate homosexuality. Those that thought passive resistance and silence were the best option will now learn what that failing strategy produces: a victory for your opposition that results in your own demise.

An article at The Atlantic makes the common sense argument that no one should have to worry about losing their job for exercising their rights as a private citizen:

“Calls for [Eich’s] ouster were premised on the notion that all support for Proposition 8 was hateful, and that a CEO should be judged not just by his or her conduct in the professional realm, but also by political causes he or she supports as a private citizen…It isn’t difficult to see the wisdom in inculcating the norm that the political and the professional are separate realms, for following it makes so many people and institutions better off in a diverse, pluralistic society. The contrary approach would certainly have a chilling effect on political speech and civic participation, as does Mozilla’s behavior toward Eich.”

The article goes on to ponder what liberals would have done if a CEO was fired for making a donation AGAINST Prop 8 rather than in favor. Obviously there would have been rioting in the streets and gnashing of teeth for such a horrific sin. Liberals would have argued that a CEO is not judged on what he or she does as a private citizen, especially in respect to exercising their rights, but their merits as a CEO.

Oops. I guess those argument only apply if you are a liberal standing up for liberal policies. If you are conservative standing up for conservative policies you now live under another set of criteria that includes being fired for exercising your rights. If you don’t believe this hypocrisy exists, ask yourself why Alec Baldwin is sill getting jobs…anywhere! Baldwin has made more anti-gay comments than any other person in Hollywood. Yet he still manages to find work and not one homosexual rally against him has taken place.

Now here’s a real absurdly hypocritical twist to this story. The website responsible for starting the effort to get Eich fired, OKCupid, employs a man that contributed to an “anti-gay” effort. That’s right, OKCupid co-founder Sam Yagan, who publicly applauded Mozilla for forcing Eich to resign, made a donation in 2004 to a senator in Utah that supported a marriage amendment banning same-sex “marriage.” How’s that for irony?

But has Yagan been asked to resign? Nope.

Tune in tomorrow for pat 2 of this essay on the fiasco that is Mozilla, Brendan Eich, and homosexuals gone mad with totalitarian power.
