All I have to do is log onto social media to be reminded of why I dropped identitarian labels when it comes to politics. Well, I sometimes call myself right-wing, but that term is nebulous enough to not put me in a box. I certainly do not miss being trapped in the (L)libertarian box which many consider to be the most consistent ideology. Maybe libertarianism is. But in the instance I’m about to address, that is not the case.
It all started like this:
“[W]e do not, in fact, need all 8 billion people to agree on this issue.” Do you see the “can of worms” this statement opens? Especially in reference to keeping children, the most vulnerable among us, safe. If 20% of the American population - let’s call it 60 million people - believes parents taking their children to “Drag Shows” is child abuse or “grooming” them to be gay, trans, or whatever; what kind of Fantasyland are you living if you believe 60 million people are going to stand idly by and go along? Do the 60 million people against these policies just need to be “educated” (to YOUR way of thinking)? “You gotta read this book man, then you’ll see it through my eyes!” Adherents to an ideology of “individual liberty,” sure want everyone to fall in line with them.
This next screenshot is a response to the above, with a follow-up by the original poster (OP).
The follow-up to the original Tweet rightly points out the Progressive desire to groom your kids so that they will be initiated into the Progressive worldview and culture. A point I have covered ad nauseum on my Substack. Progressives consider your kids to be theirs to mold and have insinuated themselves in powerful offices to LEGALLY indoctrinate your children with their “beliefs.”
The OP’s response to this follow-up is mind-blowing. I at once recognized the obvious contradiction as being not only ridiculous, but dangerous. Extremely dangerous. The response can be torn apart in many ways, but I’ll respond here how I responded on Twitter:
He's using objective morality against power and Realpolitik, while using subjective morality when it comes to putting kids at risk
Simply put... The OP's response could even be implied to mean that even if you wanted to make it illegal to prevent children to attend Drag Shows, you risk becoming as morally corrupt as those putting on the Drag Shows. Which is odd, because the OP seems to believe there is nothing inherently wrong with kids attending Drag Shows. The OP's whole line of thinking is flawed, but this should not cause us to ignore that original post.
I find it hard to believe that anyone would be more dogmatic about their morality when it comes to political power than to child safety. But that’s how I read the above. Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m reading too far into it. I don’t think I am. I hope you parents out there understand the time in which we are living. Drag Shows for kids are being normalized. If Conservatism is Progressivism driving the speed limit, as Michael Malice says, we’re a few short years from Drag Shows for children being defended by the “Right” in this country. Hard to imagine? But apparently believing these shows are a universal wrong and looking to use power to stop it is much more harmful, both morally and ideologically, than the shows themselves. We are a lost people. I only hope we can be found.
lolberts too worried about their framework and ideological purity and they forgot all about their morals.
Once you Ban drag queen story hour with 100 year prison sentences build hard labor camps to arrest all these fucking retarded LoLberts and throw them in there with the drag queens & Pedo’s.
