House of Eratosthenes

Now, he made a mistake in the interview with Diane Sawyer. Well, I don’t know if it’s a mistake, but he announced that he’s a Republican. So whatever good vibe he was gonna get from coming out, he just destroyed. You ought to see what happened to him on Twitter. You ought see the Twitterverse after Jenner announced that he’s a Republican. Love went to instant diabolical hate and rejection. People who previously applauded him for his bravery, hell, the sports Drive-Bys, they’re so orgasmic about this they can’t contain themselves, until he said he was a Republican.

That cost him some love and affection within certain people out there on Twitter and so forth. And, by the way, that is its own lesson. You have these — what do I call them? I don’t want to call them conditions. You have these lifestyle choices. Some of them are automatically assumed to be liberal. Single mother, single parent, gay, automatic Democrat, right? Automatic liberal. Transgender, automatic liberal. Bruce Jenner comes out as a Republican, ah, ah, ah, ah. “We now don’t care that you’re transgender, because the fact that you’re a Republican is yuk. How could you dare? You can’t be a legitimate transgender and be a Republican.”

You should see some of these tweets…

Certain older family relative denied — absolutely, steadfastly, denied — that anyone would ever choose the lifestyle, given that it’s so miserable. But she sees people choosing to flaunt the lifestyle every week. There is social and political currency in it, in membership of any designated-oppressed-person class, one has to deny reality to pretend it isn’t there. And the liberals flock to it like crazed backyard birds to a feeder, not to reform society & rid our social code of any vestige of intolerance, but to exploit this currency.

Biggest lie in the world is the liberals are opposed to intolerance. Second-biggest lie is that their opposition is dedicated to preserving or furthering such intolerance.

Speaking of relatives, a certain younger one called to discuss his career plans, wanting to know if he had my support even though he knew I disagreed with his choices. The answer was, of course he does. That’s exactly what the LGBT movement — that’s what it is, a “movement,” not a community — will not, and perhaps cannot, do with Bruce Jenner; that’s the test. A political movement is not likely to tolerate someone supporting another political movement that is laboring toward an oppositional goal. In fact, as a political movement, it is quite reasonable for it to withhold this support. But, it is not reasonable to say something like “Our big thing is that women should be better represented in the hallways of power” and then do your darnedest to smear, slander, make punchlines about, and destroy the influence of Sarah Palin.

This is one of the great paradoxes of our times. The “loud crowd” likes to make a big deal out of “tolerance.” Our tendency has been to listen to them, because they make so much noise. But we don’t do a very good job of defining what it is, and we tend to do an abysmally poor job of testing it. Our tendency of late has been to define it, and test it, with something of a third-grade mentality. It’s as if “tolerance” has something to do with “pretend I’m not here while I work very hard to annoy you.” And, maybe destroy you. An effort to support and promote real tolerance would not rely so much on annoyance, mockery, obstruction, destruction. Real tolerance wouldn’t rely so much on politics. After a few years, such an effort would culminate in a situation in which we find it easier to live with one another. That is not what is happening here, because that’s not what this has been. There’s been way too much “You can’t be a [blank] and also a [blank]” going on here. That’s because what we’ve been seeing, for the last fifty years or more, has really been all about making it easier to elect democrats. Not about tolerance.

As I’ve tried to make the point to others who don’t walk the straight and narrow, this also applies to modern liberal fascist Democrats and Christianity. I won’t say ALL Dems, as like your “Aunt Petunia Democrat” example from a few weeks ago, there are always those that haven’t been overgrown by the spread of the rot yet.
