It was so strange. I noticed it early on as it was unfolding. The patterns were very clear; the phrases were identical. I thought, this can't possibly be spontaneous; some core group must be orchestrating it. I thought, if one could just find out where this one phrase first appeared, surely one could map out the network of connections and discover the source.
You could see it if you read epidemiological papers before and compared them to papers after. It was as though history had started all over.
But then, because everything that was said and done - in the media, institutions, all power centers - was always filtered through the invariant of "must destroy Trump at all costs", perhaps orchestration was not necessary. One thinks of George Carlin's aphorism: "You don't need a formal conspiracy when interests converge."
So perhaps the phrases were taken up and disseminated like a virus, rather than emanating from a single source. Or it could have been a combination of orchestration and predisposition.
@DNIGabbard My heart leapt! Thank you so much for doing this and for all the other work you've done! I'm sorry to see you leave office. Your grace, dignity and courage are truly exemplary!
Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer dollars to fund dangerous gain-of-function research at the Wuhan lab, worked with politicized elements within the Intelligence Community to suppress the truth about his actions and hide the virus’ lab-leak origins, and lied to Congress while under oath in 2024. It’s time you know the truth.

I own a small LLC that contracts with a CA company. I'm gay, but I've always resisted registering as an LGBT-owned business because the idea seems ludicrous to me. In 2023 their HR sent me a diversity questionnaire, which stated that if I *didn't* fill it out, they wouldn't pay my invoices. Thankfully, I was not required to send a bedroom selfie.
If you're a straight male and don't understand why dudes dress like that for pride - you know what a tail spinner is, right? Same idea - you make yourself into a human fishing lure to get attention and maybe catch something big, dumb and easily dazzled.
I'm not sure how a group whose foremost achievement has been the expansion of the institution of marriage, as well as concomitant adoption rights, merits a blanket characterization as hostile toward civilization and families.
Bill Clinton expanded pride to a month in 1999. The convergence/mainstreaming of woke/trans occurred over the past 5 years. So you're compressing a decades-long "expansion" and reacting to relatively recent phenomena.
I think that many of us who fought for marriage retired from activism, trusting that the younger generations could take the wheel and ... what could go wrong? Oh boy.
Most gay people simply don't know about WPATH or the extent to which the movement has been hijacked by trans militants, nor about how the excesses of pride are eroding what has been built. The few of us who have had our eyes opened are horrified. I've been speaking out, but the cost is high: ostracism, isolation. That's why I'm here on X now and nowhere else.
But I am seeing more and more resistance of late. I'm more optimistic than I was 5 years ago. I think you're right, though: it's people like me - the minority within the minority - that are best suited to push back, if we can just find one other and band together.
He said he saw two male goats humping and realized that sodomy is about domination, not love, so I told him: You just committed sodomy by pulling that idea out of your ass.
Often I find kitsch to be more engaging than fine art, because in art, there are very few ways to be really good, but there are *so* many ways to be really, really bad.
TODAY'S HOROSCOPE
Your inundations on the home front will cause much consternation. Travel is in the cards, but not in your bank cards, which will be declined. Good news on the stolen property front awaits. Motivation may be lacking in whatever you undertake today, and if you're reading this bullshit I rest my case. You are likely to enjoy good health in the post mortem arena. There is a good chance of making some money on the side, and losing even more on the other side. Your profile is likely to make you a hot contender for immediate arrest.
Your ability to divine other people's sinister intentions from far away is impressive but doesn't really add anything of interest to the discussion, since he's already almost universally maligned. Have you ever considered addressing the substance of what he is saying or the merit of the ideas? I know that's not as satisfying as trashing someone's character, but it would be far more interesting.
When I was on gay social media I got exhausted defending conservatives and Christians. Now on X I'm arguing with conservatives and Christians, not because they're hating on the gays, but because they're doing it wrong.
I think you're pretending you don't know the difference between homosexuality and pedophilia. At least I hope you're not that ignorant. So why don't you just be honest and say you hate gays and think they're evil regardless of what they do? It's ok to hate other people for no reason, if you just admit it. Follow the Ninth Commandment.
It isn't. It's related to "I'll post a news story guaranteed to stir up a hate fiesta and get lots of views." A minimal google search would show that there is no evidence of a connection, nor any evidence that gays are more likely than nongays to commit child abuse. I know because I did a minimal google search.
