On the reactionary supposed "news" website The Blaze that is famous for spinning conservative bullshit as real news they had an op-ed piece by a straight conservative teeny touting his new gay bff he met on the Twitters. It's not just any ole fag, he's a "gay conservative." And the "gay conservative" wants to tell the world how it is to be one of humanity's most complex, exotic, yet most conflicted aberration known in recent history ever since the Jewish Nazis and the Black KKK members - that of the "gay conservative."
He went on to tell me why he decided to become conservative, making some very interesting and crucial points.
“I am a conservative because I care more about the economy and our nation’s security more than I do the government recognizing my relationship with someone. Yes, my relationship with someone is important, but it is just one part of me. A big part, but none of it matters if my bank account is empty, I have no job, our borders aren’t secure and our nation isn’t respected around the world. To vote solely on that part of me just doesn’t make sense. I wish gays would try to make up their minds for themselves…. Republicans line up with my thinking more.”It is interesting that with gays we are expected to push aside our whole humanity for everything else, and it is weird and bizarre that a homo would be more interested in stopping Mexicans (maybe a future Mexican boyfriend?) from crossing the border than he is in securing his economic rights and whatever property rights he may build with his future hubby. And that is just the political side of things, what about his whole humanity? Does he even know that the conservative bowel movement says he's a sexual deviant possessed by demons and a sinner who needs to repent above all else because his soul, his being will be destroyed by the God man boss in the sky?
In right wing politics it is easy to find gays who would ignore their own existence in order to support the privilege of the powerful. This notion by the right wing neo-fascists to exclude gay identity is just another form of fag bashing. We would never expect to have a black voter just simply support an avowed racist like Cliven Bundy because he agrees with him on everything else except the "negro issue." And ironically the same goes to the anti-gay bigots of the conservative bowel movement. Conservative hacks always rant that they will never, and that is never, relent on any one issue including gay marriage. Hence you see a staunch conservative like Sen. Rob Portman, who falls in line with all of the republican/conservative teabagger fascist programs except that of opposing gay marriage. And because these conservatives "disagree" with Portman on gay marriage (but agree with him on everything else) he must be tossed out but yet a homo must relent on the gay issue in order to join the conservative bandwagon.
Sorry, but I am not buying this whole "gay conservative" nonsense. Fuck that.
Conservatism, as it is currently, demands a reinstatement of past social values and the status quo of hetero-supremacy. White, Christian, heterosexual, old, mostly male block of our country is reacting to the changes of demographics and they would rather eat shit than let that demographic change to the point that society no longer recognizes their special status on top of the food chain and conservatism enables them to retain that power. If I can sum up conservatism I think I just did.
And gay is a threat to that conservative world view, or at least the acceptance of homosexuality as normal. Conservatives have reminded us several times already that there is nothing "conservative about homosexuality" which is one of the reasons they have kicked so-called gay conservatives out of their conservative functions like C-PAC in the last recent years.
To the "gay conservative" I would say I don't believe you, and you are not a conservative by any stretch of the imagination. You have accepted your homosexuality as natural, which it is. But that is a big no-no in the conservative bowel movement. And I don't think you hate yourself, it appears to me that you are gay person that is in need of attention. Well you go it. Congrats. You should pat yourself in the back for helping a movement that cannot get over its gay suspicion and mistrust (ah see I didn't just label the conservative bowel movement as homophobic). And like Chris Christie (I bet he's one of your heroes huh?) so eloquently said: "Sit down and shut up!"
