No, itās not āPride Month.ā Not for me, and not for millions of others.
Youāre welcome to be proud of whatever you want, in any month you likeābecause this is America. But what started in 1969 as a rebellion against persecution, morphed into a license for public depravity, and then morphed again into a weapon aimed at families and innocent children. Along the way it went from a day, to a week, and then a month and became official, and thereby effectively mandatory for all.
Enough!
If youāre gay and wondering why you are facing resistance now, the answer is that, with few exceptions, most of you didnāt stand up against the expansion and weaponization of āpride,ā and the coercion that went with it. In that failure to resist, the gay community compromised any expectation that the rest of us should support āprideā at all, but especially the obscene display of hostility toward civilization and the families of which it is built, and for whom it exists.
If your hackles are raised by the idea that civilization is about families, realize that families are how civilizations persist through time. Not everyone needs to form one, but we all must respect and protect themāIt is the foundation of what it means to be civilized.
For the small fraction of gays and lesbians who DID courageously stand up and resist expansion, coercion and the weaponization of āPride,ā I stand with you, and I have all along. But I wonāt be celebrating, and I wonāt be silent.
Itās not too late to join the voices of reason and to confront the insanity of what āprideā has become.
