Celebrate Diversity (Or Else)! How the Dems lost the American public. by Derek Hunter

Somewhere along the line the Democratic Party went from “celebrate diversity” to “CELEBRATE DIVERSITY OR ELSE, YOU BIGOT!” They lost the American public – that was perfectly happy to acknowledge firsts and applaud people who achieved them – once the demanded conformity and the bastardizing of reality. And now we find ourselves fighting to keep reality in our public spaces and men out of the ladies’ room.
If you could travel back in time just a few years and tell your younger self that one political party would be fighting tooth and nail to make sure a man in a dress is treated like they were your mother, you’d have your older-self committed. Yet, that’s where the Democrats have led society.
When Delaware elected the first “trans-woman” to Congress, a man named Tim McBride who now goes by Sarah, you knew a conflict was coming between Democrats and reality. See, McBride is one of those leftists who want to be celebrated for existing in a way the left deems important. We normal people are not worthy of celebration for our existence, and most of our accomplishments are diminished because of our skin color, our sexuality or political beliefs – the same reason Democrats celebrate their chosen groups.
As a “trans woman,” the left insists, McBride is a “real woman.” Every bit as real a woman as your sister, your wife, your mother – you can tell by the way a hyphenate is required to explain the penis.
It’s insanity, of course, but people can live insanely if they so choose. What they don’t have is the right to force everyone else to live in crazyland with them.
I’m not saying be rude – Tim changed his name to Sarah, so I’d call him Sarah – but I’m not going to pretend he’s a woman or use whatever pronouns he decrees as the only acceptable ones to use in reference to him.
I would mostly rectify this situation by avoiding him; live and let live doesn’t mean I have to live with anyone or anyone has to live with me. If we worked together, I’d deal with him as little as possible (a feeling that would probably be mutual), but any required interactions would be respectful. Outside of work, we wouldn’t interact at all. I’m too old to play these game or to allow reality to be perverted in order to protect the fragile psyche of anyone – grow the hell up and be more than superficial and we can talk, till then…pass.
That being said, the outrage over Congresswoman Nancy Mace’s desire to keep men out of women’s bathrooms and locker rooms is everything wrong with the left, why they lost the election and why they should continue to lose in perpetuity.
I have no interest in the people who created the concept of “safe spaces” and “trigger warnings” for adults uncomfortable with having someone who disagrees with their politics appearing somewhere on campus having a role in my life at all. If you bring in puppies and Play-Doh for snowflakes to play with after shouting down conservatives or in their post-throwing Molotov cocktails at police, your indifference toward a genuine rape survivor being uncomfortable having men, in a dress or not, in a women-only space speaks louder than you ever could with Metallica’s sound system.
Many on the left are pretending to be outraged that so many conservatives, especially women, are trying to make one little old person feel uncomfortable; that they have no right to do that. Why does one man have the right to make so many other people (and it’s not just Republicans who feel it, they’re just the only ones who won’t be destroyed for admitting it) uncomfortable; to make a rape survivor uncomfortable?
It’s free for female Democrat Members of Congress to pretend to be angry at Mace, “Believe all women” hypocrisy aside, each Member has a private bathroom in their office, so they can make sure it’s never an issue for them, if they’re careful.
But the ultimate simple fact is if it weren’t for the demands of Democrats to “celebrate” this, rather than just exist and ignore it, this whole issue would likely never have risen to this level. McBride has been all over leftist media, with multiple interviews on CNN and MSNBC, for the express reason that he’s a “trans woman.” There is literally no other reason to even acknowledge the existence of a backbench Freshman Congressman from Delaware or anywhere else.
Live by raising a stink, die by raising a stink.
The odds are about even that you’ve been in a public bathroom with someone in drag, either direction, or just someone of the opposite gender. As the father of 2 girls, I’ve been a part of it. Most people don’t notice because you don’t do anything to draw attention to yourself – the business gets done, hands get washed and you get the hell out – no one goes into a bathroom to make friends or put on a show.
But if your existence is continually validated through external forces and attention, positive or negative, you can’t just go about your business. It’s the mentality that asks, “Did I really eat a meal if I didn’t post a picture of it on Instagram?”
That’s not a healthy way to live, but if an adult wants to live that way, who cares? The problem comes in when others insist you live that way too, or else. There’s a difference between not caring what an adult does, as long as what they do it with is of age and willing, and being forced to applaud it. Democrats don’t care as much about the first part; they demand conformity through the second. To hell with that.
