LGBT activists are bullies
I hate bullies - cowards who prey on those weaker than themselves. I also hate hypocrites - people who practice the opposite of what they preach.
Today, LGBT activists are both. For generations, they claimed that tolerance is what they sought; to be allowed to live their lives as they saw fit in peace. This, they achieved many years ago, under the law and from the vast mainstream of society.
Now, they eagerly and desperately violate absolutely everything they once said about tolerance, damning anyone who objects to the full normalization of their lifestyle. Grandmothers, little girls, wives and maidens must lose all rights to traditional seclusion.
In the upside-down world of the LGBT activists, the “need” for a 50-year-old transvestite to feel free to go to the ladies room trumps the rights of families to protect their children, women to enjoy their privacy and traditional mainstream gender norms to be practiced in public.
This is hypocrisy, backed up by intimidation. It is narcissism taken to the point of real deviancy. Their utopia demands not tolerance, but the utter destruction of Judeo-Christian Western Civilization. They feel empowered to vilify, blacklist and persecute any dissent from their zealotry.
