people really fetishize marriage but it's not actually helpful as a way to reduce poverty in the US and instead is just trying to blame people for making the wrong life choices. it's "well you shouldn't have had kids" for the pro-life set http://www.demos.org/blog/4/14/14/single-mother-child-poverty-myth

Truly, the one thing our society needs again is for people to enter into marriage because of social pressure rather than actual love and commitment. Truly Matt Walsh has his finger on the pulse of America's troubles.

The arrow of causality is reversed. Marriage doesn't make people prosperous, prosperous people are the ones who can afford to get married. That married people have higher standards doesn't mean marriage has magical powers to make people better off, it just means that well-off people are more likely to be married. It's like in football, where dumb people think that the statistics show that you need to run the ball to win, when it's actually the opposite (teams with leads run the ball to wind down the clock). Running the ball doesn't win games, winning games means you're running the ball a lot.

What the right wants is a desperately poor, badly educated underclass with dismal prospects. I'm pretty sure they're looking at North Korea and going "hey look at how tightly the government can control things there. Think we can do that here?"

ToxicSlurpee posted:What the right wants is a desperately poor, badly educated underclass with dismal prospects. Yeah. They want someone to always be beneath them so they can shine by comparison and give condescending morality lectures while they suffer. If these groups ever start to make headway, right wingers try everything they can to knock them down of claim that they aren't legitimate somehow. If someone isn't worse off than they are, then they have to face their own problems and they will never do that by choice.

Mr Ice Cream Glove posted:Beck hates Hershey Park And so ends Beck's brief flirtation with rationality. I still don't get the insistence on transgender people in bathrooms automatically leading to pedophile rape gangs. Disregarding the blatant assertion that all transpeople are just waiting to prey on your daughter, what prevents cisgender pedophiles getting kids right now? By sheer demographics they would be a much more common threat than any transgender ones, but we don't hear the "think of the children" crap for them. Wonder why?

Mr Ice Cream Glove posted:Beck hates Hershey Park Like, here's the thing that really infuriates me about this: trans people were already using bathrooms, had been for decades. Trans inclusive bathrooms are the status quo. No one is forcing trans anything on anyone. The reason trans bathrooms "came out of nowhere" is entirely because conservative dickheads like Beck have made them an issue. Some people watched Orange is the New Black or something, realized that trans people exist, said "bawgahd that won't do at all" and started ramming lovely bills through state legislatures.

ToxicSlurpee posted:That and the right needed a new boogeyman. It's really just this. They can't openly rage against minorities or gay people without some response (far less of one than normal, these days, but still), so transgenders are just the right mix of rare, unsettling to outdated societal roles, and have the good old "they could be anyone" quality to be the next target. At least for a while.

They just can't generate enough anger and after so much time crying wolf a poo poo load of people are going "meh, whatever." Even the righties I know that usually post typical right wing bullshit on the Facebox are mostly going "yeah you know what? This is loving stupid."

I can't help but wonder if they actually sped up transgender rights by thrusting it into the spotlight; a lot of people accuse the LGBT community of throwing transgendered people under the bus for political gains and (while this is purely anecdotal) most people I've talked to seemed to be under the impression that trans acceptance wouldn't hit the same level gays have for another decade or so. But now all of a sudden you've got a ferocious backlash against them from a shrinking group attacking from a seriously weak angle who have had a really bad track record against pretty much every other minority you can name, and I can't help but wonder if this might result in a pushback that makes transgendered people more of a spotlight issue and therefore make it easier for them to push the same "hey we are literally just people and we aren't sick, and refuse to be ashamed of how we were born" tactic that worked so well for the LBG community. At least I really hope so, it seems like a likely best-case-scenario of this whole clusterfuck

I'm pretty sure it's already happening. They basically found a boogeyman and shoved it in front of the spotlight...and being confused because the nation is calling the conservative asshats monsters and not the transgender people. It doesn't help that they keep getting caught creeping on people to make sure they have the right genitals, or outright assaulting people who aren't feminine or masculine enough for their ideal mental image of a girl/guy.

Another big issue is that the right is losing the support of the middle and the moderates. They've gone full on hate boner sociopath at this point and telling people that aren't super duper hateful that they aren't real Republicans. You really see this in the whole Trump thing; the super right wing hate machine was like "gently caress yeah! He hates brown people and the poors! He's our guy!" while everybody else is like "uuuuuuhhh what." While a lot of them are going to hold their noses and vote R anyway it's actually a huge issue for the right at the moment. They've become so angry and hateful that a lot of people are saying "yeah you know what? Back it off guys we went too far." In the case of LGBT issues when being gay became more tolerable socially and more and more people came out pretty much everybody realized that they had a gay friend or relative but didn't know it yet. When aunt Sally comes out of the closet and introduces you to her girlfriend of 15 years it can be hard to keep the hate strong. It isn't a big leap from there to "you know trans people are alright too." ToxicSlurpee fucked around with this message at 04:28 on May 24, 2016 |
