Squeegy posted:I don't really care either, except when someone tries to claim that they're a gay icon. Then I've got an axe to grind, because I don't really think they deserve that moniker. People should be honored for speaking against the grain, not conveniently supporting gay rights when the time finally comes where it is politically convenient for them to do so. We should forgive, but not forget. Yeah, remember when the Clintons didn't do anything at all for Gay people and that not doing anything helped incite Congress to pass veto proof legislation?

Turnquiet posted:Holy shot piiiissssss I had no idea The Dana Carvey show had anything of value and that Colbert was in it. The wrong guy from Wayne's World got botched heart operations and a hobbled career. Years before Jon Stewart was hosting The Daily Show, Bob Odenkirk turned Robert Smigel onto The Onion and a few The Onion writers collaborated with Smigel to produce parodies of TV news for the Dana Carvey Show with Colbert as the anchor. I don't think they ever aired, but one of The Onion writers (Ben Karlin) went on to be a head writer on The Daily Show as soon as Stewart joined, and was co-creator of Colbert Report.

I voted on Friday and there was some fatass neckbeard haranguing the early voting staff at the county offices about "everyone has bias, only some care to acknowledge it" like he was some vapist heidegger dropping smug redpill knowledge on the lesser gender. I just saunter up to the counter and the lady's like "we get all types, welp" Felt so loving ashamed, but then I got to cancel that rear end in a top hat's vote out so all's well in the world. Did it during lunch so after I voted for Hillary I went back to work. At a bank, owned by a massive multinational group headquartered in France. Parentheses all over the place.

Looks like, with the exception of Reagan and W(both got around 40%), Republicans are usually in the toilet. Still, it's better than their numbers with Blacks.

Agnosticnixie posted:Liberal pragmatism is cold comfort for people who grew up then and spent their youths fighting for poo poo that ended up being a knock-on effect of the late 90s way of doing thing. Canada had gay marriage in every province before there was a paradigm shift. Same with Mexico and Argentina's federal gay marriage laws. Who gives a poo poo if someone had wrong opinions on gay rights in the 90s. The entire strategy of the gay rights movement ever since the 70s was to change minds about gay rights. Putting people on trial for opinions they used to have after you worked to change their minds is stupid and counterproductive.  Marriage is a sacred institution between a man and a woman, it's not for homos! Actually, gay people are no different than straight people, we are all human and deserve the same rights and privileges. Look around, you probably know gay people. Your cousin loves his husband as much as you love your wife, are you going to tell him he doesn't deserve to visit his loved one in the hospital Hmm I guess you're right. From now on I'll support you as an elected official. No way, get hosed you hypocrite!! I'll never forgive you and I'll never support you no matter what you do so you might as well keep working against my interests to get the bigot vote cuz you sure won't get mine!

Unfortunately they were gone by the time I got back. No stamina!

computer parts posted:I mean, except for all the people who did grow up then and say the Clintons are just fine. Gays are a captive demographic of the democratic party, it's not like the LCR represents more than a handful of morons. Having the HRC seal of approval isn't really meaningful when the Human Rights campaign is itself a bullshit organisation that spent most of the aughties fighting against trans rights for fear that trans people having rights was too scary for the US public. But sure, take them to task when they don't actually act up on progressive ideals unless apparently when it's unpopular, then it's perfectly okay to put rights down to popularity contests.

Squeegy posted:I thought that was Baehr v. Miike? Baehr v. Miike was what started freaking out "good Christians" about the sanctity of marriage, having just finally started calming down from their freak out over Loving v. Virginia. However when the Clintons tried to get open gay service in the military that made it look like the insidious Homosexual Agenda might be going somewhere. Other things definitely contributed to the rear end in a top hat push to define marriage, but as I remember the fight over gays in the military was the second salvo as far as the religious right was concerned.

VitalSigns posted:Who gives a poo poo if someone had wrong opinions on gay rights in the 90s. Or you know, primary the fucker. Also this is generally a terrible argument that only feeds a relatively complacent, liberal view of how things progress. Without angry people, the assimilationists would have gotten nowhere. It was in no way the entire strategy of the gay rights movement, it was a strategy used by some of it. You might as well claim that outings were a deliberate strategy of the whole gay rights movement because some people adopted it as one.

He's just a massive, pissbaby rear end in a top hat who does the same thing over and over again, then finds a new way to dig deeper and make it worse. There's no secret plan, he's not secretly skilled at anything, he's just an idiot who tapped into a vein of white rage and is going to get embarrassingly close but almost certainly get crushed.

Squeegy posted:I have no problem with that either and I don't recall saying I did. Ally is a little different from hero. And hero is also different from icon. A lot of Hillary's popularity in the gay community comes from the fact that electing a woman President of the United States will inherently challenge traditional ideas of gender roles and norms, something gay people have been fighting to do for decades. It's at best tangential to her 90s policy work, whatever your view of that may be. e: and obviously it's by no means universal, there are people in the alphasoup community who think hillary is a lizard people and that doesn't delegitimize their identities or whatever, it's just a general sense that a lot of people have.
