One of my readers wrote (via email) about the LGBTQ issue as I addressed that in the current essay.

Bruce Cain: "I have nothing against gays, lesbians etc. But this is really part of the Marxist agenda to destroy the fabric of society: the family." [Quote from essay]

Reader: Some more wisdom...The trans community wants people to accept them for who they are, but being trans, by definition, is not accepting yourself as you were born. A trans person is born a man or a woman. They grow older and decide they do not accept that they are that gender and change themselves. If you can’t accept yourself for who you are when you were born, why should you expect other people to accept you as you are after a sex change?

I'm of the opinion that an intelligent comedian like George Carlin/Bill Hicks etc. is the best person to chat about the news with. They're capable of recognizing the unreasonable and making it funny. Others recognize the unreasonable and make it a ball and chain.

Bruce Cain: Again the strategy of Marxism explicitly wanted to destroy the family. We saw this with the Frankfurt School in Berlin during the 1920's. Those people, such as Marcuse, then migrated to America and wound up at major universities. I recall reading Marcuse at Michigan State University in the 70's when attending James Madison College (a college within MSU) which catered to people wanting to be diplomats, union leaders etc. I can hardly believe how bad this is today as that was like 50 years ago.

An adult can do who or whatever they want consensually. But I find it insane that we have allowed this rot to infect our K-12 curriculum. Giving kids hormone blockers, Target promoting "tuck shorts" etc., top/bottom surgery for teens . . . is insane. No child (under 18) has a foggy clue about their sexuality as it intersects with the reality of working a job, raising a family. I have some familiarity with this having been married 47 years: two children, two grandchildren. In terms of Evolutionary Psychology the vast majority of humans eventually elect a committed relationship by which couples can support the nurturing of their children. The same holds true of other animals such as Morning Doves that bond for life.

And as we have already seen some of these "trans kids" are suing for what was allowed to be done to them, as they should. There is no place for LGBTQ/CRT curriculums in our primary schools. And many schools have turn in information on anti-LGBTQ protesters to the FBI. My mother taught fourth grade (b. 1927). She must be turning in her grave seeing what is happening today in our primary schools.

This happens so much - people do not realize the source of the problem but continue to strike at the symptoms - poverty, inequality, habitat degradation that sort of thing. They are just symptoms. The source comes from the belief in authority which is materialized in the law and the money system. The antidote to it all is free speech because all wealth comes from information, knowledge. And when information and knowledge is cut off, it gives power to the ones who cut off the information and leaves the uninformed bereft and helpless. If we had free speech we would know how to make free energy for example. The belief in law is a silly belief and is underscored by the belief in authority. Money is the vehicle that infects the human psyche because only one authority issues money. The UN by the way is a nefarious organization/corporation and and thrives off its patina of impressiveness. What has the UN done to provide water to Africans? With all their billions over the decades, pretty much nothing.
