"An early pioneer of conservative talk radio was the late Bob Grant (1929–2013), who broadcast out of New York City. Often when Grant was commenting on some outrage in the news, he'd say, "It's sick out there and getting sicker." If only he knew how his words would ring ever more true in the years to come.
This is not a family. It's a TRAVESTY of a family.
The case in point is the cover of the current Time magazine. It is a photograph of "Mayor Pete" Buttigieg and his "husband" Chasten Buttigieg standing close together with the caption "First Family." (Permit me a minor digression here. If Chasten is the "husband" of this couple, why are both of them using Buttigieg's last name and not Chasten's, which is Glezman? I guess I'm too old and deplorable to understand such nuances.)
This cover and its accompanying story is an in-your-face, full-blown endorsement of homosexual "marriage" and the effort to make it appear normal. Here we are seeing propaganda at its finest. It is an example of what the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-N.Y.) meant when he talked about "defining deviancy down."
Moynihan based this observation of the work of sociologist Emile Durkheim, who said there is a limit to bad behavior that a society can tolerate before it starts to lower its standards. Is this not what we have been seeing since the 1960s? One insult to the family, to fatherhood, to patriotism, and to normality itself ratchets traditional standards down. At that point, the system digests the changes, rests for a brief time, and then the Left begins its next assault. The trajectory is always down, never up.
I have been following the 'defining deviance down' process for more years than I care to remember. At first I was shocked at what the counterculture was able to get away with. Now I unfortunately believe that the end is not yet in sight in America's race to the gutter."
The near-pathological obsession of the left with gay relationships is astounding, even more so in light of the simply catastrophic demographic evolution in both Europe and North America, especially in the former. WHY is popular 'culture' doing its very best to extol the virtues of a lifestyle that is barren, anti-evolution and profoundly unhealthy? Here, for example, is a short trait about the health risks involved for gay males:
"Unhealthy sexual behaviors occur among both heterosexuals and homosexuals. Yet the medical and social science evidence indicate that homosexual behavior is uniformly unhealthy. Although both male and female homosexual practices lead to increases in Sexually Transmitted Diseases, the practices and diseases are sufficiently different that they merit separate discussion.
1. Male Homosexual Behavior
Men having sex with other men leads to greater health risks than men having sex with women1 not only because of promiscuity but also because of the nature of sex among men. A British researcher summarizes the danger as follows:
“Male homosexual behaviour is not simply either ‘active’ or ‘passive,’ since penile-anal, mouth-penile, and hand-anal sexual contact is usual for both partners, and mouth-anal contact is not infrequent. . . . Mouth-anal contact is the reason for the relatively high incidence of diseases caused by bowel pathogens in male homosexuals. Trauma may encourage the entry of micro-organisms and thus lead to primary syphilitic lesions occurring in the anogenital area. . . . In addition to sodomy, trauma may be caused by foreign bodies, including stimulators of various kinds, penile adornments, and prostheses.”2
Although the specific activities addressed below may be practiced by heterosexuals at times, homosexual men engage in these activities to a far greater extent.3
a. Anal-genital
Anal intercourse is the sine qua non of sex for many gay men.4 Yet human physiology makes it clear that the body was not designed to accommodate this activity. The rectum is significantly different from the vagina with regard to suitability for penetration by a penis. The vagina has natural lubricants and is supported by a network of muscles. It is composed of a mucus membrane with a multi-layer stratified squamous epithelium that allows it to endure friction without damage and to resist the immunological actions caused by semen and sperm. In comparison, the anus is a delicate mechanism of small muscles that comprise an “exit-only” passage. With repeated trauma, friction and stretching, the sphincter loses its tone and its ability to maintain a tight seal. Consequently, anal intercourse leads to leakage of fecal material that can easily become chronic.
The potential for injury is exacerbated by the fact that the intestine has only a single layer of cells separating it from highly vascular tissue, that is, blood. Therefore, any organisms that are introduced into the rectum have a much easier time establishing a foothold for infection than they would in a vagina. The single layer tissue cannot withstand the friction associated with penile penetration, resulting in traumas that expose both participants to blood, organisms in feces, and a mixing of bodily fluids.
Furthermore, ejaculate has components that are immunosuppressive. In the course of ordinary reproductive physiology, this allows the sperm to evade the immune defenses of the female. Rectal insemination of rabbits has shown that sperm impaired the immune defenses of the recipient.5 Semen may have a similar impact on humans.6
The end result is that the fragility of the anus and rectum, along with the immunosuppressive effect of ejaculate, make anal-genital intercourse a most efficient manner of transmitting HIV and other infections. The list of diseases found with extraordinary frequency among male homosexual practitioners as a result of anal intercourse is alarming:
Anal Cancer
Chlamydia trachomatis
Cryptosporidium
Giardia lamblia
Herpes simplex virus
Human immunodeficiency virus
Human papilloma virus
Isospora belli
Microsporidia
Gonorrhea
Viral hepatitis types B & C
Syphilis7
Sexual transmission of some of these diseases is so rare in the exclusively heterosexual population as to be virtually unknown. Others, while found among heterosexual and homosexual practitioners, are clearly predominated by those involved in homosexual activity. Syphilis, for example is found among heterosexual and homosexual practitioners. But in 1999, King County, Washington (Seattle), reported that 85 percent of syphilis cases were among self-identified homosexual practitioners.8 And as noted above, syphilis among homosexual men is now at epidemic levels in San Francisco...."

But be all that as it may... the overenthusiastic promotion of gay lifestyles by our moral betters comes in the worst of times, demography-wise. Whites are a dying race. There's no denying it anymore. Here, for instance, are the last two pages of a quarterly bulletin issued by an association of former students of a High School somewhere in Flanders. I'm sure it's the same story from De Panne to Sint-Pieters-Voeren. This is the last but one page, dealing with the "Overlijdens", the recently deceased (parents, uncles, aunts, brothers of former students):
Twelve dead and counting, wait indeed, there's more. The last page mentions another two deceased, and then we come to the paragraph with the newborns ('Geboorten'):
So, in short, we are talking here about fourteen people who have left us, and one replacement. Minus fourteen and plus one makes minus thirteen.
Or how about this? Here are two other telling pics, from a run of the mill parish church in Flanders, as you can find them anywhere from the North Sea to the German border. In Belgian Catholic churches, it is customary to provide two placards near the church entrance to display either remembrance cards and little crosses of the recently deceased, on the one hand:
In this case, eight people...
Or, on the other hand, little shells with the names of recently baptized children:
One. Just one. A little darling by the name of Lore.
Sure, you will argue that not all young parents are baptizing their children anymore. Well, that's fair. Still, I would wager, without checking any data, that a slight majority still does it. There used to be a time, not too long ago, when the little shells could reliably be used as a parameter for births. But okay, let's assume that only one newborn 'Biobelgian' out of two is baptized. Assume that for this little one who got sprinkled with Holy Water, there's another one who was not. That still leaves us with eight dead people vs two who will step in their place. Not good arithmetic. Especially not when, alas, we have to conclude that year after year, the number of people who choose to depart from this world WITHOUT Christian rites is ALSO steeply on the rise. On that first placard, there's perhaps three people missing who opted for having their ashes thrown and scattered in the wind without the Catholic church having a say in it. Not enough for our comparison to cancel out, percentage-wise, the non-baptized newborns, but we're getting there, certainly. Europe, more so than North America, can't seem to put Christianity out there with the garbage bags fast enough.
So Europe has apparently decided not to procreate anymore, at least the natives. And to discourage those who would still think of making kids themselves, there's now a gargantuan propaganda effort at work to fool our youngsters into believing that males buttplugging other males, or females doing females, is just as wonderful and normal - actually, even more so - than what heterosexuals do between the sheets.
We are already destroying ourselves.
But it seems that for the left things still don't go fast enough. The Time propaganda hit job, see above, is but one piece of evidence among a gazillion.
