Yet they're jumping on you for saying the concept is ridiculous.

Critical thinking doesn't seem to be their thing.
Haha Yeah, it's like people find it to be satire, but...this is really how some people think/are. Takes 5 mins just to look around to see what it's about.

IMO, racism implies a behavior or belief that results in a negative impact to a particular racial group. If one likes to have sex only with Mexicans that is not racism, as this person suggests, not only because Mexicans are not a race, but also because unless you are exceptionally kinky, I don't imagine most Mexicans would fell insulted or uncomfortable about it.

Interesting, that in a face-off between progressive interpretations of racial equality and sexual freedom, also presumably a progressive value, race politics wins over the absolute freedom to choose your own partners without social stigma.


Its like supporting cultural diversity even in cases when one of those diverse groups sanctions the public stoning of women and the execution of gay men.

Really can't even make this stuff up anymore.

What is happening to our society?
So Tolerant! Hey, as long as it's not forced bootybanditry, what's the problem? A little bit of social coercion is not really coercion for God's sake! Embrace vibrant enrichment.

The far left wants us all to jump into one big pile and get busy. No preferences or its bigotry. Except for conservative white men, they can stay out of the pile.

While some of you may be laughing, there are people out there right now who are trying to push such a narrative. This particular story may be satire, but you wait a few years and see how this becomes a talking point in the mainstream. I'm not kidding, there's people out there actually telling others this very type of thing, and they are telling people that if someone is a transvestite, and you won't sleep with them, you're a bigot.

By the way, the OP is not a Conservative. Got some real dumb asses on here, don't we.

Embrace Di-versity. Don't fight it. Just lay back and enjoy the vibrant enrichment...

^^ Pretty much sums up what I've been thinking as I've read through this thread. The writings in the link can be down played as satire but this viewpoint does actually represent a section of thinking out there. Truth is often stranger than fiction. There are people out there with some VERY radical views LGBTSQWXYZ. There are these "centers" where they purport to "reorient" gay people. Reprogram or whatever they call it. Pretty out there stuff.

By the same token there are lesbian and gays who have it in their heads they can "convert" heterosexual men and women. And they have some pretty sick and twisted methods of their own. The link in this thread may be satire, but personally I see no humor in it. None at all. I find no humor in sexually based innuendo of any kind. It's crass, lewd,
shows a complete lack of intelligence and yes...it's offensive. At least I find it to be so. Have damn good reason to feel thus.

Stuff like that isn't humorous. I'm going to be a bit more objective to the OP than some and say I can see how the piece could be taken as being serious just as easy as seeing it as satire. I won't dignify it by calling it humor. The people who do actually feel this way would see it as vindication, validation, affirmation. Not satire. How something like that is interpreted depends greatly on one's own personal vews. To me there's better "humor" in the smell that comes off a dairys slurry pond.

99% of gay people would never believe this.

Trust, regular gay folk are already the subject of social justice warrior-ism themselves.

Gay white men, for example, have essentially been told that they are barely part of the community, since they are white and male. They have also been told that it is RACIST for them to only have sexual attraction only to other whites. But, POC explicitly can have sex exclusively with their own race.

Also, trans have attacked gay men who don't want to have sex with someone without a penis. And lesbians have been attacked as transphobic if they don't want to have sex with a woman who has a penis.


Social justice warriors are a very vocal fringe. They are intellectual terrorists. We need to stop giving them the oxygen of publicity.
