Polish election: Leader targets gay rights as threat to society
BBC ^ | 8 October 2019 | Adam Easton

Posted on 10/15/2019 1:40:20 AM PDT by Cronos

"We consider two communities fundamental, the family as one man, one woman and the children," said the leader of Poland's ruling Law and Justice party (PiS) at a recent convention.

LGBT+ rights have become the single biggest cultural issue in Poland's election campaign ahead of Sunday's vote. In the eyes of Jaroslaw Kaczynski's national-conservative party and the Catholic Church, those rights are a threat to traditional Polish families and values.

Mr Kaczynski likes to identify threats to Polish society - during the election campaign four years ago, he said Middle Eastern migrants might bring "parasites and protozoa" to Poland.

This time around, according to Mr Kaczynski, the threat comes from LGBT+ people and from Europe, where families can have "two mummies or two daddies", he said.

Poland's 1997 constitution states that a marriage is between a man and a woman. Civil partnerships, be they between heterosexual or same-sex couples, are not legally recognised.

"Christianity is part of our national identity, the [Catholic] Church was and is the preacher and holder of the only commonly held system of values in Poland," he said. "Outside of it… we have only nihilism."

Senior Catholic Church figures have gone further, most notably the Archbishop of Krakow, Marek Jedraszewski, who on numerous occasions has identified the "LGBT lobby" and "gender ideology" as the new threat to Polish freedom following the end of communism in 1989, calling it "totalitarian" and a "great threat to our freedom".

Yeah I like to argue but I can’t find a word to disagree with.

Look it is what it is. There’s gonna be gay folks.

I worked with too many in graphics in Manhattan.

The guys who said they have a “roommate” and nothing else were fine.

But then it became “partner”.

Then it became “domestic partner”

And as we all know now it’s “husband”.

The cat was let out of the bag when marriages were allowed as opposed to a civil union . The push to a Babylonian Dyke/Fag utopia will generate a certain backlash from true grounded adults who are not controlled by their loin’s . But they push for the actual indoctrination of the young while in the learning years as opposed to giving them the actual tools they need to exist without such selfish and societal destabilizing life choices . With that said , it is allowable to say that the minds of the perverse are determined to not just lead their life but to impose their perversions onto a heterosexual and naturally procreating structered society. You can (I could) write volumes on this topic as I see it as an EVIL wedge in the demise of a supposedly educated society .

If a political candidate tried to run on such a platform here in the USA they'd be laughed off the stage, and made to be a social piraya.

Yet, it's homosexuality and its deviant lifestyle that has always been the one big societal change that has doomed societies to extinction.

America is headed down that same slippery path to destruction unless homosexuality can be exposed as the evil it is.

Please, stop calling it "gay," it's homosexual, not "gay." I wish there was a way to change out "gay" and replace it with "homosexual" in all of these articles.

My opinion is that it is learning from the mistakes of others.

For example - the USA still uses cheques, Japan still uses mainly cash, but the former Eastern bloc didn’t have cheques and the cash was iffy - so they have leapfrogged to contact-less cards and to mobile phone payments.

In the case of the gaymafia - I remember the late 80s and the early 90s when we first started with “not that there’s anything wrong with it”

then it became “let us just have civil partnerships, what’s the problem?”

Then it became “marriage is a RIGHT, how can you stand in the way of love”

Then it became “So what if we can’t have kids, let’s adopt”

Then it will become “you have to accept us - for everything”

Best to do what India did until 2015 — make homersakshuality illegal

Ask yourself, if the planet had no LGBTQXYZ movement, would it be a better place?

I think I’ve seen studies that range the number of people who really have latent homersakshual tendencies as anywhere from 0.4% to 4% of the population — not many.

These are tendencies, from a Christian point of view, failings - we all have different failings - indulgences, weaknesses.

What makes a person brave is rising above these weaknesses.

A person should not be defined by what they do in the privacy of their bedroom.

The Indian move (Victorian actually) of making homsk illegal is extreme, but looking at the way the pendulum is swinging in the other direction, I kinda think it is right

And all of it, from banning God in public, to abortion, to homo acts and marriage, were all forced on an unwilling nation by a majority of nine lawyers.

Well the LGBTs have certainly destroyed the family, morality, decency and religion in US society.

“And as we all know now it’s “husband”.”

And we’ve gone way past that.

Now women have penises, man have pussies and periods and can get pregnant.

NYC will fine you thousands of dollars if you say otherwise. And you will lose your job in most big companies if you dare to publicly state that.

There are 76 genders and counting.

You can use whatever bathroom and dressing room you choose.

You must use the “right” pronoun or else.

Man can compete in women’s sports.

Libraries are indoctrination little kids with drag queen reading hour, so watch for pedophilia to be legalized next.

And who knows what deviancy is yet to come.

Once you open the door to delusions and embrace it, the whole country will go insane. A delusional country is not long for this world. Sooner than later reality will get its revenge.

It needs to be back in private. The media bombardment of this vile perversion is purposely geared to destroy western society.

I feel those who beat or kill gays are vile and it shouldn’t be tolerated and should be punished severely . But the gays need to get back in the closet at least as far as their public ‘activities’ are concerned.

Liberals push diversity over unity.
Nothing good ever came of diversity. Unity creates strength.

“You can (I could) write volumes on this topic as I see it as an EVIL wedge in the demise of a supposedly educated society .”

The argument for accepting certain deviancies seem to be grounded on the notion that if it doesn’t harm anyone then it should be allowed in the name of freedom and justice.

And that point of view seems to be carrying the day. Our side has so far failed to mount an effective counter argument defining the harm that it does to a society. It is a more difficult argument to make than the one for freedom and justice because the harm that it does is subtle and not yet as evident as it will become in future years.

So to reverse this trend, countries like Poland and maybe Russia and China who refuse to knuckle under these delusions and instead choose to respect reality will eventually surpass us and demonstrate that there’s a price to pay for embracing delusional behavior. We will see.

The Lavender Mafia represents maybe 2% of the population but they occupy many key roles in media, medicine, government, academia... They are grooming small children to question their identity and introduce them to concepts of crossdressing, hormonal suppression, breast binding, anal sex, polyamory, etc.

They are coming for your children and they seek to destroy the institutions of The Church and Marriage.

50 years ago the radical dyke who founded NOW was quite explicit about this.

the false gods in black robes on the Supremacist Court and feckless Jerry Brown pushed this on the world.

When the USA went gay-gay-gay so went the West.

Other nations FOLLOWED the United States’ lead.

Marxist Feminism’s Ruined Lives
Frontpagemag.com ^ | 9-2-2014 | Mallory Millett

“When women go wrong men go right after them.” – Mae West

“Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy; its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.” Winston Churchill wrote this over a century ago.

During my junior year in high school, the nuns asked about our plans for after we graduated. When I said I was going to attend State University, I noticed their disappointment. I asked my favorite nun, “Why?” She answered, “That means you’ll leave four years later a communist and an atheist!”

What a giggle we girls had over that. “How ridiculously unsophisticated these nuns are,” we thought. Then I went to the university and four years later walked out a communist and an atheist, just as my sister Katie had six years before me.

Sometime later, I was a young divorcee with a small child. At the urging of my sister, I relocated to NYC after spending years married to an American executive stationed in Southeast Asia. The marriage over, I was making a new life for my daughter and me. Katie said, “Come to New York. We’re making revolution! Some of us are starting the National Organization of Women and you can be part of it.”

I hadn’t seen her for years. Although she had tormented me when we were youngsters, those memories were faint after my Asian traumas and the break-up of my marriage. I foolishly mistook her for sanctuary in a storm. With so much time and distance between us, I had forgotten her emotional instability.

And so began my period as an unwitting witness to history. I stayed with Kate and her lovable Japanese husband, Fumio, in a dilapidated loft on The Bowery as she finished her first book, a PhD thesis for Columbia University, “Sexual Politics.”

It was 1969. Kate invited me to join her for a gathering at the home of her friend, Lila Karp. They called the assemblage a “consciousness-raising-group,” a typical communist exercise, something practiced in Maoist China. We gathered at a large table as the chairperson opened the meeting with a back-and-forth recitation, like a Litany, a type of prayer done in Catholic Church. But now it was Marxism, the Church of the Left, mimicking religious practice:

“Why are we here today?” she asked.
“To make revolution,” they answered.
“What kind of revolution?” she replied.
“The Cultural Revolution,” they chanted.
“And how do we make Cultural Revolution?” she demanded.
“By destroying the American family!” they answered.
“How do we destroy the family?” she came back.
“By destroying the American Patriarch,” they cried exuberantly.
“And how do we destroy the American Patriarch?” she replied.
“By taking away his power!”
“How do we do that?”
“By destroying monogamy!” they shouted.
“How can we destroy monogamy?”
Their answer left me dumbstruck, breathless, disbelieving my ears. Was I on planet earth? Who were these people?

“By promoting promiscuity, eroticism, prostitution and homosexuality!” they resounded.

They proceeded with a long discussion on how to advance these goals by establishing The National Organization of Women. It was clear they desired nothing less than the utter deconstruction of Western society. The upshot was that the only way to do this was “to invade every American institution. Every one must be permeated with ‘The Revolution’”: The media, the educational system, universities, high schools, K-12, school boards, etc.; then, the judiciary, the legislatures, the executive branches and even the library system.

It fell on my ears as a ludicrous scheme, as if they were a band of highly imaginative children planning a Brinks robbery; a lark trumped up on a snowy night amongst a group of spoiled brats over booze and hashish...
