U.S. Vice President Joe Biden urged executives in Davos to use their influence to drive change in countries where lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people face repression, putting gay rights at the heart of this year's meeting.

The issue is on the official agenda for the first time at the World Economic Forum, where political leaders from countries that discriminate against gay people, such as Nigeria and Russia, schmooze business leaders and billionaire investors.

...

He said he and President Barack Obama privately raise the issue of repression of the LGBT community when they meet political leaders.

"I have had some run-ins with at least four heads of state already on this," said Biden.

Banging his fist on the table, Biden said there was no national cultural justification to discriminate against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.

"People used to be cannibals as part of their culture, people used to do terrible things as part of their culture," he said.

How does it feel to be equated with cannibals by the vice president of the USA?

Make no mistake about it. This is a major ruling class project.

Exactly. Isn’t Cultural Imperialism and imposing Western Values exactly what the Left has been screaming about for the past, oh, 40 or 50 years?

Does Biden even comprehend that he is taking on the 2.0 BILLION muslims in the world now (2014 data). Joe should be watching his back. Muslims are not going to embrace this gay perversion life-style any more than Christians will, although the US churches are dangerously close to becoming irrelevant. Besides, the Muslims are going to outbreed us and take over the globe without a shot being fired.

Uh, Joe. People are doing terrible things as part of this culture. Go to San Fran and watch the parade. Uh Joe, you got in trouble for speaking about Indians and 7-11s. Why are you disparaging cannibals. They deserve equality too.

Be careful Biden. You might accidentally do something to hurt the Muslim nations of the world, and then who's boots would you lick in the future?

“Somebody please nuke Davos. Please.”

I thought about that but there are actually innocent people there. Maybe a couple of Hellfires on their auditorium during the commencement address?

Of course it is. Total emasculation and destruction of unique identity in small boys (all interchangeable drones). Got to embed the attitudes and desires when children are young (irrational), so when they grow up they have an “unshakeable” belief that “snow is black” and vice is virtue and mutilating yourself and using the body in dehumanizing ways is “Good”.

They are flipping 2000 years of Christian ethics which formed Western Civ and the most just, free cultures in the World-—to tribal/satanic worldview of irrationality/insanity-—where the Caligula’s and Nero’s can rule and use the boys in their orgies like the good old pagan, serf days. Boys learn to be dominated and controlled which was middle age business model in Europe, when boys were removed from the fathers at age 7 for “training” like with the whole Samurai/Spartan/Afghani “cultures” of pederasty.

All behaviors are learned and habituated (Aristotle). We have known that for over 2000 years, yet parents allow strangers to embed their own ideology into their little children (along with satanic Hollywood). Virtue is learned and habituated in childhood.

The only reason for education is to teach Virtue (Socrates). Common Core is embedding the most irrational vile, satanic beliefs and ideas in the children and erasing the possibility of “thinking” with virtue. they are hyper-sexualized—trained to see others as a Means or sex object-—even the same sex as an object. Christianity is erased.

It is as Fichte stated—to destroy “Free Will” (choice) and make children so dumb and irrational they will be “happy slaves” of the State which will need no army.

Yes, it has. But when it is the lefts cultural imperialism then it is ok. It is just like everything else with the Left, if they are for it, then it is ok, if against, then it can not be policy of pushed.

Worst persecution of Christians in modern times and not a peep from Slow Joe.

Slaughter, beheadings, crucifixions, rape sexual enslavement, forced conversions.

No comment from the regime.

But refuse to bake a cake or call Bruce Jenner a "him" then lookout.
