There is a song called “Stand up for Judas”, sung by some commie associated with the IRA.
Good article.
Nobody much swallows live goldfish any more...
(Apparently the fad had boomed once before, in the 1920’s.)
Harvard Student Lothrop Withington
Swallowing the First Goldfish
The origination of goldfish swallowing is well documented. It began with a single man.
In a 1963 letter to the New York Times, Lothrop explained that the fad began in late 1938 when, he, Lothrop Withington Jr., a then Harvard freshman, was encouraged by his “campaign managers” to swallow a live goldfish as a publicity stunt in his bid for class president. Withington, son of a Boston lawyer and Harvard’s 1919 football captain, had boasted that he had once eaten a live goldfish in front of a crowd at Holworthy Hall. A fellow student offered to pay Lothrop $10 to do the stunt again. Lothrop agreed and a date for the stunt was set.
On March 3, 1939, the dining hall of the Freshmen Union was crowded with spectators waiting to see this unusual sight. People started taking pictures while Lothrop plucked a wiggling three-inch fish from its bowl, leaned backwards, and lowered the fish into his mouth. He chewed the fish a few times and then swallowed hard. Afterwards, he took a toothbrush out of his pocket to clean his teeth and remarked “the scales caught a bit on my throat as it went down.”
“Reporters and photographers were present in the Harvard Freshman Union when Withington swallowed his live goldfish (with a mashed potato chaser) and started a nationwide fad in the spring of 1939.”
Thus is a fad born, grows to near instant notoriety, then...
...just fades away.
Homosexual “merriage” is just one of the more recent fads, and in a generation, people will look back and say, “What was so interesting about all that?”

Nero had a slave boy who resembled his deceased wife castrated and married him...We’re not quite there yet.
Gay "marriage" can never survive as a long-term, natural, cultural institution. As the author points out - it can only be forced on people, for a time, by the power of the state, in this case, Nero.
Now we have our own degraded Empire, declaring that gravity doesn't exist, water is not wet, and that homosexuals can "marry."
....called the Golden Age of Nero (quinquennium Neronis), also called Western Civilization.
Yeah, benighted, all right. They didn't have Meat Puppet and Sid Vicious and Kurt Cobain and Phil Spector and The Doors.
