“How about depriving me of my ability to have a livelihood ...? Perhaps the punishment should be that I am not allowed to hold a job....”
It’s already happening. It happened to me. Last year I was coerced into leaving a city government job that I had held for many years because I wasn’t sufficiently enthusiastic towards “transgender” and homosexual issues. Upper management at this facility has evolved over the years and is now comprised of people who are either gay or cheerleaders for gay accomodations. Gay employees are over-represented at this facility and hirings and promotions are slanted towards gay applicants and employees.
Despite being scrupulously neutral, neutrality was not enough. They wanted positive participation in the fictions they believe. When it came time for my annual review, I found out that after many years of excellent work and reviews, several people colluded to present a fraudulent narrative of my performance that would lead to my dismissal after a phony probation period administered and evaluated by these same people. I was left with no choice but to resign before my employment record was stained by their lies.
Everyone wants equal rights but there has never been such a thing. Whoever gets the power finds a way to consolidate their power by discriminating against the people they don’t agree with.
This really expresses a lot for me. I want to say to my many “rainbow” friends .... Because of you, folks like me .... Your family member, your friend .... I will suffer, in some way. At worst, you may witness my persecution and or execution so as to see your dream of so-called equality, come true.
How can I call anyone like this my true friend?
How is it equality for all?
Ironic - isn’t it? - that the same people who sued to stop one group from being pushed out of employment are now pushing other people out.
Sorry about what happened to you.
My army son says it is happening in the military now.
I was just lucky.
I was old enough to retire just before the Queer & Coon Conspiracy could get me.
The dumb sh*ts even offered a buy out just to get rid of “people like me”, yes they said that.
Moderators: I know I used some pretty harsh, non PC language here.
I know the rules, so if you choose to toss this comment I will understand.
Glad you got out in time!
