Where is our military, which has taken an oath to defend the country from enemies “both foreign and DOMESTIC”?
You can see this with the “social revolution” of gay marriage. We’re on the verge of nationwide same sex marriage because of the actions of a few key activists.
The same happened in the ‘60s with the hippies changing our culture. The vast majority of young people were not into the drugs and anti-war and sexual revolutions. But there too, our culture was changed.
The women’s movement, abortion rights, and others, can trace their success to small numbers of key people making things happen.
And wasn’t the Bolshevik Revolution carried out by relatively small numbers of Russians? Wasn’t it Lenin who said, you should use useful idiots in pursuit of your goals? Then, cast them aside when your work is done?
I think that part of what happens is that activists have the biggest mouths. And, in the case of liberal causes, they enlist the aid of the liberal elites in academia and the MSM. How many college professors are against gay marriage for example? How many MSM editorials have you read against gay marriage? This is an issue which the liberal elites are pushing and they will probably succeed, as other such issues, starting with small support, also succeeded.
