Things didn't change. There's nothing new under the sun. Alexander the Great had his Bagoas in Persepolis, Richard III his Piers Gaveston in England. The New York Times and the Democratic Party changed when homosexuals cashed their political favors. And other favors.
Don't sit still for it. Change stuff back. And start throwing people out of the military, out of politics and policy, out of education.
The Lords Ordainers took care of Richard and Gaveston. The gods took care of Alexander, for his hybris and blasphemy. We don't have to eat crap because twinkletoed editors at the major media have engineered the firings of the last decent straight people in media.
Fight back.
