If they have the right ideas and ideology, they kind of are. But what you said below about not normalizing the gender identity stuff is a good point. I'd be happy if we settled on 'live and let live' but still held firmly to traditional norms.
live and let live was what enabled them in the first place, you're not going to get any resemblance of traditional family values unless forcefully crushed the degeneracies
I get the slippery slope argument, progressivism is always a slippery slope. But 'live and let live' is quite workable in a strong society. It only enabled them because we don't live a strong society. We live in a society weakened by decades of insidious propaganda, and which is being subverted from all angles.
I can see the writing on the wall. I know there's going to be a tremendous, long overdue pushback against this degeneracy, and I know the pendulum is going to swing too far in the other direction. It's inevitable at this point because the degeneracy went too far in the first place.
But it still should be said: You can keep norms and traditions that discourage public degeneracy while turning a blind eye to consenting adults who do their own thing in private. Freedom is important to the fabric of society, and we need to defend it on an individual level even when it involves things we don't like. But the degeneracy we're faced with now, that absolutely needs to be driven underground.
How long until Trump 2024ers start saying their MAGA transgenders are "based"?
