<![CDATA[Playing to Stereotype]]>Suppose I were asked to write a character who was supposed to be callow, violent and irredeemably stupid. Suppose further that the character was to be a flaming, stereotypical homosexual and liberal, governed by his emotions and irrationally enamored of his own words in spite of being incapable of coherent punctuation.

I could scarce write a more scathing version than this.

We as anarchists are opposed to marriage but we see that this blatantly anti-gay act as a threat to all us gay, lesbian, transgendered and queer folk. The Proposition 8 campaign was used as a medium to instill homophobic fear into the population of California so as to squash queer culture, it is dangerous to let these actions go unchecked and not confronted.

The obvious solution is that if the Mormons don’t want more glue in their locks they should disband. Because nothing shakes someone’s faith like glue in the locks. “Oh, look, dear! Glue in the locks! I must reevaluate my value system!”

Riiiiiight.

I hope they bought a lot of glue. What they don’t know about Mormon culture is that those folks take being “persecuted” as a badge of honor.

Brilliant tacticians, these morons. It’s one thing to shoot one’s self in the foot. It’s another to do it with a flame thrower.
