Eugene Delgaudio: Gay lobby pushing hate and violent intolerance of conflicting views

Left and Right agree: Gay "marriage" brings in choking, authoritarian social conformism


Eugene Delgaudio, President of Public Advocate says "An imposed political dictatorship or regime is the result of a society when the ability to hold a dissenting opinion goes away. This thought controlled environment makes it unsafe to object to the actions of those around you."

Hilary White of LifeSiteNews.com reports While pro-family advocates have noted the incredible rate at which the homosexualist movement has gained the political upper hand in the last five years, others are voicing concern about the shrinking "social space" in the public discourse for those who still object to "gay marriage."

Some pundits on the left and the center-right are warning that as the homosexual movement gains legislative ground, the freedom to object is narrowing and those holding out against it are increasingly under threat. The stunning advances made by the "gay movement" some are saying, is not a triumph for social freedom, but for an increasingly brutally enforced social conformism.

Left-libertarian British journalist Brendan O'Neill warned in a column in Spiked, that in 20 years of writing on political issues, "I have never encountered an issue like gay marriage, an issue in which the space for dissent has shrunk so rapidly, and in which the consensus is not only stifling but choking."

The change in public opinion, O'Neill added, can best be described as a "conformism, the slow but sure sacrifice of critical thinking and dissenting opinion under pressure to accept that which has been defined as a good by the upper echelons of society: gay marriage."

"In truth, the extraordinary rise of gay marriage speaks, not to a new spirit of liberty or equality on a par with the civil-rights movements of the 1960s, but rather to the political and moral conformism of our age; to the weirdly judgmental non-judgmentalism of our PC times; to the way in which, in an uncritical era such as ours, ideas can become dogma with alarming ease and speed; to the difficulty of speaking one's mind or sticking with one's beliefs at a time when doubt and disagreement are pathologised."
