Michael Knowles Says Transgenderism Must Be ‘Eradicated’ at CPAC

[onthedarkside]

 

Michael Knowles—right-wing political commentator associated with the Daily Wire—said “for the good of society… transgenderism must be eradicated from public life entirely” at the Conservative Political Action Conference Saturday afternoon.

 

The transphobic comment has prompted reactions of horror, with Tech expert and author Alejandra Caraballo writing that Knowles was “openly calling for genocide against trans people.” John Knefel of Media Matters also labelled the comment “genocidal.”

All talk of sexuality should be removed from public life IMHO.

Keep your private lives private.

Hate speech at its worst.

I'm sure Michael would agree with you and eradicate them quietly if he could.

Let’s keep politicians out of other people’s sexuality.

Knowles has just said the quiet but out loud.

The comment from BritManToo was about keeping sexuality private instead of having it rubbed in our faces continuously, no mention of eradication.

I know exactly what the comment was about, did you also know what my comment was about?

Should read Michael Knowles called for fatwa against transgender.

I’ve never had anyone else’s sexuality rubbed in my face.

 

Tell me, have I been missing out?

I am generally supportive of people being able to make their own choices in life. But, this constant discussion, this constant barrage in our faces, of trans, pan, amoro, cis, non cis, boi, demiboy, dyadic, femme, gender expansive, genderfluid, maverique, etc. is so old, so over done, so obnoxious, many of us find it repulsive and a real turnoff. 

 

Fortunately, it seems to be mostly limited to America, one of the most dysfunctional societies on the planet. And I say that as an American! There is some leakage elsewhere, but it does not appear to be taken too seriously. In the US, it is completely out of control.

A very small miniscule % of folks wants the majority to bow down to all their needs, wishes and demands. You were born a female and you want to pretend to be a male, fine but don't expect the majority to play along. 

 

Would you want your daughter to be forced to share bathrooms and locker rooms with boys who want to be girls. Forking insane. The powers that be know better but they are afraid of being labeled with the many isms that they go along with the insanity.

Geoff Wetrosky, HRC’s National Campaign Director, says Knowles and other CPAC speakers were attempting to appeal to a right-wing audience — and putting trans people and other members of the LGBTQ community at risk.

“Their vile, anti-trans rhetoric does not resonate with the majority of Americans who are interested in solutions, not slander. But that doesn’t mean their transphobic hate and propaganda won’t cause harm,” Wetrosky says. “Their words rile up far-right extremists resulting in more stigma, discrimination and violence against LGBTQ+ people.

Tell me how being cruel to LGBT citizens is kind?

Would you appreciate your government trying to ERASE whatever you are?

My advice, keep a low profile instead of getting in people's faces.

My Brit government has been trying to erase white middle class men for the past 20 years.

Better advice is fight back against the fascists. Their hate policies kill people.

Does not compute.

So what?

Do you want to be cruel to non breeding straight people too?

But you must love lesbian mothers then?

Sounds like one of the "Hitler did some good things" advocates.

 

He definitely won the race to the bottom on the transphobia scale.

 

The Ultra-MAGA Right Wing Republicans are so far out over their skis on trans issues it's mind-boggling. Is there anyone left to go after? Or will they circle back on black, brown, yellow, red, Immigrant peoples?

But it's all about "protecting the children".

 

 

I'm begining to think drag-show performers should carry firearms and claim that their rights cannot be infringed upon.

People just wanting to live their lives as they are is not picking a fight 

It's the fascists picking a fight. They fire up their ignorant bigoted base by targeting people who are different.

It's time for a new left wing and a new right wing. They have both moved too far to the extremes. I would rather vote for ,my dog the way things stand.
