Poli-rant! April 7, 2006 - 0:44:17
What on today? Hmm, I think politics! Not even because of the local elections or anything, just in general. Topic: Politics, Subtopics Civil Liberties, Democracy and Hypocrisy. Kay, so most people know that I'm a pretty moderate person, I agree with neither and disagree with both, slightly. As well as being indecisive, I also consider myself a democrat. In the loosest sense of the word. I personally am pro: -Choice, with the justification that I am not a woman, nor do I have a uterus. It's kind of not my worry. -Death Penalty. In certain situations. Child killers and other heinous crimes deserve it. You don't kill your kids without some kind of capital punishment. -Gay Marriage. I'm biased on it. I want to marry the person I love, regardless. My issue with both sides is that BOTH of them are narrow and dogmatic. You can't be a Democrat and be pro-life. You can't be a Republican and be pro-choice nowadays. There is no comprimise, and that's what Democracy is. Comprimise, one that is voted for by the people, for the people. Why don't people just listen to each other or think about what they personally want? Why do people vote on a party basis. Another problem I have is when either the Right Wing or the Left Wing says: "Let's be politically correct and not offend anyone." Okay. Right Wingers are going to offend gays ALWAYS, mostly because I have met certain gay people who are simply unwilling to listen to what the right has to say. There are exceptions, but they are few and far between. I know I'm offending someone, but I'm gay, and if you don't like my opinion, you're a hypocrite, mostly because, if you agreed with me about Political Correctness and then disagreed when I offended you. And the Republicans are not the only ones who hate political correctness. It's the Democrats that have bred it, really. The Democrats, in their need to look completely and wholly pure to the world, have crafted themselves into something the opposite. The facts are like this: Gays are going to be stepped on. Minorities are going to be stepped on, and I hate to say it, my sister's Asian, and she's had her fill of racism before. That's the hypocrisy. Sad but true, we as humans can't please everyone, get over it, Humans of the world! I'm also hyper feminist. Mostly because, like my friend Margaret Cho (She's not really my friend, but only two other celebrities are considered my friends, Sandra Bullock, and Karen O) says, "Everyone should be feminist, because, well, didn't you come out of your mother?" Then there's the Christian Right. Okay, I have no problem with them, other then to say "WTF?!" Okay, Christianity's most sacred and holy ingredient is kindness shown toward others...So why do they preach about all us gays going to hell? I kind of understand why they would be pro-life, and I don't know why, but I think they think it's murder or something. Oh, and that reminds me, what did President Bush even WIN on in the 2004 election? I say it was gays and choices, personally. Also, what did Kerry have going for him? I mean, honestly, I wanted to sleep through most of the things the man said, people who even did VOTE for Kerry only voted on the ABB scale. The Anybody But Bush theory that has gotten so many Democrats through the last six years. Sorry if I offended anyone, oh wait, no I'm not. This is America. I can say what I want. ********EDIT: I'm sorry that some of this doesn't make sense, I'm really tired and it's just random things that have been on my mind since yesterday******** - Yushadonga |
