Ok, this is yet another blog post I didn't want to write.
To put it simply, the latest LGBTQIAP+ flag, that most recently pushes transgenderism, is a highly political and highly partisan symbol of the radical-left. It doesn't mean inclusion, in the normal sense of the word.
To many of us who aren't deep-blue progressive Democrats, this flag/symbol is (forgive the redundancy) anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-centrist, anti-moderate, anti-Christian, anti-Catholic, anti-science, anti-woman, anti-American, and anti-reality.
It's the symbol that says straight, white men (and everyone who's ok with them) need not apply. In fact, many who fly that flag hate us and want us to go away... or worse.
Well, I do not condone the indoctrination of weird sex fetishes and proclivities for children. I do not condone child sex-change operations. I do not condone the practice of grooming. I do not condone the terrorism we've seen over the last few years... violent political activism forcing itself on the rest of us.
If Game Hole Con wants to fly their Pride Community flag, that's their right, but I'm not ok with it. Until things change, I'm not going to attend that gaming convention, or any gaming convention that openly supports and endorses radical-leftism.
I'm out. Oh yeah, I also made a video.
In the meantime, I do have a substitute. The 2nd year of VENGER CON is happening next month (July 21st - 23rd) in Madison, WI. It's much smaller, but we won't push wokeness on you. The choice is yours!
Sincerely,

p.s. If you can't make it to VENGER CON II: Electric Boogaloo, then I recommend purchasing one or more luxury hardcover Cha'alt books right over here.
So sad that gaming has to be involved. However, it is nice to know who the smucks are. They proudly wave flags even.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad. Especially, when companies go woke and then belly-up. Gamers are more liberal than most other industries, so they'll survive... but they won't have our dollars. Don't give money to people who hate you!
DeleteI see that in the typical fashion of people like this, they have to practice exclusion under the guise of inclusion. Conventions were and still should be, a safe place to take a child to. Anyone of any orientation was always welcome to attend. We just never had to advertise these things because it has absolutely nothing to do with the hobby. We went there to play games and buy our geek books and sundries, not to virtue signal. If there are people there who advocate for things like puberty blockers for children, thanks for the heads up. I'm very pleased not to be in the same space with them.
ReplyDeleteWell said, hoss.
DeleteWell at least nowadays "the worm has (started to) turn." Boycotts can go both ways, and so many libtards (harsh I know) are finding out it takes no special talent to be a rude, bigoted, slanderer! (As I just demonstrated lol)
ReplyDeleteI said at the beginning of this woke culture/political movement that they were opening Pandoras box. You cant expect your opposition NOT to employ the same tactics that you do. To do otherwise and cry foul when they do is simply childish.
Do unto others and whatnot.
Indeed, hoss!
