How The Game Is Played…(continued)
Via The Daily Gotham… Are you a republican candidate facing a tight race? Well then play the gay bogyman card for a few quick last minute votes…
Note in particular, this comment from a poster in Wisconsin…
Be aware that above brochure is the exact same template used against several Democrats in campaigns around the country over the last several election cycles, including here in Wisconsin. I believe the "source" for the brochure template ("just add your name and you opponent’s one the respective dotted lines and print") is Donald Widemon’s AFA.
They probably have a print shop dedicated to turning out those, and other anti-gay pamphlets. When I refer to the anti-gay religious right as a hate machine I am not being melodramatic. I’m serious. It’s a big business with them, and they treat it exactly like a business would, complete with dedicated subsidiary operations that exist only to support the parent’s business operations. They have "think tanks" and publishing houses and consumer research operations that do nothing but work on demonizing gay people in order to bring money into their bank accounts, and votes to their chosen political candidates. And its all funded by the same handful of right wing billionaires. I often wonder if the Holocaust came to Germany and Europe via similar means.
