Are “LGBTQ+ Rights” the Hill America’s World Influence Will Die On?

Linked Male SymbolsBy Selwyn Duke

“LGBTQ+ rights are … a core part of our foreign policy,” said National Security Council spokesman John Kirby last week. He didn’t say if that would be Uncommon Core — but it certainly is to much of the world.

It also may be the hill the last of America’s global influence dies on.

Oh, this isn’t exactly new. In 2011, then-president Barack Obama used U.S. foreign aid as a cudgel to try to pressure African nations into embracing the homosexuality agenda.

It didn’t go well.

African officials described the effort as “abhorrent” and the agenda as “anathema” to most of their continent.

The year before, in 2010….

    A number of African nations have policies of. persecuting gay people . Some have even called for executing them . Should America just sit by and allow these countries to persecute gay people there ? I think not . And in the Muslim republic of Chechnya , Vladimir Putin’s brutal Chechen puppet overlord Ramzan Kadyrov has set up a concentration camp where gay Chechens have been tortured and murdered . How nice of him !
    A vicious America homophobic bigot , the Massachusetts “pastor ” Scott Lively, has encouraged the government of Uganda to persecute gay people there and he has also been encouraging the Russian orthodox church to persecute gay Russians . Barack Obama did the right thing even if his efforts were unsuccessful . And President Biden is carryng on his efforts to protect LGBTQ people in the US and abroad . The International Court in the Hague has been trying to criminally prosecute Scott Lively for crimes against humanity . Good for them ! Countries which persecute gay people are no better than. Nazi Germany in its persecution of Jews . The Nazis also murdered gay Germans .

    It is certainly true that you can be a victim of your own success; Though in this case the rest of the world and US non-elites are the victims of those wielding power in/from the US. I can’t understood the values being promulgated by the West or why our elites are so hellbent on remaking human nature. I used to believe that feminizing men was meant to end wars but that was clearly a false promise. Sad to say, the world will be better off if the US loses its position as hegemon. I only see catastrophe resulting if the US prevails against Russia.
