The Gays are Coming, The Gays are Coming!

PageOneQ provides this assessment of American Family Association’s propaganda video “They’re Coming to Your Town”.

The town of Eureka Springs is turning into the “San Francisco of Arkansas,” warns the American Family Association, and it can happen in your town too.

The presentation in the AFA trailer below, “They’re Coming to Your Town,” tells the tale of an uncharacteristically diverse resort town’s government infiltrated by “a handful of homosexual activists” and bent to their will through the enactment of the town’s domestic partner registry on June 22, 2007.

“Watch, and learn,” says the trailer, “how to fight a well-organized gay agenda to take over the cities of America, one city at a time.”

Eureka Springs, most recently, has gotten an honorable mention from unlikely celebrity and Oklahoma House Rep. Sally Kern, who propped it up as an example of the “gay agenda” that she has called a “death knell” and a larger threat than international terrorism, in addition to comparing such an “agenda” to cancer.

Well at least that explains where Sally Kern got some of her bigoted nonsense from. As to the video, view the trailer for the original at PageOneQ. Below is a hilarious parody created by GoodAsYou.

Now all that talk of infiltrating city councils, taking over cities, organized agendas and bending others to their will…that’s a great deal of projection on the part of the AFA. Read American Fascists by Chris Hedges and it will become abundantly clear. For now, this quote from page 151 will provide some illustration of the phenomenon:

This new, exclusive community fosters rigidity, conformity and intolerance. In this new binary world segments of the human race are disqualified from moral and ethical consideration. And because fundamentalist followers live in a binary universe, they are incapable of seeing others as anything more than inverted reflections of themselves. If they seek to destroy nonbelievers … then nonbelievers must be seeking to destroy them. …

They are seeking to destroy us, so of course we are seeking to destroy them, and by the very same means they’ve been utilizing. We are mirror images of them, the epitome of evil and perversion while they are symbols of purity and righteousness. It’s rather like life viewed through the lens of an episode of Star Trek , perhaps Mirror, Mirror or Let That be Your Last Battlefield. The idea that we just want to live our lives in peace (albeit with equal rights and protections) never enters their minds, because they can’t understand how anybody would live other than how they do–eternally fighting to gain and maintain control.

Ugh, when will it end?
