Mark Dice - Liberalism - Find a Cure

Others are echoing this psychotic sentiment. “Let’s Make Mother’s Day More Inclusive,” is another headline from a feminist blog. 418“In this day and age of diversity and inclusivity, it is about time that we made Mother’s Day more inclusive too,” the author pleads, and also praises the decision of supermarket chains which, “made a conscious effort to reduced the use of the word ‘mother’ on its Mother’s Day cards.” 419

One conservative commentator responded to this madness, saying, “I mean, my mom is dead, and I’m sick of getting advertising e-mails asking me if I’ve bought her anything for Mother’s Day yet, but I’m not going to expect the whole damned thing to be canceled or renamed just because of my feelings. I just, you know, deal with it — which is really something that more people should be encouraged to try more often.” 420

Since those infected with the liberal pathogen have a problem with Mother’s Day, you can guess they also hate Father’s Day as well, for “perpetuating toxic masculinity,” “gender stereotypes” and “heteronormativity” (meaning heterosexual couples are seen as the standard or normal, while the LGBT-whatevers are seen as “unusual” or abnormal).

On Father’s Day 2018, NBC News published an op-ed titled, “This Father’s Day, men are experiencing a crisis of masculinity. The solution? More feminism.” It went on to say, “Men experience violence and oppression because gender norms are not changing. In other words, feminism isn’t killing men — toxic masculinity is.” 421

The Sydney Morning Herald published an article titled, “How Father’s Day and Mother’s Day Teach Gender Stereotypes to Kids,” that was written by a man who says, “I try to teach my two boys to challenge these traditional male roles, to question what it means to be masculine, and to not pigeonhole members of any gender. But I can see they already have an aversion to pink and the only recent superhero film they have not been excited about is Wonder Woman . The sexist crap is leeching in, no matter how hard I try.” 422

He went on to suggest, “Perhaps the whole thing [Father’s Day] needs a rethink. Especially given the growing diversity of families, whether it be single parents, blended families, same-sex parents or grandparents that are steering the parental ship… What would be wrong with just one Parents’ Day where we celebrate keeping our kids alive together in our myriad forms?” 423

An activist named Dr. Red Ruby Scarlet (who insists that’s her real name) is trying to get Father’s Day renamed to “Special Person’s Day” so children without a father around won’t feel left out. 424“We have single parent families, satellite families, extended families, lesbian and gay families,” she said, and feels Father’s Day isn’t “inclusive” enough for them.

Snopes, the Internet “hoax” debunking website, posted an article “debunking” the claim that radical feminists were calling for an end to Fathers Day, and used a meme someone created showing two women holding large signs that read “Father’s Don’t Deserve a Day” and “End Father’s Day.” 425

While the photos were photoshopped and that’s not what the signs in the original picture said, the idea behind the meme was true because it was ridiculing the radical feminists who really do want Father’s Day abolished. In fact, the Huffington Post published an article in 2017 explicitly titled, “Three Reasons Why Father’s Day Should Be Abolished.” 426

Leftist activist group GLAAD, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, released a “Father’s Day Resource Kit” for the media, where they complain that, “The lives of gay, bisexual and transgender parents and their families are often absent in Father’s Day coverage since print and electronic press reports often focus solely on straight parents. GLAAD encourages journalists to include gay and transgender families in their coverage of Father’s Day. This toolkit provides story ideas and suggestions on how to make coverage of Father’s Day more inclusive.” 427They sent their “resource kit” to all major television studios and advertising agencies hoping to get their ideas incorporated into the plots of shows and commercials.

The ADL published a “guide” for schools and teachers to make “classrooms inclusive for all families,” which recommends, “In discussions about family, actively discourage the concept of a ‘traditional,’ ‘average’ or ‘normal’ family,” and says, “If you are going to commemorate Mother’s and Father’s Day, consider making the day more general like ‘Family Day’ or ‘Parent/Guardian Day.’ If you decide to go ahead with the language of Mother’s and Father’s Day, be more inclusive and allow children to include other female and male family members or friends such as aunts, uncles, grandparents, family friends, etc. If children have two moms or two dads, allow them to create two cards/gifts for these occasions.” 428

The feminist magazine Everyday Feminist recommends “Practicing Feminism for Father’s Day” and says that, “we embrace feminist struggle against patriarchy as key to creating healthy families.” 429Of course, creating healthy families is the exact opposite of what liberalism does and it is the root cause of creating dysfunctional ones! And the traditional family is literally enemy number one of liberalism, which is why we have to preserve and protect it at all costs.

Public libraries are now encouraging small children to become gender benders. The Brooklyn Public library hosted an event called “Genderful” that was organized by a nonprofit group called “If You Want It” that’s dedicated to “expanding the definition of gender.” The event included a performance by a transgender “woman” who looks like a Harley Davidson biker in drag, who says, “For kids, I feel that gender is a lot more fluid. It’s just something that’s not as a part of your daily existence or your interaction with friends and if you withdraw them from certain gender coding situations, kids are just kids when it comes down to it.” 430

Marie McGwier, the cofounder of “If You Want It” says, “There’s a lot of conversation around the difference between someone who grows up in a world where they’re made to be this or that, compared to a world where we can just kind of offer kids the opportunity to explore their gender on their own and to land where they want to land.” 431

Public libraries in San Francisco, New York, and Los Angeles are now holding “Drag Queen Story Hour” where, you guessed it, drag queens read books to young children. There are videos of these events on YouTube where you can see dozens of young children, aged three to ten who are brought in by their “progressive” parents to have them listen to drag queens read them books. 432

And they don’t just read the children any old book. They read them books about gay and transgender children (or other characters) like Worm Loves Worm. One drag queen asked the children, “Who wants to be a drag queen when they grow up,” and started singing a song and dancing: “The hips on the drag queen go swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish.” 433

“Drag Queen Story Hour is fantastic because it addresses all these issues of gender fluidity and self-acceptance, and all of these topics that are real. They’re very, very real,” said Kat Savage, who works at the Brooklyn Public Library and supports the events. 434

On the Drag Queen Story Hour official website they explain that, “DQSH is just what it sounds like—drag queens reading stories to children in libraries, schools, and bookstores. DQSH captures the imagination and play of the gender fluidity of childhood and gives kids glamorous, positive, and unabashedly queer role models. In spaces like this, kids are able to see people who defy rigid gender restrictions and imagine a world where people can present as they wish, where dress up is real.” 435
