Why Conservative's can't make culture

This guy thinks ‘Leave it to Beaver’ was an actual representation of the 1950s. Ha!

I’ll try and finish and I know I am on a tangent but the proposed topic is worth looking into to gain some understanding and even empathy for gay folks. Often times a young person presenting anything slightly outside of traditional gender norms is physically and mentally abused even for showing minor variances. Sort of a chicken and the egg scenario. Can you beat or shame these tendencies out of someone?

A good article. Admittedly, I did not make it to the end (and honestly probably won’t).

Please understand that a good deal of folks who are gay or trans are often reacting to a deeper trauma that has happened to them such as physical or sexual abuse. Is it the correct response? I don’t know but often it is the mechanism that keeps them alive too see another day. This is not all cases but certainly something to be sensitive too, simply for the basic reason of trying to be good to your fellow humans. Perhaps even with some empathy they may see a healthier path for their life. I have personally taken this approach with gay and trans folks I know in my life and I have helped them to live happier and healthier lives because of it. This is based in the Christian theology I was taught as a child. Following the concept of Christs compassion for all Gods creation.

I’m not on this site much. Also, that’s not a fair comparison IMO. Neither Israel or Palestine have any actual intentions of doing anything other than eliminating each other. I’m talking about the US where people are working to help communities of color gain a positive image of themselves in popular media as this not been the case since the beginning of the modern film and television era. From ‘Birth of a Nation” all the way to “COPS” there have only been a handful of positive portrayals of black folks. It matters greatly to see people that look like you portrayed in a positive and aspirational light.

So, “Brown people bad”? That’s what I’m hearing here.

Also, this guy: let’s start making culture. (Doesn’t even pay for his photography).

On the topic of culture. What exactly is wrong with advertising becoming more diverse and showing minorities in a positive light in media? Is it just”‘Brown people bad” or “Diversity bad”? Remember that historically minorities have not had many positive images of themselves in large media campaigns.

When I see a Tide commercial with a black guy at home folding laundry I don’t really see the negative there. Would you prefer he be doing it in the ghetto with a gun in his hand? What is wrong with a positive portrayal?
