Every Stinking Day

September 2, 2016 by V the K

Another SJW temper-tantrum, and another episode of Transgender Obsessive Disorder; a collective condition in which America’s elite fret constantly over the feelings of a hypersensitive, mentally disordered micro-minority of the country’s population.

This time, the temper-tantrum comes courtesy of GLAAD over the casting of a gay actor to play a transgendered.

The decision to put yet another man in a dress to portray a transgender woman touches a nerve for transgender people, and rightfully so. It’s yet another painful reminder that, in the eyes of so many people, transgender women are really just men.

That message is toxic and dangerous. It’s what prompts lawmakers in states like North Carolina to legislate that a transgender woman must use the men’s restroom, humiliating her and putting her in harm’s way.

Having achieved gay marriage and pretty much all of their other goals, GLAAD is trying to maintain relevance and donors by latching onto the cause of Gender Dysphoria. Beats having to go out and get real jobs, I guess.

    Correct me if I’m wrong… but I thought GLAAD stood for “Gays, Lesbians, and Allies Against Discrimination”? Implying that it’s for homosexuals, by homosexuals?

    I would say that over 90% of professional activists are just trying to “maintain relevance,” and justify their sinecures, by rocking the boat and then trying to convince everyone that there’s a storm at sea. Because it beats “having to go out and get real jobs.”

    Someone mind giving me a decent list of transsexual actors? It seems like an awfully small pool to have to select from.

    And someone needs to tell these people that they are actors, not re-creators. They didn’t bother to go out and get an actual wizard to play Harry Potter, right?

    How many transgendered actors are there and what is the weight of their box office draw? I notice that Tom Hanks is playing Sully, the airline captain who set down on the Hudson River. Why not Forest Whitaker or Lady GaGa or Conan O’brien’s hair for the role? Obviously much in the way of diversity was short circuited in the determination to capitalize off of white male privilege. Toxic and dangerous and a painful reminder that transgendered folk don’t have an Olympics event, a month of celebration, a special affirmative action program or a Ben and Jerry’s flavor.

    Are GLAAD activists trying be like Tracy Turnblatt from Hairspray?

    So, if only transgender can play a role which portrays a transgendered person; then the logic follows that only gays can play gay roles and only straights can play straight roles.

    Since there are more straight roles in mainstream movies that means a whole lot of gay Hollywood will be out of work.

    As the saying goes: be careful of what you ask for you might just get it.

    A bunch of “thicking” Idiots!

    Legally, it’s Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, modeled after the Anti-Defamation League of B’nai B’rith. Initially formed to counter media bias, much in the way of the Catholic League. Actually had local chapters around the country at the start, as a grassroots organization. Eventually dissolved the chapters and became a (yet another) centralized national organization HQ’d in Los Angeles, focusing on national media and the entertainment industry.

    They lost all credibility for me when they gave Bill Clinton an award a few years back for his “contributions” to the BLTGQXYZ communities. It’s like the ACLU giving J.Edgar Hoover an award for his contributions to privacy rights.

    This controversy is not really new; the disability rights community has long lobbied for inclusion, particularly when there are disabled actors who have a hard time getting roles. In this case, their real beef, IMHO, is because a) Mark Ruffalo, a known and noted SJW who proclaims his support for the trans community is behind it and didn’t cast a tranny actor; and b) Matt Bomer was cast in the role. It’s like casting Kathleen Turner to play Gertrude Stein.

    Who would hire them for a “real job”?

    Couldn’t this make Nick Adams and GLAAD guilty of Misgendering?

    Are we sure Matt Bomer is just Gay? Maybe he identifies as one of the 57 not totally Gay so maybe a little bit trans to get paid $$$ for a movie genders.

    Simon Halls is a very, very lucky man — and they have kids.

    I’m so envious.

    Apparently, a trans actress applied for the roll and was rejected. She is calling out Mark Ruffalo, who has always been a reliable, obnoxious voice for all Social Justice warrior leftists. With this casting decision, he is Benedict Arnold, an absolute traitor.

    Which makes this a perfect example of the left eating their own. Which enables me to not feel not at all guilty about participating in Schadenfreude.
