Who can say that equality is a bad thing? That the equal start in life for everyone should be ignored? That it is not commendable to protect the weak and vulnerable groups in society?
No one. This is exactly what the ideologues of the equal rights movement rely on. What was the slogan under which the campaign for legalizing homosexual unions in France was conducted? Mariage pour tous. In other words: marriage for all. The right for everyone to adopt children. No one should be privileged while others are deprived. It sounds noble, doesn’t it? Certainly, if it is noble to exploit the gullibility of those who are committed to democratic principles, misleading them about your true intentions. Let us not be deceived: these ideologues are tirelessly working towards a society of “caricatured” democracy, of blind, mechanical equalization (those of us who lived through the era of communism know well what this is about); they are preparing a world where “security” will be built through the pervasive erasure of gender differences.
Do you think I’m exaggerating?
Take a closer look at this process in any country, and you will clearly see its brazen face. For example, some time ago, we were astonished to learn that a Swedish parliamentarian proposed to eliminate the “inequality” between genders concerning public restrooms. Everyone should use them equally. You see, it shouldn’t be that some use them one way and others another! It’s simply unbelievable!
Do we even realize the direction in which the ideologues of uniformity are pushing us and how they are manipulating us? It seems that it has become a matter of survival to learn how to decipher their words. When they call us to embrace diversity, we should expect initiatives aimed at dehumanizing us; when we hear beautiful stories about how everyone has the right to a family, we should know that they are preparing to bury the family as a whole; when they show great concern for the feelings of unfortunate people who want to adopt children but cannot, we should be absolutely clear that they do not care in the slightest about the children themselves. It is truly necessary to exercise discernment to distinguish between the counterfeit they are offering and the real precious gem, and to remain vigilant not to fall into the trap set by traders and demagogues from ancient times to the present day.
It is also necessary to say loudly: we, who have lived through “real socialism,” refuse any moral participation in any kind of equalization, disguised as equality. We do not want to live in a new form of communism—even if it has a “European” face. One experience was enough.
