In short, Eastman's hostility to US democracy and to its endorsement of the rights of minority communities including the LGBTQ community, doesn't arise out of nowhere: it has a specific right-wing Catholic origin, an ideological center also shared by the group of Supremes who now control the Supreme Court.

But good luck getting the mainstream media to report on all of this.

The Catholic Church has, since it’s founding, never ceased in its efforts to rule the world religiously and politically. Considering their past and current behavior, many of us consider this a very bad idea.

If these folks cannot prevail as a minority in a democracy that respects majority rule, they have no compunction at all about trying to overturn the democratic structures that grant power to the majority, and imposing their minority rule.

God is on their side, after all, and that justifies everything. And, conveniently. god turns out to be a version of themselves write large — white, male, and heterosexual.
