Hold on, I've been thinking hard about the success of cons and pubs in framing the debate. "Defense of marriage," values, all that. I also picked up the "Birth Tax" idea here and I like it a lot.
In looking for the starkest way of all to call attention to conservative homophobia and hate, and call down shame upon their heads and hearts I coined the above. You would use it like this:
"To conservatives gays are just the new niggers."
"You're a conservative. To you, gays are niggers."
"America knows about people like you. You think gays are just niggers."
Etc., etc., etc.
Make them defend. Laugh while they try to draw some distinction. There is none.
I'm gonna use it, hard and heavy.
What do you think? Gays?

2. Nah. We've been faggots forever. I'm used to that one. |

:evilgrin:
I know what your getting at. And it's good your thinking about framing. Back to the drawing board with this one though.:hi:

3. The "N" word is repulsive |
|
and I'm offended that you even suggest such a thing!
I have conservatives in my family and they would NEVER use that word, whether they are opposed to gays/gay rights or not.

5. Yes, conservatives are good with words |
|
Not so good with actions.
The fact they don't call them niggers doesn't mean they don't think of them as niggers. Get it?

6. I understand the point you are trying to make. |
|
But this word is not appropriate for discourse on Democratic Underground.
