Resistance and Assimilation

Joe: "Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated!"

What? For some reason it just struck me how the HRC logo looks kinda like a 'happy' BORG cube, glowing from within, that horrible yellow light that spells DOOM. Maybe I'm over reacting, and goodness knows I'm trying hard not to do that, but the writing is on the wall. It's not pretty, and I will NOT be renewing my support of the HRC this year. Or probably ever again. Yeah, right, it was for the greater good, do things in steps. No, it's called bait and switch, and there is no way to hide that. Humanity lost big with the ENDA debacle, all of humanity, not just the "T" portion. With Joe and his political agenda, HRC doesn't stand for equality.

"Read my lips, NO NEW TAXES!!!"

So do we have to put up with another 4 years of Joe? What's HIS term limit ... Oh, wait he's a hired gun, we can fire him can't we? Not another 4 seconds of Joe, let alone four more years. Write the HRC and "JUST SAY NO TO JOE!!!"

Remember who? Why? How would anyone know?

Okay, I'm a bit annoyed. More than annoyed. Novemeber 20th is supposed to be the Day Of Rememberance, the GBLT Day Of Remembrance.

GBLT people all over the country coming together, honoring people who have been lost, not forgetting what has happened before. Great idea, wonderful idea, one I fully suport in everyway I can. Every year that I've known about it I've gone.

Except this year.

Why? Because I couldn't find a DOR event I could get to. I searched for weeks, and then, found an event couple of towns over from mine. Great, I finally figured out when and where it...

...was! Three days before.

ENDA died a terrible death because of a lack of knowledge, education and community. Communications is the cornerstone of all three of the above concepts, and the community just doesn't have any going on. Publishing days and locations AFTER they have already happened is like Joe Solomese going on for years about how only an inclusive ENDA will be supported. The SECOND the knucklheads inside the beltway decided to throw a curve, Joe and the HRC Political Action Committe sold out anyone who's gender wasn't perfectly binary and basically told everyone that in the grand scheme of political grand standing, everyone was expendable. So much for an inclusive bill...

Thanks Joe and the HRC. Thanks for telling me I'm unimportant compared to your own political agenda!
