195: Colonize, Contradict, Condemn / Non-Citizens with Guns

Talk Back to MeTwo events in recent history share a common thread. The White House loudly declares the 31st of March to be the Transgender Day of Visibility, and on Easter nonetheless. Not long before, an Obama appointed Judge adheres to the Second Amendment, but for a man who entered the United States Illegally. What do these two events have in common? Strategy. The news that a Judge appeared to side with the Second Amendment when it came to a man who entered the United States illegally divided Gun Culture. However, this is unlikely a simple divide and conquer strategy. Not long after, the attempt to promote a queer holiday, not directly in place of a Christian holiday, either opted to replace it, or something more nefarious. It illustrates a worldview that treats either Christianity or Queer as a religion, relegating the other to a mere fashion statement. Not to be mistaken as a mere misuse of terms, this episode delves into both events, and illustrates the possible strategy of both, inspired by a theology of self worship.
