As a member of the LGBT community, this is what I fear in the near future...

8. I really don't understand people like Thiel and the Log Cabin Republicans.

It is like they look at a snarling pit bull that has blood dripping from it’s mouth and are sure that it won’t kill THEM.

I am a heterosexual, Black, business oriented progressive Democrat. The business and sexual orientation means fundamentalists and republicans would have many targets ahead of me if they assume total control. The progressive Democrat part means that I likely would get walked to the gallows somewhat well ahead of Ben Carson and Clarence Thomas (although in a dystopian world, white supremacists would insure that all of us met the gallows).

I believe what is happening is that Thiel and The LCRs know that a world where they get forced underground or wiped out won’t happen, their wealth and influence will insure a safe harbor for them. But less fortunate people won’t be remotely as lucky, and this is why the calculations of Thiel and others is go enraging to me.
