How you can push back against Mozilla/Firefox's gay marriage thuggery

What You Can Do

It is important that people give Mozilla pushback--and a lot of it--because the less people suffer the consequences of this kind of behavior, the more it will be invited in the future.

You want Christians to experience a new and even worse persecution than what they're facing now? Do nothing.

You want to fight back? Here's what you can do . . .

 

1) Mozilla has a web page where you can leave feedback on its Firefox browser.

THAT WEB PAGE IS HERE.

At the time of this writing, the feedback in the last day has been 93% negative, and many of the comments are withering. You can read them here.

 

2) You can tell them of your displeasure by social media, including:

“4) If you own a web page, you can install code that either blocks Firefox and redirects users to a page explaining why Mozilla needs pushback or you can install code that doesn’t block Firefox but does cause Firefox users to receive a notification concerning the situation.
HERE’S INFO ON THAT.”

Just posted this to the Mozilla feedback site! :)

And choose what? Chrome? Google is an even bigger advocate of the gay agenda. Boycotts aren’t what they used to be. Most companies are owned by large conglomerates that could care less about your political stance. A 1% drop won’t reduce corporate bonuses by a drop; it will only mean less of a Christmas bonus to the employees at the bottom of the totem pole. Worst case, some of those folks will get laid off while the executives continue laughing at your efforts.

The ONLY thing that matters is keeping gay-friendly Google happy, and this uproar does not affect Google.

Then perhaps users should switch browsers. How about Bing? Thank you for sharing that research with thread visitors.

“Chrome” is based entirely on “Chromium”, which has no connection to Google. You can safely install Chromium without worrying that you’re stuck with “we’re not evil” Google.

Impressive that the negative “spike” is not it’s forth day.

Also interesting that even before this hit the “sad” number many times out numbered the “happiest”. Maybe that is natural, since people are more likely to bitch than praise, but maybe not.

California law outed Eich.

I wonder how Eich's contribution became public knowledge. Did the IRS out him?

A California judge ruled that contributions to the traditional marriage act had to be made public. The Gaystoppo keeps track of the contributors and their careers. They attack whenever they see an opportunity.

In Oregon, a couple will soon open a small store in Portland. The Gaystoppo searched their Facebook page, found some traditional marriage comments and stirred the pot, getting the Oregonian to "out" them and target them.

The new McCarthyism: "Do you NOW,. . . . or have you EVER . . supported traditional marriage?"

Kudos to those in previous threads recommending the work-alike Pale Moon browser to replace Firefox – very close to the same experience, and the Import function brought in nearly every configuration setting & my extensions.

I just downloaded and installed it. You need the profile import tool to bring in all of your Firefox settings, addons, and bookmarks.

It's based on Firefox code, looks and quacks like Firefox and appears to behave like it in every way that matters. Most users will never notice the difference.

I won't use Chrome for that reason -- homosexual friendly.

 

Catechism of the Catholic Church

2357 Homosexuality refers to relations between men or between women who experience an exclusive or predominant sexual attraction toward persons of the same sex. It has taken a great variety of forms through the centuries and in different cultures. Its psychological genesis remains largely unexplained. Basing itself on Sacred Scripture, which presents homosexual acts as acts of grave depravity, tradition has always declared that "homosexual acts are intrinsically disordered." They are contrary to the natural law. They close the sexual act to the gift of life. They do not proceed from a genuine affective and sexual complementarity. Under no circumstances can they be approved.

How does using Chrome constitute pushback. Google probably agrees with Mozilla’s action.

Chrome is just a temporary parking spot for me until I can find a browser that is not completely sodomized. The move itself should speak volumes.

SeaMonkey.

the closest to the much-missed (by me at least) Netscape Communicator Suite.

I installed the Pale Moon browser yesterday and uninstalled Fire Fox. Then sent Mozilla a message via their own blog.

The Pale Moon install was easy and looks and feels like Fire Fox... except it is faster. There is an optional conversion program for bookmarks and history. Works fine!

Oh, BTW... I haven’t used google as a search engine for several years. Duckduckgo or Bing is it for me.
