Southern-based family-dining chain Cracker Barrel was blasted for going “woke” by some of its biscuits-and-gravy-eating customers after posting an image of a rainbow rocking chair to celebrate Pride Month. Aside from serving oversized portions of country staples, the chain is beloved for the Tennessee-made rocking chairs that line the porches at all Cracker Barrel trinket-filled Old Country Stores. Thus, the chain honored Pride Month in June with an Instagram photo of a rocking chair with each wood slat painted a different color of the rainbow in nod to the Pride flag. “Everyone is always welcome at our table (and our...

Over the past few years, the transgender movement has pushed its way into every nook and cranny of American culture, and major institutions and authorities have tried to force all people to go along with it. But now, the tide is turning.It started quietly, with biological science and objective reality being given a backseat to internal feelings and chosen identity. To become a member of the opposite sex, all one needs to do is declare it to be so and others will be forced to acknowledge it is so.Next came the reengineering of language. The word “sex,” which defines a...

According to Rabbi Cahn, 8 police raided The Stonewall Inn - hundreds attacked them, causing the police to barricade themselves inside for protection. The "brave protesters" then attempt to set fire to the place to kill them. (I think that's what I heard from the video - YMMV - if so, please correct down thread - that's a quick summary, note word-for-word). If I'm reading correctly, The Stonewall Inn became a national "park" on June 24, 2016. This was under pResident Obama and the ceremony was attended by Jerry Nadler, Bill DeBlasio and a park ranger (an earlier pic that...

Opposition is in full swing to the Los Angeles Dodgers’ on-field ceremony honoring the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, an organization of “drag nuns” that the Catholic League calls an anti-Catholic hate group. Thousands of Catholics, other Christians, and even some people of the Jewish faith gathered in a parking lot near the Dodgers’ stadium on Friday afternoon to pray ahead of the game. Later, the religious groups marched to Dodger Stadium, shutting down one entryway on Vin Scully Avenue.Weeks of momentous opposition led to the drag nuns being announced on-field to a mostly empty stadium, while receiving some boos from...

With all the chaos that has permeated the cultural arena over the last decade or so, it’s easy for conservatives to get discouraged. Things have truly gone off the rails, with a level of depravity that was once thought to be unthinkable becoming mainstream.At the forefront of that has been the battle over transgender ideology. Children are being pumped full of puberty blockers, and in some cases, being physically mutilated by surgeries, all under the ridiculous guise of “transitioning.” Nothing is sacred for the far-left, not even the health and well-being of children.(Also see: Jordan Peterson Tweets Full ‘Trans Ideology’...

Wake up! White House ‘pride’ flag signals ideological takeover of the US by an occupying forceThis is all about regime change, about whose flag we are now forced to salute. The nation has been overrun if not conquered by the LGBTQIA+ political machine, rooted in woke neo-Marxism.Listen to this article0:00 / 5:55(LifeSiteNews) — The Biden administration’s horrific display of flags of the United States of America subordinated to the rainbow flag at a White House “Pride Celebration” is yet another indisputable indication that a not-so-stealth-hostile ideological takeover of the government of the U.S. — and much of American culture —...

An oxymoron is a rhetorical self-contradiction, like combining the word “gay” — meaning some peoples’ deliberate self-identification with the shameful, disease-spreading lifestyle of sodomy — with the word “pride.” Another example is defining the social goal of “diversity and inclusion” to require the active suppression and exclusion of pro-family Christians, Jews, Muslims and secular traditionalists. America is awash in delusions, contradictions and double standards these days as the crazies who stole the 2020 election continue their vain attempt to conform our institutions to their irrational worldview without collapsing it into chaos. Nowhere is that clown-show debacle more ludicrous than in...
