--The Silent Compliant Majority!--
"Occasionally a single episode illustrates an entire revolution. A male swimmer pretends to be a female and breaks records in swimming competitions. An anonymous young lady on the swim team musters the courage to complain. A man disguised as a female swimmer is shocking, but the complicity of university officials—and the fear that silences dissent—are far more disturbing. Is the cross-dressing male the poster boy for modern American revolutionaries? Or is the cowering anonymous young lady a more accurate image?
"Many of us are also silent when confronted with similar absurdities in the workplace. Fear of vindictive superiors is always ancient, always new. Apprehension over the wrath of a powerful and unforgiving bureaucratic state is relatively new in America. So when corporate or government agencies sponsor gay-pride events, most employees play along. We convince ourselves that such cultural sideshows are no big deal. Why risk a job, a pay raise, or a promotion on such absurdities? We disguise our fear with the appearance of consent that comes with silence and compliance. Live and let live.
"Bureaucratic elites desire more than compliance. They want our hearts, souls, and minds. “Diversity, equity, and inclusion” training officers behave like KGB agents (or the dread “flying monkeys” in The Wizard of Oz). They monitor expressions of dissent on the job and social media and administer pedantic training modules to ensure “best practices.”
"The bureaucratic revolutionary elites have revealed the tyranny of their moral relativism. Of course—as in the Soviet Union—not everyone is in the position to dissent in public. But the vocational freedom of celibates—priests and single men—give them a greater responsibility to push back. (They may find that even those strange flying monkeys celebrated when the Wicked Witch of the West melted.) Where are the fathers?
"We could use old-fashioned male outrage to protect our daughters on university swim teams. Do not comply."
