Sometimes direct quotes are just…Wow. From a profile in The Guardian:
I don’t believe that any minority has the right to create changes that impact on the majority. That’s really the only issue for me.
I can’t keep myself from laughing at that one. It’s just too stupid. This, coming from the fundamentalist Christian personification of Derek Zoolander’s “Blue Steel” look.
The context is that gays are bad and gays shouldn’t have rights and he thinks “ex-gays” are “astonishing.”
(Yes, talentless Baldwin brother, they are, but not in the way you think.)
So, from his own words, we can reasonably assume Stephen Baldwin also believes the following things are bad:
1. Blacks being allowed to marry.
2. Blacks being able to vote.
3. Women being able to vote.
4. Black men being able to marry white women.
5. Haitian slave revolt.
6. Equal Protection Clause in the United States Constitution
7. Desegregated schools
8. Any small gesture to help American Indians.
9. Rosa Parks
10. Emancipation
Right, Stephen? Because any time a minority dares to cramp the style of White Male Heterosexual Christians, it’s totally NOT GNARLY, DUDE, right? RIGHT?
Alec, I’m begging you: This would be a good time for one of your famous “My God, My God, Why have you made my brother so stupid?” public comments.
(h/t Towleroad)
No need for Alec to comment on his brother’s views. Their stupidity speaks for itself.
Heh. Women are actually a slight majority in the US (about 50.8% of the population)… does that mean that men shouldn’t have the authority to make any laws that “impact on” women?
Heh.
But in the mind of the Christian fundamentalist, they will always be the white majority, even once they’ve hit KKK status in the public eye.
Wow, I thought all the Baldwin brothers were more intelligent than this.
He must really be upset about the “changes” that we White people caused the Native American majority that was here before we arrived. Not to mention the damage done by those awful Spanish conquistador minorities on Incas, Mayans, Aztecs, etc. What does he think we should do about it, go back to Europe?
