Wrong headline Mey Rude. The appropriate one:
Mormon Ken Jennings won't support Gavin Newsom for president due to transphobia
But I comprehend Mormons love of indoctrination.
Now repudiate your stupid religion, Ken.
Imagine if a man with that kind of raw brainpower didn’t spend so much of it maintaining the cognitive dissonance of being a ‘liberal Mormon’.
Brandon Sanderson, beloved author and Ken Jennings’s college roommate, has spoken on this.
He feels he can do more good by being a voice of progressiveness within the Mormon church than by leaving it. I can respect that.
Because raping kids in churches is more progressive than sending civilians to deathcamps and genociding queers.
Do you retrospect what you respect?
I respect people trying to make a regressive organization less regressive. If they go around publicly decrying the group, that group is more likely to simply reject them than to consider what they’re saying.
You just described the neoliberal tactic for the past 60 years of deescalating regressives, that created Donald Trump…. If you respect the deescalation of the child rape groups to stop raping less, you have 5 ethno genocides LDS has to deescalate further. Native Americans are not pleased with LDS’s current subjugation.
