You know what they say. Get woke go broke. Keeping gays away from vulnerable boys was so popular that when the BSA pandered to gays the normal membership fled.
Thinking of the cliché which defines insanity as doing what has been done before, and expecting a different result; perhaps a higher form of insanity involves failing to see or acknowledge the result.
When organizations and businesses pander to freaks, perverts, madmen, and other degenerates, alienating much of the mainstream population, they very obviously lose a lot more mainstream support than what they gain from the degenerate fringes to which they pander. It happens time and time again. I think that the madness of the
left wrong isn't just in thinking that they can do what has been done before, and get a different result than they got all the many times before; I think they truly cannot even see the result. They see what they think should happen, what they want to happen, even though it is the opposite of what any sane person can clearly see is happening.
