And minotaur probably wonders why the majority deplore the disgustingly arrogant minorities.

How to win friends & influence people. Obviously the example of Hillary has not sunk in, & probably won't, with this type of blind arrogance.

Actually, this minotaur wonders why people make unsubstantiated statements that pose as irrefutable fact. And he can also see a crass, homophobic slur when it is made. When people have to resort to that you know they are not playing with a full deck.

But what if the right-wing USA "religious" establishment which very much includes the "catholic" bishops actually won the recent election?
This prophetic essay provides an interesting perspective.

Hi there MINOTAUR...

I totally agree with you, HASBEEN'S probably employed quite the erroneous locution when referring to homosexual males. Sodomite has far greater acceptance throughout the heterosexual community, whereas lesbian is better accepted by females than some of the less complimentary epithets that have found common usage among the community at large. Both groups have managed to grab much of the political limelight in recent times which is laudable, given the precise size of their actual demographic within the community perhaps.

I guess alone it's an interesting issue. But as the Trump election showed, when the inner city, high-rise, artistic, placard wielding, hemp-dressed elite chat about marriage over lattes while blue collar and rural middle Australians see jobs moving overseas, people become disillusioned with the way of things.

The myth persists that it was angry white men that gave the election to Trump.
The truth is far more complex, as West argues in his own roundabout way

It's still a mystery why anyone would voote for Trump, especially if they were
a. a woman
b. Latino
c. black or mixed race
d. had any education past about 3rd Class
e. mildly intelligent

But then demagogues have always appealed to the masses in a way that educated people couldn't understand !
