      Meanwhile the “LGBT lifestyle” got way more sedate than I’d remembered.pic.twitter.com/u6WEslb6Wo

      A controversial take of mine is that “family values” conservatism actually did win the “culture war", so much so that the LGBT movement needed to embrace it in its broader fight for social, political and economic equality.

          Isn't the fact that marriage rates are falling and have been falling for decades an argument against "family values" winning the culture war?

          Reminds me of an essay in Alain Locke’s “New Negro” noting how black Americans in the 1920s adapted the ways of white America for “respectability.” This is why I worry not about Muslims in USA. American democracy is transformative and drives conformity to core American values.

          It's been my experience that everyone, unless completely bent, loves their family. Maybe it's dumb to ascribe “family values” to conservatism just because they claim it. Clearly, “family values” are really just human values shared by all but the absolute worst.

          Queer politics used to, almost by definition, include a rejection of nuclear families and sanctioned monogamy at their core. To say nothing of how trans issues became separate from gay issues.

          Of course, 'family values conservatism' also involves being married at least 3 times.
