Yet, gay marketing professionals (and activists) Marshall Kirk and Erastes Pill, recommending political strategies designed to lead to, as they put it, "The Overhauling of Straight America" (Guide Magazine, November, 1987), suggest:

"Portray gays as victims, not as aggressive challengers. In any campaign to win over the public, gays must be cast as victims in need of protection so that straights will be inclined by reflex action to assume the role of protector...Straight viewers must be able to identify with gays as victims. Mr. and Mrs. Public must be given no extra excuses to say `they are not like us'... Our campaign should not demand direct support for homosexual practices, but should instead take anti-discrimination as its theme" (Emphasis the authors').

"Make the victimizers look bad... The public should be shown images of ranting homophobes whose secondary traits and beliefs disgust middle America. These images might include: the Ku Klux Klan demonstrating that gays be burned alive or castrated; bigoted southern ministers drooling with hysterical hatred to a degree that looks both comical and deranged; menacing pugs, thugs, and convicts speaking coolly about the `fags' they have killed or would like to kill; a tour of Nazi concentration camps where homosexuals were tortured and gassed."

"Members and front organizations must continually embarrass, discredit and degrade our critics... When obstructionists become too irritating, label them as fascist or Nazi or anti-Semitic... Constantly associate those who oppose us with those names that already have a bad smell. The association will, after enough repetition, become `fact' in the public mind."

Perhaps the supreme irony underlying this name-calling by gay extremists was revealed in a recent Washington Blade (D.C.'s gay tabloid) "First Person" article (January 31, 1991), in which ACT UP/D.C. founder Eric M. Pollard made the following startling admissions:

• "I have helped to create a truly fascist organization..."
• "The decision to create ACT UP/D.C. was conceived when I and another early member attended at OUT! rally. I had taken copious amounts of LSD. We were impressed with the energy, and with the self- righteous anger of the crowd."
• "We conspired to bring into existence an activist group that... could effectively exploit the media for its own ends, and that would work covertly and break the law with impunity... Under the influence of powerful, illicit drugs, it really seemed like a good idea" (emphasis added).
• That the group subscribed to consciously "subversive modes, drawn largely from the voluminous Mein Kampf [by Adolf Hitler], which some of us studied as a working model. As ACT UP/D.C. grew, we struck intently and surgically into whatever institution we believed to stand in our way..." (emphasis added).
• "I have left ACT UP, more correctly, they have thrown me out for insisting on the viability of individual dissent" (emphasis added).

A further sampling of Hitler's statements regarding use of the "big lie" technique may provide insight into gay militants' use of propaganda:

"The size of [a] lie is a definite factor in causing it to be believed, for the vast masses of a nation are in the depths of their hearts more easily deceived than they are consciously and intentionally bad. The primitive simplicity of their minds renders them a more easy prey to a big lie than a small one, for they themselves often tell little lies but would be ashamed to tell big ones" (Mein Kampf, British Foreign Policy Association translation, 1935).

"Something therefore always remains and sticks from the most impudent lies, a fact which all bodies and individuals concerned with the art of lying in this world know only too well, and hence they stop at nothing to achieve this end" (Ibid.)

"All propaganda must be so popular and on such an intellectual level, that even the most stupid of those toward whom it is directed will understand it. Therefore, the intellectual level of the propaganda must be lower the larger the number of people who are to be influenced by it" (Ibid., 14th edition, p. 197).

"Propaganda must not serve the truth, especially not insofar as it might bring out something favorable for the opponent (Ibid., p. 260).

"Through clever and constant application of propaganda, people can be made to see paradise as hell, and also the other way round, to consider the most wretched sort of life as paradise" (Ibid., p. 376).

Reisman concluded that, despite "homosexual claims of fascist persecution -- and requisite `gay' loathing for fascism... In contrast to similar straight publications, up to 5% of THE ADVOCATE [content] glamorizes specifically nazi features and costume while the prevailing `gay' tough guy culture (i.e., `thoughts, emotions, manners, tastes habits, skills, art'... fits the key features of a fascist culture" (A Content Analysis of THE ADVOCATE, 1972-1991, p. 57, Dr. Judith Reisman, 1992, used by permission of the author).

Reisman continues: "Overall, 72% of THE ADVOCATE data socialized a set of core values -- glorified nazi dress, language and `blonde' Aryan male beauty and brutality; contempt for `fems, fats' and blacks; threats toward `politically incorrect'... homosexuals, churches and others -- romanticizing `fascist' culture to a `younger generation.' Nazi costumes/fascist concepts are a common component of THE ADVOCATE and thus largely condoned by prevailing `gay' cultural values" (Ibid, p. 57).

Reisman comments: "No equivalent straight magazine (TIME, NEWSWEEK) has ever carried an advertisement to join the nazi party... Beyond the general claims of gay supremacy and focus on dominant white muscle men in black leather (symbols of nazi power) issues of THE ADVOCATE often carry ads of men in fascist caps, wearing black SS-type hip boots or carrying the inevitable SS whips and such. These culminate with ads like the `Slave Ad' April 9, 1991: `ACHTONG! Teutonic Lord Muscle Master...'" (Ibid, p. 57).

Gay extremists often attempt to gain sympathy by recalling the extermination of thousands of homosexuals under the tyranny of Hitler's Third Reich. But Reisman points out a paradox: "The World War II notion of Hitler's persecution of homosexuals is based on his assault of `fems' [many of whom were Hitler's political enemies] not gay nazi supermen. Many of Hitler's `Inner Circle,' and the key men who recruited for the party, and who led the party, including the most brutal military brigades, the Storm Troopers (SA), and the Infantry School -- were homosexual: Ernest Roehm [head of the SA], Rudolf Hess and Gerhard Rossbach, while the infamous Goering was also said to be a type of transvestite... Walter Langer, writing in The Mind of Adolf Hitler (1972), noted that Rudolf Hess `was generally known as Fraulein Anna.' There were many other [gays close to Hitler] and it was supposed, for this reason, that Hitler too belonged in this category" (Ibid, pp. 57-58).

Reisman adds in a footnote: "See Berthold Hinz, Art in the Third Reich (Pantheon Books: New York, 1979) about the display of brazenly homosexual nazi male imagery and concepts, and see especially S. William Halperin, writing in Germany Tried Democracy: A Political History of the Reich from 1918-1933 (Norton Books: New York, 1946). Here, Halperin describes the role of public homosexual activists within Hitler's nazi party, even to major posts of import" (Ibid, p. 65).
