North Dakota GOP platform so grossly anti-alternative sex and gender that no one will admit who wrote it

Huffington Post - The North Dakota Republican Party voted this spring to approve its 2020 platform and included language calling LGBTQ people unhealthy, dangerous, manipulative to children and “voyeurs who wish to prey on members of the opposite sex.”

But in a bizarre twist, after it started getting press attention last week, the same GOP officials who voted on the homophobic language are now condemning it and saying they don’t know who wrote it or where it came from.

The anti-LGBTQ section of the platform, referred to as Resolution 31, is as offensive as it is outdated in its claims about queer people. You won’t find it on the party’s website anymore because the party pulled it down. But a reporter for The Forum of Fargo-Moorhead nabbed a copy of the platform before it disappeared.

This N.D. GOP platform is basically diagram for the formation of a Theocracy, and a Dominionist's wet dream. We look back at early Europe as being primitive, but as 'sophisticated' as we may think of ourselves, there are still those individuals who fail to learn from History - or are ignorant of it. The aim may be simply arrogant, thinking their personal beliefs are 'true', and therefore should Destroy all others. Or... possibly this GOP led crusade is opportunistic, and individuals merely want to Rule v. Govern through any means possible.
