I am reading the most fascinating book right now. Just the first chapter of The Marketing of Evil has been quite brilliantly informative as to revealing how America has been ‘sold on homosexuality.’ I am no marketing strategist, but the two men behind the new and improved gay liberation movement emerging out of the 1988 War Conference…well…they absolutely are/were*. A far cry from the then usual screaming, ranting, protesting activists, author David Kupelian describes Marshall Kirk and Hunter Madsen as follows:
“Kirk and Madsen were not the kind of drooling activists that would burst into churches and throw condoms in the air. They were smart guys – very smart. Kirk, a Harvard-educated researcher in neuropsychiatry, work with the Johns Hopkins Study of Mathematically Precocious Youth and designed aptitude tests for adults with 200+ IQs. Madsen, with a doctorate in politics from Harvard, was an expert on public persuasion tactics and social marketing. Together they wrote After the Ball: How America Will Conquer Its Fear and Hatred of Gays in the 90’s.”
This book, The Marketing of Evil, by David Kupelian is chalk full of interesting facts about Kirk and Madsen’s self-proclaimed, three-step plan, outlined in After the Ball, for teaching America total and complete acceptance of homosexuality: desensitization, jamming, and conversion.
The main premise of the book, says Kupelian, which illustrates the audacity of its authors, is that “We can change what people actually think and feel by breaking their current negative associations with our cause and replacing them with positive associations.”
“Simple case in point: homosexual activists call their movement “gay rights.” This accomplishes two major objectives: (1) Use of the word gay rather than homosexual masks the controversial sexual behavior involved and accentuates instead a vague but positive-sounding cultural identity – gay, which, after all, once meant “happy”’ and (2) describing their battle from the get-go as one over “rights” implies homosexuals are being denied the basic freedoms of citizenship that others enjoy.”
And just how did Kirk and Madsen plan to dismiss America’s knowledge of “those five hundred sex partners and weird sexual practices? Answer, according to Kirk and Madsen, you don’t. Just don’t talk about it. Rather, look and act as normal as possible for the camera.”
“When you’re very different, and people hate you for it,” they explain, “this is what you do: first you get your foot in the door, by being as similar as possible; then, and only then – when your one little difference is finally accepted – can you start dragging in your other peculiarities, one by one. You hammer in the wedge narrow end first. As the saying goes, allow the camel’s nose beneath your tent, and his whole body will soon follow.
In other words, sadomasochists, leather fetishists, cross-dressers, transgenders, and other “peculiar” members of the homosexual community need to keep away from the tent and out of sight while the sales job is under way. Later, once the camel is safely inside, there will be room for all.”
Okay, as I said, this book has so much information. We’ve covered desensitization and tomorrow I’ll pick up with “jamming.” But I want to part with a little, personal note. As I’ve read this text, I’ve felt an uncomfortable grip of panic come over me, sending a chill up my spine. I am appalled that a nation built upon a rich Judeo-Christian heritage has been absolutely duped by a couple of Harvard grads and come under the spell of their brilliant, scheming, homosexual agenda. The most important knowledge for me, coming out of this discussion of desensitization tactics, is that the vocabulary we choose to use will either perpetuate the problem or re-sensitize a nation. I will no longer be using the phrase “gay ‘rights’ activists” to describe the gay liberation movement leaders since the more accurate term is homosexual activists. I will no longer refer to the unions sought and clamored for today as same-sex “marriage,” since marriage is and always has been used to describe one relationship and one relationship only – a union between one man and one woman. I hope that all of us will make an effort to re-evaluate our language and make positive changes. Just as abortion has been sold as an imperative allowance toward fostering choice…
“Multitudes of activists – with almost limitless time and energy to devote to advancing their agenda, largely unencumbered by any need to change diapers, pay for dental braces, or attend their children’s soccer games, as do most heterosexual married people – have succeeded in their goal of transforming society. As public relations campaigns go, it’s been an unqualified success.”
Coming up tomorrow: jamming and conversion. We’ll take a look at how, exactly, homosexual activists managed to become cultural heroes while those who oppose the glorification of homosexual sex have been relegated such glowing titles as homophobe, bigot, and tyrant.
Going forward with open eyes, it’s no wonder marriage advocates are so worried about the massive push toward organized, unified activism among homosexual activists. We must match their determination or we’ve lost before the fight has even begun. Please join the DNA. Educate yourself. I wish I could purchase The Marketing of Evil for every individual in America. I guarantee that marriage and family would be quite safe if everyone was aware of the truth of this homosexual movement’s marketing and public relations brilliance that has bamboozled us all.
Yours in chilling enlightenment,
~Pearl
*I have been unable to find any information about whether Madsen is still among the living or has passed on. Kirk died in 2005.

Wow. Sounds like an interesting read. I will definitely be changing my choice of vocabulary!
Thanks for the post Pearl Diver. I was aware of the book After the Ball. It's really as insidious as it first appears.
Insidiouser and insidiouser. (Is that a word? It ought to be.)
“We can change what people actually think and feel by breaking their current negative associations with our cause and replacing them with positive associations.”
The recent actions of the GLBT community have been anything but positive. I guess the majority of them missed the "plan" to break negative associations with their "cause." I don't have any positive associations regarding these people (as a group in general) and I suspect I'm not the only one, given the recent Prop 8 antics. What we used to ignore, try not to stare at and hope our kids didn't see, has now been thrown in our faces...so yeah, we're kind of irritated and no, we don't see any of their influences as positive. Interesting post Pearl. Thanks!
Madsen's activist guidebook is available on the web at no cost. Google will find it.
@Marilee
Thanks! I am eager to make an impact and encourage others to be more conscientious in this fight. The opposition is subtle and we have to be especially discerning in order to remain abreast of the debate and employment of subversive normalization tactics.
@Euripides
Ha! Yes, well, um...insidiouser, huh? Okay, sure. I'll take it.
@Journalista
Thanks for your comment. I am grateful for those who are steady and firm in their resolve to withstand subtle, yet brilliant marketing tactics and public relations gambits.
Just wait until tomorrow's post. I'll be talking about how homosexual activists were guided away from scenes like those following the Prop 8 victory, and into more influential positions, conducive to dogged, intellectual activism in media, news, hollywood, etc.
It's a fantastic read. I absolutely recommend this book to everyone.
Thanks Chairm. Are you referring to After the Ball or is there another activist publication by that author?
Thank you for your blog! It is so refreshing to hear from someone who shares the same beliefs that I do! I am getting so sick of hearing all the whining from the homosexuals, reading your blog helps me have hope for the future!
Pearl, I've googled and haven't refound the PDF version that was available online awhile ago.
But here is an excerpt of a summation written in After The Ball:

Here's another published manifesto that captured the attitude we see on display today:
Gay Revolutionary." Reprinted from The Congressional Record. First printed in Gay Community News, February 15-21 1987
"We shall sodomize your sons, emblems of your feeble masculinity, of your shallow dreams and vulgar lies. We shall seduce them in your schools, in your dormitories, in your gymnasiums, in your locker rooms, in your sports arenas, in your seminaries, in your youth groups, in your movie theater bathrooms, in your army bunkhouses, in your truck stops, in your all male clubs, in your houses of Congress, wherever men are with men together. Your sons shall become our minions and do our bidding. They will be recast in our image. They will come to crave and adore us.
Women, you cry for freedom. You say you are no longer satisfied with men; they make you unhappy. We, connoisseurs of the masculine face, the masculine physique, shall take your men from you then. We will amuse them; we will instruct them; we will embrace them when they weep. Women, you say you wish to live with each other instead of with men. Then go and be with each other. We shall give your men pleasures they have never known because we are foremost men too, and only one man knows how to truly please another man; only one man can understand the depth and feeling, the mind and body of another man.
All laws banning homosexual activity will be revoked. Instead, legislation shall be passed which engenders love between men. All homosexuals must stand together as brothers; we must be united artistically, philosophically, socially, politically and financially. We will triumph only when we present a common face to the vicious heterosexual enemy.
If you dare to cry faggot, fairy, queer, at us, we will stab you in your
cowardly hearts and defile your dead, puny bodies.
We shall write poems of the love between men; we shall stage plays in which man openly caresses man; we shall make films about the love between heroic men which will replace the cheap, superficial, sentimental, insipid, juvenile, heterosexual infatuations presently dominating your cinema screens. We shall sculpt statues of beautiful young men, of bold athletes which will be placed in your parks, your squares, your plazas. The museums of the world will be filled only with paintings of graceful, naked lads.
Our writers and artists will make love between men fashionable and de rigueur, and we will succeed because we are adept at setting styles. We will eliminate heterosexual liaisons through usage of the devices of wit and ridicule, devices which we are skilled in employing.
We will unmask the powerful homosexuals who masquerade as heterosexuals. You will be shocked and frightened when you find that your presidents and their sons, your industrialists, your senators, your mayors, your generals, your athletes, your film stars, your television personalities, your civic leaders, your priests are not the safe, familiar, bourgeois, heterosexual figures you assumed them to be. We are everywhere; we have infiltrated your ranks. Be careful when you speak of homosexuals because we are always among you; we may be sitting across the desk from you; we may be sleeping in the same bed with you.
There will be no compromises. We are not middle-class weaklings. Highly
intelligent, we are the natural aristocrats of the human race, and steely-minded aristocrats never settle for less. Those who oppose us will be exiled. We shall raise vast private armies, as Mishima did, to defeat you. We shall conquer the world because warriors inspired by and banded together by homosexual love and honor are invincible as were the ancient Greek soldiers.
The family unit-spawning ground of lies, betrayals, mediocrity, hypocrisy and violence--will be abolished. The family unit, which only dampens imagination and curbs free will, must be eliminated. Perfect boys will be conceived and grown in the genetic laboratory. They will be bonded together in communal setting, under the control and instruction of homosexual savants.
All churches who condemn us will be closed. Our only gods are handsome young men. We adhere to a cult of beauty, moral and esthetic. All that is ugly and vulgar and banal will be annihilated. Since we are alienated from middle-class heterosexual conventions, we are free to live our lives according to the dictates of the pure imagination. For us too much is not enough.
The exquisite society to emerge will be governed by an elite comprised of gay poets. One of the major requirements for a position of power in the new society of homoeroticism will be indulgence in the Greek passion. Any man contaminated with heterosexual lust will be automatically barred from a position of influence. All males who insist on remaining stupidly heterosexual will be tried in homosexual courts of justice and will become invisible men.
We shall rewrite history, history filled and debased with your heterosexual lies and distortions. We shall portray the homosexuality of the great leaders and thinkers who have shaped the world. We will demonstrate that homosexuality and intelligence and imagination are inextricably linked, and that homosexuality is a requirement for true nobility, true beauty in a man.
We shall be victorious because we are fueled with the ferocious bitterness of the oppressed who have been forced to play seemingly bit parts in your dumb, heterosexual shows throughout the ages. We too are capable of firing guns and manning the barricades of the ultimate revolution.
Tremble, hetero swine, when we appear before you without our masks."

As with After The Ball, activists or their excusers will often claim these writings are more hyperbolic rhetoric than actual game plans or accurate declarations of intent and belief.
But scratch the surface of SSM argumentation, for one big example, and also give SSMers enough rope and they'll hang SSM argumentation with its own stated standards. Attitude, not reasoning, is the force with which they'd hope to influence society.
Their default position is typically the default accusation of The Victim. Yes, there has been unjust discrimination and victimization, but that's not where the actual disagreement exists on marriage and other subjects. In fact, the bigotry charge fits gay identity politics these days as does the routine use of code to say one thing while blatantly meaning something else.
Just look at the anti-8er reflex that "reads-between-the-lines" of Obama's pro-marriage statements. He has said pretty much what Warren has said about marriage, civility, and even protections such as those put forth in the vague notion of "civil union". Plain speaking is not so easy when one's attitude is designed to rebuff all disagreement as de facto hatred.
