I’m far from the most righteous woman in the world, nor am I a spiritual leader, so I don’t usually comment on other people’s levels of religious observance. Sometimes, the lack of a moral component gets preposterous, especially for local elected officials.
On a sunny Sunday afternoon, September 24, the California State Senator from San Francisco, Scott Wiener, took to social media to document his whereabouts. He posted pictures of himself surrounded by hefty leather-clad crossdressers, adding:
Today is Folsom Street Fair! One of the best days of the year in San FranciscoWe kicked it off with the amazing Donna Sachet’s 25th annual Folsom Leather Brunch. I’m so grateful to Donna & all of the kick ass community leaders who make our city a better place.
A few hours later, he posted two of his own shirtless photos, commenting simply “Folsom!”.
The Folsom Street Fair is the open-air bondage orgy in San Francisco every fall. The legendary blogger Zombie visited the event in 2007 and filed an X-rated report. Attendees engaged in public sex acts, flaunting every imaginable perversion. According to the Post Millennial write up, this year’s “fair” was no different.
For all of Wiener’s talk of community building, the orgy has the opposite effect. Sure, the individuals in attendance were as pleasant to each other as BDSM behavioral norms allow. But an event that revolves around what should be private habits will necessarily repel traditionalist neighbors and anyone uninterested in what others are up to in their bedrooms. And since a central section of the city is reserved for a fetishist orgy, families — the demographic that should be central to any healthy society — are pushed to the margins.
In short, the Folsom Street Fair is one of several quintessential San Francisco gatherings designed to stake out the territory for sexual deviants. What is being formed and solidified is not a community but a clique, an ever-growing enclave for those in the know designed to exclude people with different moral standards or aesthetic preferences. Because the locals are increasingly focused on pleasure-seeking, they are organized not around mutual respect, common interests, and transcendent values with the goal of benefiting civilization, but kinks and other superfluous activities.
Wiener complimented his associates on being “the kick ass community leaders who make our city a better place.” Still, San Franciscans have difficulty coming together as a functional community. The city is not a good place and has only worsened. It’s notorious for rampant property crime, empty real estate, and fentanyl deaths. These problems are massive and have been emergent for decades. So far, the locals are unable to tackle them.
Scott Wiener’s solution for drug poisonings, to establish “supervised injection sites” where junkies could get high under the watchful eye of government employees who’d revive them if necessary, was vetoed by Governor Newsom. Newsom, who appears to be running for president, recently vetoed another of Wiener’s babies, a bill concerning divorce proceedings that would favor the parent who wants to “transition” a child to the opposite sex appearance.
In the past, Wiener, who comes across as a scrawny nerd but courts favors with the party crowds, successfully passed bills that enabled human trafficking and lowered penalties for pedophilia. He now appears keenly interested in stopping “book bans” or removing pornographic materials from public school libraries. All of it makes perfect sense, considering Weiner’s dedication to serving the needs of San Francisco’s leather daddy “community.” His constituents demand consequence-free promiscuity and drugs, and he authors his bills accordingly.
Wiener is more than a mere tool of degeneracy. Notice how he said that Folsom Street Fair is “[o]ne of the best days of the year in San Francisco.” It’s odd to hear from a man who puts the Star of David in his social media profile to signal his Jewish heritage. It just so happened that this year’s marquee San Francisco event coincided with the eve of Yom Kippur.
Yom Kippur is the most important day in the Jewish calendar, the time of fasting and asking for atonement. It follows Rosh Hashanah and ten days spent in selichot prayer. This is the time for renewing our connection with the divine. For less observant Jews, Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah are the two occasions to attend synagogue.
Wiener, however, can’t let his relationship with the Creator distract him from his chosen lifestyle. I’m not sure he knows we are in the High Holiday season — otherwise, he wouldn’t be talking about the best days in San Francisco. The State Senator’s language reveals where his priorities are.
I don’t know — and don’t need to know — what the rising Democrat political star did at that orgy. Nevertheless, I can think of several transgressions entailing from his mere presence on Folsom Street for which he should have been atoning. Exhibitionism is bad enough, but the fact that he was hanging out there to advance his career is further damning.
Power in San Francisco comes from corruption. Politicians are beholden to the masses who have little use for God. Recall former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi getting excommunicated for her pro-abortion opinions. Her constituents found that position stunning and brave; this is what we call San Francisco values. Here, immediate gratification is held in the highest regard, and political machinations supplant moral and religious concerns.
We are approaching a shake up in the California political order. Senior politicians like Pelosi and Senator Diane Feinstein are dying or will be retiring. Newsom might be moving on to the White House. Behind them are people like Wiener who think that sexual activity belongs in public spaces but can’t begin to pretend that God has a place in private lives.
