James Dobson is dead. Problem is, there are more like him still living.

Here is an extensive obituary that cuts to the truth.

Finally. This awful homophobe made the world a significantly worse place by his living in it. His brand of hate was tremendously influential in the modern Republican Party. Future Americans should look at Dobson with contempt and disgust, much like the racist scum of our collective past and of the Trump administration today.

I wanted to call it Focus on Your Own Damn Family. Complacency was rampant even then.

…. the time are closet cases. As per Dobson’s death they say don’t speak ill of the
dead so all I can say is, “good he is dead.” How many families did he rip apart with
his anti LGBT rhetoric? How many little queer kids were hurt by their parents because
they believed Dobson’s lies?
