Vivek Ramaswamy: Without God or Country, the Left Has to Invent Causes Like the Transgender Movement to Fill the Void

Craig Bannister : Apr 20, 2023  Cnsnews.com

"Now, we live in a country where you can marry who you want, if you want, how you want, when you want – and it’s precisely then that we reach this culture of vehemence with gender identity, itself, being the new obsession. It’s because, when you run out of human rights and civil rights to stand for, you have to find new ones, instead – because you don’t have God, you don’t have country." – Vivek Ramaswamy

[CNS News] – The American Left ran out of human rights and civil rights to fight for, so they created the transgender movement, presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy says. (Screengrab Image)

Liberalism is never sated, Ramaswamy suggested Monday in a tweet, introducing a video clip of comments he made in a recent interview:

"Right when we achieve racial equality, we obsess over systemic racism. Right when we legalize gay marriage, we obsess over sexual identity. Right after we avoid a supposedly looming ice age in the 70s, we obsess over global warming. When we're lost, we're always on the hunt for a cause."

When people stop basing their identity on things like God, the flag, the family structure and hard work, they need to fill the void with something else, Ramaswamy said in the interview, discussing the current state of the American Left:

"Temporarily, you can fill that void, with a hunt for civil rights, right, a hunt for human rights. That's a big part of what occupied this movement, even since the 60's, since the 70's, is to say that ‘Okay, even though I don't believe in those things, I can fight for secular justice, okay, rights and equality.'"

"Then, they lost that, too. Why did they lose that? Because we got to the Promised Land," Ramaswamy said, using the issue of gay marriage as an example:

"Now, we live in a country where you can marry who you want, if you want, how you want, when you want – and, it's precisely then that we reach this culture of vehemence with gender identity, itself, being the new obsession.

"It's because, when you run out of human rights and civil rights to stand for, you have to find new ones, instead – because you don't have God, you don't have country."

"'You took my civil rights struggle away, too – now, I'm going to make one' - that's the transgender movement in a nutshell," Ramaswamy concluded. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
