Every group and interest needs an advocate. Those in the liberal
media are quick to mock the idea that some groups (e.g. men, white people,
straight people) would ever have anything to complain about. However, when you get
past the modern, liberal academic idea that everyone is just their group and
individuals don’t matter, you realize that injustice happens to everyone. Some
groups, of course, are much more prone to it (women more so than men, people of
color more so than whites, etc.). And so, more energy and resources should go
towards protecting their interest. But everyone needs an advocate. Even Jesus
Christ is described as an advocate for all who put their faith in Him (which
can be you if it isn’t already – some recommended resources: http://www.cru.org/how-to-know-god/would-you-like-to-know-god-personally.html,

(1 John 2:1).
The problem has arisen in many circles where those who advocate for
other groups are being drowned out by those in their movement who advocate
evil, outlandish, or otherwise ridiculous views and then express and advocate
for them. Because advocacy is so important (especially for minority groups), it
is important that sanity is brought back into the discussion. Here are a few
examples, and more are likely to come in the future.
