Queer History 117: The Boys of Boise Scandal by Wendy🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🌈
“In 1955, the sleepy city of Boise, Idaho became ground zero for one of the most fucked-up anti-gay witch hunts in American history. What began as arrests of three men exploded into a moral panic that would rip families apart like wet paper, crush reputations under its boot, and drive some to blow their brains out—all under the bullshit guise of ‘protecting the children.'”

Scottie's Playtime 
Hi. I strongly recommend everyone find time to read at least the first post mentioned here. It is so similar to what is being pushed today by powerful religious actors pushing their church doctrines as morals that everyone must live by even if you don’t believe in their god. Some quotes from the article. Hugs
The Boys of Boise scandal wasn’t just about homophobia—it was about raw power. Those with fat wallets and connections skated away clean while ordinary people got their lives blown to smithereens.
The scandal mirrors other moral panics throughout our nation’s screwed-up history. It erupted during the McCarthy era when America was shitting itself over Communists, deviants, and anyone who didn’t fit the white-picket-fence fantasy.
In the end, this wasn’t about protecting a single damn child. It was about power, control, and the brutal enforcement of sexual conformity—a lesson we better burn into our collective memory before we repeat this bloody history.

Also I wanted to say I read the other ones listed. All were informative and well worth reading. It was just the Boys from Boise stuck out to me as similar to the attempt to remove the LGBTQ+ from society happening today. Hugs

Yep. I saw that, too. It reminded me of every time you’ve written that RWNJs want to take us back to the 50s.
