‘You can’t cancel Pride, no matter how hard you try’: GLAAD CEO on some GOP rebranding June
As I have posted before on this subject this is an attempt to push a fundamentalist Christianity on the entire rest of the public. It is an attempt to enshrine Christian nationalism and the doctrines of one sect into the laws we all must live by. The people doing these attacks want to make any and all LGBTQ+ content seem dangerous and harmful which would require warning labels. It is about demonizing the way other people live because the hyper religous don’t like it. The Christians are free to live as they wish and think as they want but they can not be allowed to oppress and require everyone to live as they do. They are a minority and the polls show the majority of the public doesn’t share these haters belief that LGBTQ+ people are dangerous or bad. The majority of people are live the way they want to and let others live the ways they want to. Republicans keep using attacks on trans and gay marriage to distract from real issues, to enrage their base to excite them to vote, and to demonize a minority group so that the status quo can go back to the 1950s cis straight white male hierarchy.

Some GOP lawmakers are attempting to rebrand June, which has been nationally recognized as Pride Month, as “Nuclear Family Month” in some states. GLAAD CEO & President Sarah Kate Ellis joins Laura Barrón-López to share her thoughts on this and a new poll around support for LGBTQIA+ communities.
A Right-Wing Legal Group’s Lawsuit Over a High School Wrestling Match Falls Apart on Video
This is another Riley Gaines person trying to say she lost only because her opponent was trans. They claim that the wrestler Kallie Keeler was sexually assaulted. The issue is that all the wrestlers asked and the experts say the moves were standard wrestling moves. Even the coach says that fingers often end up in places they don’t belong in normal activities in public. I was not a wrestler, but I know someone who did wrestle in high school. I had joked with him I couldn’t have done wrestling with all the hands on the crotch of the wrestlers touching each other’s cocks and balls or fingers in the butt. He told me it was very common and if you watched many boys got up from the floor during or after a match with hard ons or wet spots on their uniforms where their dicks are. The law suit is an over the top attempt to get wrestler Kallie Keeler a bunch of rewards that she did not earn and to punish all trans athletes. It also is so she can repeat Riley Gaines track of using her anti-trans hate to be on TV and make a lot of money she wouldn’t make if she was not pushing bigotry and hate. Plus if the opponent was a cis girl and accidentally did the same thing she wouldn’t have won either. This is a Christian family who feels entitled to award seh did not earn. Athe the end of the video he reads responses and comments from anti-trans people who said it was a commonly used move and sexual touching happens. Hugs
The right-wing legal group Alliance Defending Freedom has filed a sweeping federal lawsuit on behalf of Washington high school wrestler Kallie Keeler, claiming she was sexually assaulted during a match against a transgender opponent.
The problem? There’s video of the match, and according to multiple wrestlers, coaches, and wrestling experts I spoke with, it shows nothing controversial. Just legal, routine wrestling techniques.
The lawsuit goes far beyond the match itself, targeting the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association (WIAA), school officials, coaches, and state authorities while demanding that Keeler’s losses to transgender athletes be erased from the record books and that trans athletes be barred from competing against her in the future.
Despite the dramatic allegations, Pierce County prosecutors declined to pursue criminal charges, and even some conservatives who oppose transgender participation in sports have criticized ADF’s characterization of the match.
Sodom & Gomorrah is not about homosexuality
Dan McCellan again goes to great lengths to explain that the bible doesn’t talk about homosexuality. He first explains that the frame work of same sex attractions did not exist in the people’s worldview. The social frame work for sex was not desire but power / authority over others with the penetrative man being the top of the hierarchy with the receiving person the woman was lower in status because she received the man as he penetrated her. If a man penetrates another man the man doing the penatrator is emasculating and feminizing the man receiving the penetration, lowering that man’s status to the level of a woman. In the culture of the time of the bible status as a man was paramount so to show dominance over another man they would rape them. Simple. He explains why they did not do to Lot’s daughters what they did to the Levite’s concubine. He goes over the reasons that Genesis 19 is about males using dominance over the other. He explains it a lot better than I can. But the main thing to understand is it was not same sex orientation that was the issue it was one man dominating another by penetrating him, which caused a loss of status that was what they were trying to say was a sin. In other words men don’t ruin the good thing we have going by making some men have a lower status or women will see we are not really so much better than them. Hugs
