Yesterday, we learnt that gay businesses were preparing to utterly destroy another gay business, because the latter asked ‘for a reasonable debate’. The excuse was that @ALLIANCELGB was a “hate group”. A group of 4 gay/bi men discussing their own issues is now deemed “hate”.../1
This included one of the founder members of Stonewall. Didn’t matter. “Hate group!! Hate group!” Strange that the same rules don’t apply to, say, The London GAY MEN’S chorus, no? No L. No B. No T. Surely it follows they, too, must be a “hate group”?
I couldn’t attend sadly.../2
But I can tell you this madness HAS to stop. Now, we, as gay men, are seeing what women & lesbians have been subjected to whenever they choose to meet as a group. “Hate group!! Hate group!”, being screamed into meeting rooms from outside, windows rattling, threats, abuse, .../3
..even physical assaults. This is happening right now, people.
Debate is doomed. Shut down. Deemed beneath them. Abuse, after all, is so much easier, and how does one come back from being called a “HATE group”? Of course, the “hate” they refer to is never specified, (JKR..?)../4
But it no longer no matters. “They want to erase trans people, they are debating our existence, they want us dead!” Do you really believe that?? No one, but no one I have ever come across has even thought that & yet, here we are.
And don’t think they won’t be coming after.../5
..your Bi Chess Club, Lesbian Bowling Club or Gay “massage evenings” next. We’re very nearly there. Lesbians not welcome at Pride, because, no, they don’t fancy a penis attached, thanks very much etc etc.
I won’t go on. You get the drift.
Yesterday was a pitiful day. Pitiful.
