Hey now, nothing says respect like transing someone gay and male for wearing dresses as a drag performer.

This is what happens when a minority that only makes up about 4% of humanity has to go up against personality disorder-riddled, violent straight men and women.

This has to be satire wtf. “This is why I know more about something I wasn’t alive to see than someone who was there” what the fuck

Fred Sargeant literally helped set up the first Pride in 1970. He shared photos of the event, which were mainly white men. Nowhere in the article does this person give any evidence that trans people were even there. And why ignore the interview Marsha did with Eric Marcus, where they admit they were late to Stonewall? Why not quote the documentary that Marsha was in before they died, where they admitted they were a gay man? Because this person has a clear agenda: ME ME ME ME ME ME ME

There’s never been a trans rights movement. There’s always been a gay Rights movement. GAY IS GOOD. GAY POWER. LOVE IS LOVE. What the hell does trans people have except sucking the life out of our movement?

If trans people are so wonderful, what about Russia? Are all of the trans people going to put on high heels and throw an imaginary brick to save all of the gay Russians that are being tortured right now? Or are they going to wait until they gays fight for their rights and then take all of the credit, like usual?

The use of Latinx alone - spelled wrongly TWICE in two different ways - should be enough to dismiss this fuckwit's addled historic revisionism. The few photos of the Stonewall riot and many of the nights after show exactly who was rioting. Not that Stonewall gave a single LGB person any rights in the first place.

This is the same thing that trans people are doing in the formerly gay male group I used to belong to. Because our founders were "cis" men, they are on a campaign of systematically character-assassinating all of them. It's part of the historical revisionism project.

Whoa. That article's not biased, at all </s>
