Example of how many liberal/dem "pro LGBT" politicians are completely performative with actual homophobia still thriving. Actual gay man was subject of homophobic smear by dem party in an extremely left leaning state (MA). A different gay man votes against blocking consequences and gets called F***T

Holy shit. This is beyond fucked up. Thank you for sharing. Glad that Rising at least picked this story up.

Just goes to show... the "LGBTQ+ community" is not us. Whenever the word "LGBTQ+" is used we ought to mentally replace it with "woke homophobic transtrenders" rather than "LGB". Establishment Democrats are happy to call a gay man "faggot" for daring to disagree.

edit: And I'm politically pretty left, too. This behavior is disgusting.

I think this is really indicative of the danger of identity politics, regardless if it comes from the left or the right. When parties say people should vote for them because of who they are not because of actual policy, it’s bound to create a disingenuous lip service within the party simply to garner votes.

To be clear, i am not promoting right wing politics. I am far on the left and do not see the pro-performance / pro-gender cultural religion as a left issue. It's liberals who use a "cultural left" signaling to pretend they are with the people (economic left) while being pro-elitism / pro-corporation / etc.

The homophobic Human Rights Campaign at it again:

The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest LGBTQ civil rights organization, has endorsed Morse’s opponent, incumbent U.S. Rep. Richard Neal, D-Springfield. The Human Rights Campaign said Monday it had no comment on Morse.

And as an out candidate, he is endorsed by the LGBTQ Victory Fund. But Neal also has LGBTQ support — from the Human Rights Campaign and the Equality PAC (the political action arm of the Congressional LGBTQ Caucus).

Wow i actually hadn't heard that endorsement before but not surprising. The HRC became a clout laundering front group for HRC (Clinton) when she ran. Chad Griffin was a Clinton staffer who got pushed into leadership at HRC prior to HRC's run. They don't give the slightest shit about gay rights anymore. It's all a corrupt slush fund to wave a "credibility" pride flag in front of corrupt establishment politicians.

Lol to them, it's not about what you believe, it's about how you vote. You can be homophobic as fuck yet that's okay as long as you vote for the party that panders (to minority/marginalized groups) for votes.

It started in the dem primary in MA so it was all inside the party. A young progressive guy decided to run against an old corrupt establishment type. The party used it's legal team to help organize a homophobic smear campaign using a student who was looking to get a job with the old incumbent who ended up winning the primary and once you win the primary there is no real competition in the general election.

Absolutely disgusting but frankly not surprising based on the way dems have treated me for not being a dem

I told you it was still open season on gay people, but you didn't listen until the bodies started falling. Metaphorically speaking, of course.
