I can't...I just can't imagine the thought process that went into this. Someone had to write these lyrics. MULTIPLE people had to read them, and nobody caught on and noticed that this was 100% NOT the message to send??

They have, obviously, since deleted the video, but people were naturally quick to save and upload it so they can't hide their shame.

"trolling" like this is only acceptable when you're in a position of power. These imbeciles have no idea what it's like for gay people outside of san francisco. San Francisco is almost basically the global earth headquarters for gays and lesbians.

There's just something borderline narcissistic about imbeciles who dont understand what it's like outside their bubbles. So, these people aren't plotting, theyre not strategizing, theyre not planning. Theyre not doing anything. They just think their incredibly small area of the planet; their shitty little neighbourhood is safe and have no idea what it's like outside of the gayest city on earth? So they just stand there like idiots thinking progress will just fall into place and that it's inevitable.

It's not that theyre annoying because they dont know how this will be used against them. It's the "trolling" part where they dont take into account the other gay kids in mississippi or alabama or eastern europe. They dont act according to the best interests of their community because their understanding of their community is 200 people within their small neighbourhood.

Not for lesbians. San Francisco is very hostile to lesbians, actually, because it's so full of MTFs.

When you find out, let me know. I've heard good things about both DC and Miami.

    They were so preoccupied with 'owning the cons' that they threw any sense of pragmatism out the window.

    I'm..stunned by the fucking stupidity of this dumb ass song and video. Like, to start with, it's not even funny in the least? It's obnoxious. AND considering all the real shit I read every day about the transing and fucking up gay kids with puberty blockers etc, I am aghast that these queens make a joke of it. "It was a JOKE, it was SATIRE!" as if homophobic maniacs are really into subtlety. This was a GIFT to our haters. Great going, queens.

    Because most people DO conflate "gay" and "trans" because duh, LGBT, for years, and holy SHIT I have seen some seriously ugly rightwing responses. Someone gay is in DANGER because of this piece of shit song, Alex Jones and QAnon and all the maniacs are gonna go after gay men now. LEAVE THE KIDS OUT OF IT, god DAMN it. Idiots.
