I wonder if any of them understand (or care, if they do) that they're effectively confirming what every staunch opponent of gay rights loudly claimed would be the end result of passing gay rights into law.

I was thinking about this, within the context of the song by the SF Gay Men’s Choir, and several ideas come to mind and none of them are that they’re actual paedophiles.

  1. They are singing/chanting because they enjoy winding up those who are suspicious of them. They’ve given up making an effort at compromise and now they’re just laughing at anyone who gets upset - seems foolish to me and I’m sure it makes gay people in less safe environments nervous.

  2. They’re pulling a power play. They’re demonstrating that they can pretty much say (and possibly, do) anything and the media, if it even bothers to report it, will back them.

  3. They’re mistaken, they thought that we had all agreed that jokes about other people’s children are funny - and don’t realise that saying that to most parents could result in your needing dentures for the rest of your life.

  4. Similar to 2. they think they’re untouchable and can say anything they like and get away with it because they’re either protected or no one would dare do anything (refer to 3.).

  5. They are massive, massive cunts.

  6. They are used to their echo chambers online and offline and have no idea what the world is like for the vast majority of people. They are so self-absorbed that they think that their existence is of concern to everyone and attention is what they crave.

they've been "affirmed" so many years by everyone they interact with--academia to Twitter and the ACLU--that their brains are pure silly putty, and their own crowding-out of mannish gay guys, non-dick-sucking lesbians, and dysphoric trans women from the rainbow that they don't even remember what being a "minority" even means: they're small fish, but they managed to drain their pond

they're like those 3-lb. dogs with the bulging braincase that go nuts incessantly and scream for 5 hours because somebody walked by their balcony and they can't see that they're gone but they heard footsteps, then charge a laid-back actual dog or get carried off by sparrows
