Bravo. I believe the visual of the kid rock violent machine gun dogwhistle of violence against transpeople was a watershed moment in the hate campaign against transpeople. It is a clear message to disenchanted to engage in violence against the trans community. Dylan's can of bud light should be in the Smithsonian
People are sewing arm and leg skin to v*ginas, inverting p*nises, drugging children, decriminalising voyeurism & exhibitionism (Wi Spa & many other cases), performing public obscenities (Pride parades, DQSH), allowing males to compete in women's sports, putting males in women's prisons, etc.
@@meganaxeliar You are literally living on another planet. It is not homosexuality propaganda. It was a Disney movie that included a gay character. Keep being homophobic
I've been actually groomed, by a cis man, and this whole thing makes me sick. I hate seeing people weaponize my trauma to perpetuate their own irrational fear and hatred.
Doesn't change the fact that 47% of all Homosexuals were molested as a child by another Homosexual or that 30% of all paedophile are Homosexuals whilst being 1-to-2% of the population.
I apologize for that traumatic event, but it really shows what the right wants. They don’t care if a cis man is grooming, they care about banning the ability to be lgbtq+, but they are waving the pretty flag of protec da children to rally people and hide their blatant homophobia. It’s especially juicy that those same republicans that ‘want’ to ‘protect children’ also are trying to repeal child labor laws and lower the age of consent. Huh. Almost if they don’t really care about the children. Strange.
@@inklovemailt’s not ok to tell people that they might be trans just because they may be more masculine or feminine why should 6 year olds learn about that i have heard two cases of people killing themselves after being coerced into transitioning
Funny Story: I actually learned about the existence of gay people through the last book in the Captain Underpants series when I was like nine. I don't really remember the exact events (this was like five years ago, mind you). I think the mcs, who are both dudes, travel in time to the future and met their future selves as adults, and one of them has a husband. I was a little confused, but it didn't bug me at all. After I finished it, I asked my mom and older brother about it, and they were like, "Oh yeah, some people love people of the same sex and there's nothing wrong with that" and I was like "alright sounds legit" and moved the hell on. It did not take away my innocence or turn me gay, I'm straight. Honestly, the only people who actually think that a kid knowing the existence of gay people is going to harm them are straight adults who didn't learn about gay people until they were older and think that it has to be like that for everyone. They're really just assholes looking for an excuse for their bigotry.
I think that was the first introduction to gay people I can remember (my mom says I knew earlier, when I was like 3) and I just didn't care that much, the last book was my favorite though
@@U2Two I mean I don't read them anymore and I can't remember half the shit that happened in those novels, but I will forever be glad that young kids will have good representation like that in media. I wish it was more common and wasn't something that is so controversial.
yo i never knew captain underpants had gay rep, that's pretty cool. i only ever read the first couple (i don't think many had been released when i was in the target audience in terms of age range) but that's based, and tbh from what i remember of the books i can imagine that.
We actually had a shooting in a gay bar in our country last year. My teacher said to us -knowing that some of us are queer- that this happened because we talk too much about gay people being marginalized and because we are "solving problems that don't exist". She said that she "has gay friends" and they don't have any problems living in our country, therefore everyone elses problems dont exist either. She said that the death of those kids were our fault. Because we wore pride flags during pride month. While looking me in the eyes the entire time. No empathy whatsoever.
@@007kingifrit Sorry? Are you saying young people don't have problems? How are you going to discredit my my problems? I am a student, but I am an adult. That doesn't change anything for the fact that what you just have said has no merit. Where did you come up with this rethoric? Where you discredited as a child? This take is so sad. I'm hoping that if you want children you'll learn to be a better person and learn empathy. A child's problem is a problem. It isn't less of a problem that an adult's problem.
@@eh1165 you are too young to know what real problems are or what real danger is. while young people in rare cases can have problems.....you don't know what they are
@@007kingifrit yeah uh... young people or not mass shootings are definitely a real danger. It doesn't take an adult to understand that. Especially since events like Sandy hook happen and nothing is done to prevent it.
It is insane that they frame drag queens as groomers, while the same people and their party are unwillig to raise minimum marriage ages and set limits for marriage with parental consent? They completely ignoring the actual grooming that is happening in favour of a fake moral panic and vote grab...
i feel like the raising the minimum age for marriage doesn't compare to this though. Drag queens is a performance with a persona, where as this is just...a law, it doesn't really come in the form of a hobby that will influence children's behaviours because idk how they gon see a law dancing. If we're old enough to vote, why aren't we old enough to get married. And for the second one, I'm not sure what you mean, if i'm interpreting it correctly, needing a parent's consent to get married to a certain person? Because nah man, I've seen too much nparent behaviour in a life time to not know that that's too much work.
@@adamas5925 What they are trying to say is that in the USA a certain political party is unwilling to raise the minimum age of marriage. When people under the age of eighteen or so wish to marry, they need their parents' consent. Republicans do not want to raise the minimum of age of marriage, ergo they don't want to end child marriages. There are certain states where children are being married off with the permission of their parents. People want this minimum age limit to be lifted so child marriages would stop, but the party does not seem to be in the favor to do so. The problem is not people old enough to vote marrying, it's people not old enough to vote getting married with eh consent of their parents.
@@adamas5925 it is about child marriage. In some states you can get married basically from 0 years old as long as you parents consent. The discussion on drag queens is also leading towards legal changes "to protect kids" while these laws remain the same and republicans do not seem to have any concern to change them. This law influences a childs entire life, because their own consent is not needed for the marriage and in some stated they cannot get divorced until they are 18. Child marriage def has more influence on kids than a drag brunch.
I literally had someone start a screaming match with me because we had pride bracelets on our African penguins at our aquarium because we have a same sex mated pair. This couple were LIVID that apparently we’re indoctrinating people into LGBTQ because we’re pretending animals can be gay. And I’m just bewildered, it’s literally a penguin, they choose to mate with another female penguin for life and raise an egg, how tf would we train penguins to be gay. And why tf do you care so much 😭😭
@@Sham_Knubs They have a lot of problems in their own life. But they think they can never be wrong. So, they blame everybody else. Especially people that they think look "strange." Hence why these people tend to be racist too. It's your property. You are allowed to decorate it in any way you wish.
Thank you for your support, i lobe people like you, like you don't have to wear gay flags or anything to show support, supporting and accepting is enough for me
i learned about gay people from a very young age. it did not “turn me gay”, i’m straight. i was not confused in the slightest when i was told what makes someone gay. i was just like, “oh, okay” and that’s it. fuck the bigots who lie about how this shit affects children. just admit that you’re extremely closed-minded and need to make up a justification to hate.
It's similar the other way around too. Someone can not even know what a gay person is and still feel attraction to the same sex, regardless of whether they're able to articulate it or not. Who "influenced" them then? Just because you are kept away from the mere notion of queer people doesn't mean you can't be one. Hell, why is it bad to be gay in the first place, why must we feel the need to keep that idea away from our children? At the end of the day, we are all human, and it is sickening to see the bigots hate on other groups because they're different and need to find a way to justify that hate.
That happened with my sister when she was around six. My mom told her what gay meant and she accepted it and moved on. She came out as pansexual around half a year ago.
I'm almost certain that even you know that you don't fully believe what you're saying. Learning about gay people alone doesn't turn you gay, it's when they actively extend the measures they take to "teach" children about gay people that can change their perspective to adopt that view. Inviting a drag queen, someone who literally is no different to a pornstar, is an already used and overkill method many schools use to "teach" children about gay people. Then, you have the fact that lots of schools every June literally will change their school logo into a pride variant and then cover the entire interior of their school in pride flags; this is indisputably political, not educational. Frankly enough, schools end up neglecting the religious standards of religious students by literally turning what should've been a simple educational facility into a gay pornography range in the process. Conservatives aren't only annoyed about it merely being taught in school subjects, we're talking about the extent to which "teaching children" about pride and where that is seemingly going. People like you will ALWAYS use euphemism to brush it off as "we're just being taught that gay people exist...?" and then refer to us as bigots when really we're saying these methods you're using to "teach" children about gay people are excessive, disgusting and detestably wrong, all the while fully knowing the unnecessary and excessive means that are taken to "educate" children on it. I'm sorry, but the moment that schools partook in embedding a pride variant flag every June (perhaps even earlier) was the moment it shifted from education to indoctrination.
I feel like some people are completely missing the point. No one is saying a 3rd grader should learn every little thing about the queer community, what we're saying is if they are allowed to see a cute straight relationship in a show or movie why can't they see a queer one? If a queer relationship being shown is considered indoctrination then isn't it the same for a straight relationship?
but straight romance is normal, how could it possibly be indoctrination? (/s) it's so backwards and exhausting. "seeing gay makes you gay" all while ignoring all the straight i had to see and still wound up gay. all the cis i had to see and still wound up trans. i'on think it works how these people think it works.
its screaming at the wind. they didn’t teach slavery or the genocide of the natives and they still dont. the education system is for privileged people anyways . if u want a socially educated child, dont pop one out an expect public school to do that. you are an adult thats your job. an if u pop out kids and not adopt a child already born an in need, i dont feel sorry for you anyways. if u can’t educate your child properly then you need them taken an given to someone who is capable and educated in child psychology.
This logic is forgetting straight is the default. It's what's common and considered natural. The same way we would want to show them healthy relationships and not bdsm ones.
@@zelirious4504 a bdsm relationship can be a healthy relationship,what are you talking about? And straight isn't the "default" it's just the most common,but that's no excuse to not teach kid ",hey,not everyone is straight,and we should accept them"or else a lot of them will be taught by their parents who might not accept non straight,and jam lies and false information into the kids head about said non straight people.
Me and my bf both faces shit and the hands of a grown man on a power trip. I was groomed and he was raped and it has nothing to do with the person themselves. A groomer is not a drag queen a groomer is not a gay person a groomer is not a black person A groomer is a groomer
Ok, could we assure to have a minimal decence to keep childen from complex matters ? To explore kid's naivety in exposing on explicit and immoral just seems wrong :/ . LGBT+ has enough support via media, content, etc. With information everywhere, it wont take longer to them to discover that area. Its like a river, we just let it flow to whoever feels like, and thats great. We just can't shove it down like some class-like obligation, the freedom of one ends where it interferes with other's freedom, and it includes childhood innocence right. Bless ur day + I discord with "theres only two genders stuff" , everybody have right to feel what they want to be like. To *themselves*
@samuelrebelo9301 Do you mean that it's explicit and immoral to be queer? It's not like being told that some people are gay is going to ruin kids' innocence or something.
@@uhuh9859 It's not about what people identify themselves as, its their right and freedom as everybody else. I'm about on justifying real obscene acts upon children as pride movement and agenda stuff. Talking about there's gays out there is simple and noble, the problem is about overreacting and overdoing knowledge about in an ill way. We got to to create easy and educational classes as foundations for the child. Dont need to rush as everybody will have a more mature mentality to deal with, later, as this theme is everywhere. So that's why im don't support the LGBT+ itself, but i do for singular and individual non-straight ones. Mb if i did overcomplicate stuffs Still, i disdain the negative feedback on gay, lesbian, etc about what they simply are, on the video.
@@samuelrebelo9301 I'm all for protecting children, but the way you phrase that makes it seem as if the LGBTQ+ community is sexually abusing children, which it isn't. Child abuse happens rarely, but it isn't more common than abuse outside of the movement. In fact, I've noticed a lot of the pride community distance themselves from groomers and those who genuinely harm children. And I've been exposed to pride as a kid, but I still maintained my innocence (until the internet ruined that 😬). The pride movement is deeply intertwined with queer people, and we wouldn't have the rights or acceptance we have today without it, so putting down the community (which is queer in its entirety) does hurt queer people. Homophobes like to put out propaganda about how the queer community and its members are gooming kids and abusing them (first it was the gays, now it's the trans people), all so they can get their anti-queer legislation passed. I hate to see it when people who otherwise support queer people throw that at the community as a whole. Btw, I'm not like trying to come as rude or unkind or anything. It's hard to convey tone across text 😅.
@@EdgeLie I dont know any parents who show rated 18 plus to children and if they do the parents usually cover their children's eyes during explicit scenes. And in the Disney example they just race/gender swap characters and show them with no flaws and do it all the time lol.

That Matt Walsh speech near the beginning might have honestly been the worst thing I’ve ever listened to in this modern day. Its this viscerally irrational hatred masked behind this polished, ‘balanced’ appearance. It’s terrifying.
I don't even think it's masked behind anything. It made me recoil in horror. A visceral fantasy of torturing people he deems lesser. It's gloves off fascism.
I’ve become almost desensitized to the constant hate going on in our world, but hearing what he said actually made my chest heavy. It just doesn’t make any sense to me and it never will, as to why people try so hard to demonize and essentially try to eradicate people just living 😢
he's talking about grown men that want to give lap dances to children, not the gay community as a whole...you realize this right? the fact that that distinction is not made here is kinda why theres a divide growing. theres nothing irrational about hating that, and there are already laws I presume you support against doing that. is your position truly, that any society that opposes minors to be involved in simulated public sex acts is fascist? what i see happening is called motte and bailey....where extremists in the community claim the right to do some pretty out-there things(thats the bailey...then when they are pushed back on, the wider community says "we just want to live" (which is the motte and makes attackers look extreme).... theres two different things happening there...if you want peace, you need to police your own extremists, or else someone like matt walsh will show up and denounce them, and you for covering for them... gay rights =/= men in dresses rubbing on 6th graders. if you tie that together, with the normal progress that LGBT movements have made in record time... you'll lose everything you've worked for, and you'll deserve it.
@@apokatastasian2831 he’s generalizing drag queens and drag in its entirety though; pedophilia and being queer is not connected, matt is being prejudicial and is fear mongering.
@@apokatastasian2831 Drag queens don't do that though. It's generally already a shitty thing to do to sexualize someone's identity, but to then go a step further and conflate that sexualized perversion of someone else's identity with pedophilia, in order to gather an excuse to oppress them. You do realize this trick goes back decades, right? Homophobes in the 70s said all gay people are pedophiles and accused them of sexually harassing their children at school by... Being allowed to teach normal subjects there at all. Also the fact you're defending someone who openly states themselves as a "theocratic fascist" makes me think you should really re-evaluate why you're saying what you're saying.
As a guy completely on factory settings, so to speak, I feel so bad for trans people and people with gender dysphoria being marginalized like this. I'm so sorry that this is how you are treated by some just for wanting to live your best lives. What a world we live in.

This is what happens when both political parties in bipartisan system agree on how to govern (for the rich and against common people). They turn towards polarizing issues, like how to raise our children, to turn us against one another while they profit.

I never saw any LGBT content on TV and I was little kid in the 90s, and I knew I am a lesbian from I was 4 or 5 years old! I also discovered that I am also non-binary as I grew up. I was never "confused" about who I am! Children are human beings, not stupid amoebae!

Personally I believe guns not be the issue I believe humans to be. I mean if you leave a gun on the counter it's not like the gun is going to shoot by itself. It needs someone to shoot. Like tbh I think the issue is more with a person than the actual object. It's kind of like a hand. On one hand the hand can be used to feed the homeless on the other hand it can be used to strike some one. I mean if we restrict gun access will that really be the end of the problems? People will find another way to hurt people no matter what you restrict access to. I believe we need better health care. But that's just me I guess.
this is just, enraging. i am from Colombia, a country in Latin America, and i just stumbled upon this after getting recommended a whole channel with videos about a "loving mother who saved her daughter from transgenderism". i just, i can't believe this is happening and no major media in my country is talking about it. i would love to help, but i don't know how, being outside United States and all, so i'd appreciate if anyone could tell me what i can do. as the person talking about Roe vs Wade, let's turn our rage into action.
@genosse-andor & @jsblackchalk1551 how did BOTH of you miss the point of their comment?! The problem isn't that the "loving mother's" kid wanted to be true to themselves (trying to coming out as trans in this case). The problem is that that "mother" felt validated in forcing her kid to be something they're not.
We're from the same country. Honestly, even if this is a very awful thing happening in the US, I'd rather not have any major news outlets talk about this, since all of them are very, veeery conservative and most probably will try to twist the info and make it anti-lgbt propaganda. You know RCN and Caracol are both well known for twisting their news to make their prefferred political party look good. They'll probably make a small note about the anti-lgbt rhetoric in the US and then move on to ask a homophobic republican senate about their opinion.

Number 1 cause of death of children in the US is firearms. Not cancer, not car accidents - firearms.

One of the things about this that gets my goat that isn't really talked about is how all this nonsense about LBGTQ+ being groomers means that *actual* groomers are getting looked at less. It's gonna become *really* difficult within the next few years to take *any* such accusation seriously because of how much it's being overused and misused. Basically what I'm saying is: I wouldn't be surprised at all if that's an intended side effect of this new wave of propoganda. Like a magician playing sleight of hand to make us all look in the wrong direction. Still... I'm pretty sure that the upcoming generations are going to be way more accepting of LBGTQ+ people, despite this attempt to demonise them. My main concern is the damage that will be done in the short term.
That and it's scary that places like Texas and Florida are passing more laws to protect adults treating their children like property and churches in communities that may systematically abuse people. Statistics show us again and again that the main culprits behind child grooming and r*pe are from paternal family members (fathers, uncles, brothers, male cousins, etc) and people in positions of power that have access to children (priests, politicians, police officers, teachers, etc). And with these laws coming in that demonize LGBTQ+ people while protecting the main demographics responsible for these crimes can and will ultimately punish almost every innocent party while allowing the abusive parties to maintain power over others and furthermore to allow access to those groups they want to abuse.
I've seen a good number of people point out that sadly this is probably part of the real goal. Get the average citizens at each others throats so that the real abusers go unchecked.
The reality is that the term "groomer" was first proliferated by left wing Twitter as a false accusation against relationships with any perceived power imbalances, even 19 year old CallMeCarson dating a 17 year old as a prime example. Then the right adopted that false accusation term, and started using it to bring back the classic homophic "gay people will harm your kids!" claim but with modern language. The term was already rendered meaningless the moment the internet popularized it. Left wing twitter is to blame for starting the improper use of the term, and the right is to blame for making the situation worse. It is best for the term to die altogether. If an accusation is real, call the police and press charges, otherwise the term should not be taken seriously when used online.
"I don't want to reach a compromise with you. I don't want to be polite to you. I don't want to share a planet with you. That's how much I despise what you stand for." The feeling is mutual, Matt.
@@sorentothesky Was about to comment that too. For a man who talks about LGBTQIA+ people grooming children, he seems pretty okay with grooming 16-year-old girls to marry them off.
I just thought I'd mention the beard guy who is so keen on protecting the kids is infamously the guy who said 17 year old girls are the most fertile and tried to excuse child marriage
@Jeremiah McBrearty thats the point.. its worse because he doesnt see teen pregnancy as a problem, he sees not married teen pregnancy as a problem. Hes okay with it as long as theyre married which is disgusting
The interview with Sasha Colby where she says, "Because I'm a trans woman" and the interviewer immediately says, "It's because you're a WOMAN," :') more journalists like this please, Sasha is an amazing woman!
Being trans should not be excluded. Not because of trans pride or anything but when it comes to good health, trans information is important. The trans body is altered and because of it requires special treatment in good health, more than healthy born woman.
I've been a conservative all my life and the absolute hate coming from the conservative party has me to the point where I will be either voting Blue or 3rd party. I want to apologize to the LGBTQ community for any part I've played in bringing such hateful people into power. I'm honestly ashamed of myself almost as much as I'm ashamed of the party that I thought stood for the personal liberties and the 2nd amendment rights of ALL, and not just for themselves. I was wrong, these people genuinely believe that only their constitutional rights are valid and have no problem stripping them from others for the sake of their cringe culture war.
They've been this way for decades just not so openly. I am glad you recognize it though. If the 2nd amendment is important to you no Democrat is going to ban all guns. That's yet another issue conservatives use to manipulate people into voting for them. I'm not going to tell you who to vote for, but I would consider voting blue until we defeat these hateful weirdos and our country is out of danger from them. Also, your apology is welcome but not necessary. Just glad some are waking up to how insane, dangerous, and hateful this is.
Unfortunate you resort to lying about your ideas and ability to discern reality from fiction but I suppose if you are pressured from all sides the weak fall first. “In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot.” -Mark Twain I am sure you'll return, although I won't be holding my breath. Good luck to you not going insane in the meantime.
Thank you so much for your honesty in this, I've been feeling down lately about how bigotry seems to be gaining traction. I fear that every hate crime I've heard of could happen to someone I know and for everyone still having to live in places where they live endangered everyday - I fear for all these brilliant young queer people I know personally and when I think about all this fearmongering and lying that endangers them, I just... struggle to understand how anyone can want this. Struggle to understand how anyone can support the people who want to hurt them so badly. Whenever I think about people who would willingly excuse this behavior and continue supporting those people, I wonder if it's possible for someone to snap out of it? I'm happy you posted this. I know it must've taken a lot of courage and introspection to stop standing by the side you'd been loyal to for the sake of other people's well-being. I hope you're doing well for yourself and are continuing to choose peace and courage, not just politically but in your daily life - that there will be plenty of opportunities for you to feel like you can truly stand for other people's rights now. I know shame doesn't feel good, but it's a healthy response. I don't think you'll have to feel that way for long. I hope more people who are still willing to vote these dangerous people into power start realizing it's not worth it TLDR: I've been terrified for my community lately, but even thought I can't speak everyone - Apology accepted. I really needed to hear this today. I want to believe people can change.
Thank you so much for being open and intelligent enough to grow and be better. They seems to be too difficult for many right wingers. You are a good person for rising above that.
Two party systems are dangerous in general. Absolutely support voting third party. Even blue is still considered right-wing. I don't know about American third parties, but imo the only Canadian one that actually supports people's rights and them coming together is NDP. Wishing peace to wherever you're living soon.
Seeing this rise in politics genuinely terrifies the hell out of me. I can’t believe that people see me and people like me as monsters and something they need to erase. I’ve always been proud of my identity and now I have to worry about who I tell and my safety. My existence is seen as a dangerous “ideology.” Im so tired. Thank you for breaking this whole situation down so well! Trans people will always exist, we’ll always be here no matter how hard these people try to push down.

I sometimes get discouraged.... I feel more unsafe being myself now, than when I was growing up (punished for who I loved and how I dressed). Then.. I get hope thinking about the past. The bigots have never prevailed over any marginalized group. Be it black, jewish, romani, queer, whatever. Even though it's hard right now, I do feel some comfort in knowing that the bigots will always be on the wrong side of history. We may be few, but we are strong (like an ox lol)
You're so right, i don't comment often but you're right. You are on the right side of history, we all are, just keep fighting the good fight but progress is a pendulum, just think of all the progress LGBT rights has come to, yes it wasn't perfect but at least it became less awkward to be gay and tv shows had queer characters people could relate to but it always felt niche, like tokenisation almost but it was ok. the pendulum has swung the other way now, with more pushback than ever in the modern era, but believe me sir that once the pendulums swings back, life will be great again, just hold on in there and stay safe, take care 🖤. This comment makes 0 sense but you know what I mean
I’m so sorry:( I’m bisexual but I’m not that vocal about it and I’d say girls get away with it a lot easier. Sometimes I forget how hard it is for others in the community. I hope there is a day where we don’t have to deal with this bull crap.
i did. in-fact notice a rise in misogyny, homophobia and racism on insta and youtube, and constantly got into arguments with them thinking i can educate them but i really be optimistic about these people. it has been so draining to argue but i always give in and argue with them because i want to defend my people. and i 100% agree we are gonna be at the right side of history, no matter what number we might be in but i am happy knowing we fought for our rights just like our people from the past and have a better chance for the next generation to express themselves.
@@kandy1643 same i think i am bisexual , i am not 100% sure i find my feelings confusing since idk i like both men and women but at the same time it’s weird idk how to explain it i just don’t vocalize it that much, however i have started to sorta saying that i am bi but i am not 100% sure and i don’t care of what people think of me as long as me and my partner if i ever have one is happy together :)
I'm 14 years old and a lesbian. I found out I was gay when I was 12. Guess what else was happening when I was 12? Lockdown. I had absolutely no no contact with older queer people, I just watched a Marvel movie and thought Scarlett Johansen was hot. Should we cancel Marvel for indoctrination? Or, matter of fact cancel being hot because that is what made me gay. Recently, my sister and I went to some pride events around my community. My sister is straight. Guess what? After those events, she was still straight!!!!11!!1 Isn't that crazy! It's almost like being gay is controlled by hormones in your brain, and not being around drag queens! Crazy, right?
Man if only every bigot could listen to you, they would stop using the same children indoctrination argument… for about 2 days tho, they love using the same terrible arguments, even though they’ve been proven wrong long ago.
I am so very afraid of the upcoming years. I thought my husband and I might finally be able to settle down and start our family. But it looks like we're going to have to move again. Our state is even passing laws that mean we wouldn't be allowed to adopt if one of the people reviewing is as candidates decided their religious view meant gay people shouldn't have children. All I want is to live a quiet life with my soul mate and raise children who might have better odds than we did at stability and happiness, but even that seems like an impossibility now...
@@LA5TL0VER unfortunately it's waaaaay to cold in both those places for me. I really can't live anywhere that gets more than a month of lower than 0°C.... Otherwise I'd definitely move somewhere like that.
@@Radhaun In fairness, Iceland's climate is regulated by the Gulf Stream, giving it a subpolar oceanic climate, and so winter temperatures for its latitude are 'mild' with a maximum low of -3C, an average of 2C, and a max of 4C. Summer however is much colder than in Sweden (because Swedens climate is continental, like in the US, with wide gaps between temperatures. So Sweden in winter is where you're looking at -20C, but in the summer, rather warm). That is in comparison to where it never really gets above 15C ever in Iceland. If that's still too cold for you, consider the Netherlands or Germany which both have *almost* the same tolerance of LGBTQ+ as Scandinavian countries but without the weather. Avoid Switzerland, the UK, Italy, and a lot of Eastern Europe.
Just remember everyone, the older members of our community had to fight hard to gain rights for us, but it is too easy for us to lose them again. Whether you're left wing or right wing, introducing anti-LGBTQ+ laws goes against democracy and basic human rights. Stay strong members of the Pride Community!
Yes everyone deserves to be equal, but a law that doesn't allow teachers to talk about sex and sexual orientation to kids up to 3rd grade is not a violation of any human right.
@@evilgoose6768 is it censorship not to tell very young kids delicate matters? Do you think it is wrong that a parent cares about when to talk about this with their child and being the one who talks to their child about such things?

I'm a white, heterosexual, man that lives in the USA. I am opposed to bigotry, tribalism, discrimination, oppression and persecution. Conservative groups in this country engage in campaigns of dog whistling, fear mongering and spreading misinformation which culminates into hate and violence.

@systic gmd This narrative you push about trans people is statistically irrelevant and does not represent a trend in society. The detransition rate of gender affirming care is 2%, and the bulk of detransitions are caused by peer pressure from family and financial circumstances not allowing them to pursue further treatment. You have fallen for an image that is statistically insignificant and fueled mainly by grifters.
@systic gmd 5% of the US says their gender is different than what they were assigned at birth. That's about 16 million people. On average in the US and Canada, 1% express regrets about it, and over 80% of THEM regret it because of the discrimination they face for transitioning. That's about 160,000 people. 0.4% or 64,000 detransition because they weren't happy with the actual results. Yes, people do detransition, but they are an incredibly small minority and it would be stupid to dehumanize and attempt to destroy an entire population over that tiny percentage. The fact is if people aren't happy, detransitioning is a very real, very simple process. Edit: A very small minority of an already small minority. No child is getting surgeries or irreversible damage done to them. Drag queens aren't molesting them en masse in libraries. The argument for why kids shouldn't see these things is pretty much the same reason nutter butters got worked up over the Little Mermaid not being a white woman. Times change, and if you're stuck in the past you can't honestly expect the entire world to sit around with you.
Hello, trans youth here. starting off with debunking some idiots in the comments. I figured out I was trans all by myself. I am christian, and struggle with going to church because of queerphobia. My mental health has improved since finding people that accept and love me. Now hear this from a trans CHILD I am scared to visit my mema because she lives in tx. I am scared that I might get taken away from my parents, I am scared I'll get harassed or attacked for being trans. I'm scared in my own state, where someone at my school recently threatened a gay guy in my grade. We had to go on lockdown. HE STILL GOES TO MY SCHOOL. These laws that are meant to "protect me" are what could end up with me not being alive. I have to do research on what states I can go to safely. This is America. Your children are terrified. Protect trans kids.
Seeing people getting so upset over drag readings is mind boggling to me. A fully clothed adult is reading an age appropriate book, in a public place, to a child supervised by a parent or trusted adult. There is actually no reason to get angry over that.
a draggie is a sexual deviant, their actions are inherently aimed at sex if they are wearing the wrong sex's clothing moreso there is literally no reason to do this, why not mailman story hour? baker story hour? why this one specifically? oh right, to groom
@@007kingifrit 1. wearing the "wrong sex's clothing" has no inherent sexual intent. sex has no innate, biological correlation to clothing style, and going against the (completely arbitrary and socially constructed) grain in an exaggerated way doesn't translate to being a sexual deviant in the first place. exaggerated masculinity by a man isn't inherently sexual; exaggerated femininity by a woman isn't inherently sexual; why would crossing the barrier be? 2. because mailmen and bakers are widely accepted in society? they don't need a "mailman story hour" to educate others because nobody is actively campaigning against the mailman's rights to self expression. tldr you seem to be either misled, ignorant or misunderstanding the terms you used and i implore you to actually do your own research
@@manwhoismissingtwotoenails4811 society deems certain outfits for men or women, to defy this implies a destructive nature interested in harming the social fabric. that means you want to do harm
@@007kingifrit "wanting to do harm" is not the same thing as tearing down a restrictive system. you sound like you think society is already perfect. just because something is out of the norm doesn't mean it's harmful; it's *far* more harmful to keep people locked in that box in the first place. so what if someone wants to wear different clothes? maybe if defying the arbitrary assignment of clothing is interested in "harming the social fabric" the social fabric needs to be changed.
Homosexuality is literally a sin in the Bible. If anything Matt Walsh would be seen as a good person in gods eyes since he’s fighting against what is seen as sin. Even if he isn’t, he can still repent and be seen as a good person again, so in the end it doesn’t matter if you do some of the worst shit in the world. As long as you don’t insult the lord and savior you can get away with any crime and still go to heaven. GREAT RELIGION AM I RIGHT?!
I wanted to celebrate pride month, but it looks like it’s not going to be possible for a while. I’m a trans man and a demi-pansexual/panromantic person. I don’t ever want to hurt kids. Hell, if anything, I want to do everything in my power to protect kids from these bigots and poisoning their young minds with their hatred and contempt for anyone different from their own in any way, shape, or form.
@@Creepex And why is that? I haven’t harmed any children and I never plan on it. I just want to be myself and not fear for my life or the lives of my loved ones due to other people hating us to the point of wanting to, and in many cases have successfully, do us harm. I hope you have a good day.
People don't realise how much their hate adversely affects others also. I'm intersex, and I've had more and more hateful comments from people who are wrongly identifying me as trans when I am not. The just disgusting things people say. It's disheartening. And these laws that may restrict gender surgery will affect people like me also if we ever decided for it later in life. Sometimes for someone like me hormone replacement or suppliments, or puberty blockers, or surgery is needed when complications arise from how we were born. Either as a teen or adult. These restrictions would negatively affect everyone who needs it for a variety of reasons. And not to mention intersex people are being unethically operated on at birth... and that still happens today in secret. Which barely gets any traction to be completely banned, only a few hospitals have denounced it from what I've seen. It's a sad world. ( sorry for any poor English.)
I am sorry for what you're going through - I know that's rich for some random idiot on the internet, but I want you to know I completely agree with what you are saying. I've heard this panic is also effecting androgynous girls and women. Until the day I die I will making videos mentioning the existence of and fighting for the rights of intersex people. But the sad thing is, I kinda don't know how to effectively fight for the rights of intersex people. My only attempt at praxis is to educate but most importantly provide and support and dual power teachers who'd educate youths who'd grow up into the doctors and professionals and pundit and office workers err my point is by making the next generation at the least aware and are wiling to change themselves and society, we recover the next generation of people. However, winning the culture war is a part of this, and so, from my experience, educating youths and supporting those who do ultimately would be the path to win it. I would love to hear what you think or something. My apologies if I came off rude or something.
Thank you- there should always 100% be solidarity between trans people and intersex people. Our issues may be different, but we often get hit with the same hate. I always try to remind people that intersex people exist too, and tell them about the hidden issue of those unconsentual surgeries at birth when people try to argue that there are only two genders and think that gender and sex are directly the same thing- if more people knew about intersex people it would honestly help both of our struggles. We're all stronger together.
Intersex people in general and REAL studies on intersex birth rates just throw a wrench in all their statements so they consistently try to make it seem like it's a 1 in a million chance and totally negligible.
Cis gender, heterosexual male here. Just wanted to say that if you think trans people don't exist or that they are groomers or that trans kids don't know who they are or that gender affirming care is bad, then know that every major professional organization in all the relevant fields disagrees with you. Solidarity with LGBTQIA+ people!
Associating anyone, particularly already marginalised minorities with "grooming" is effectively incitement to violence and law enforcers should recognise it as such.
@@dfmrcv862 That doesn't follow. Suffice it to say however, that a marginalised group is going to be less familiar to the public, people will be less likely to know a member of that group personally, and therefore untrue stories about that group will be more likely to be believed, with less chance of being disproved by personal experience. The marginalised group will have less or no access to media platforms and will be less able to fight back or set the record straight than a larger more familiar group. Marginalised groups are therefore more vulnerable and more likely to suffer much more dire consequences from being represented as a threat.
@@dfmrcv862 By definition homosexuals and transgenders are marginalized; it's not up to opinion because it is a fact. Just because you believe the group in question is degenerate does not override this.
@@ugheieiemmmfmfmff ...where did I say they were not marginalized groups? Actually, no, that's a good question to ask. What do we define as "marginalized" and at what point does a marginalized group stop being "marginalized"?

Lol he doesn't even wish anything bad to y'all he just says to keep it away from kids. One day you'll have to realize criticism is not people out to get you. Most of the time people aren't even mad at what ADULTS DO. They're mad at you forcing it to us kids. Y'alls minds are blocked off. You see any form of criticism as an attack against you. You live in a constant state of fear and paranoia. When no one has barely done anything to you. This will eventually lead into your own downfall. And it wont be homophobes who will be at fault it will be your own. You are deliberately destroying yourselves and you do not see it because you believe everyone to be a bully.

The hormone blockers that they have the option of receiving are completely reversible and were developed to help cis kids that went through puberty way too fast. Circumcision came about for a few reasons, primarily religious practices, but it became more widespread in the U.S. because people believed that it would prevent masturbation.

In terms of the grooming accusations, one piece I think is most interesting is that the rhetoric you see today is borrowed. I say this because in 1977 there was a coalition formed in Miami, Florida called the Save Our Children coalition that used the same rhetoric that is today against trans people existing which was then used against gay people simply wanting buy homes, and from their pamphlet, in their reference to gay people, I quote the first text seen on the front fold/side 1: "Save our children from homosexuality." Then on you can find places on side 2 that says "it endangers our children," among other familiar phrases today like "it threatens your home," and "it attacks free enterprise." The pamphlet includes so many accusations but it is purely rhetoric and anecdote-based, in that it includes no case studies, no graphs, no numbers, no sources cited whether scholarly or professional, and other than the aforementioned anecdotal references it relies solely on the projection of religious beliefs against the group of people at hand.
Yes. A lot of pro-Segregationists used the same rhetoric to deny an education to colored folks as well. That they would somehow use it to "prey-on" white women and kids.
@@guihuppe Accept now there is grooming and a lot more of it. Not saying the pamphlet was right, i'm just saying that is does not prove today's allegations wrong.
Being trans isn’t a choice??? “Transgenderism” is a offensive term used to dehumanize the identity down to a ideology or an illness. It is NEITHER. It is a identity and a very real one in fact.
Lol, yeah living in a state that has good living comparable to most of the us, which is the most pampered country for you people is so scary!

Why does the government care so much about these things?! When their actions and new laws are causing so much harm? Do they genuinely think they're doing the right thing?
1) Culture wars distract the masses from Government efforts to transfer even more wealth and power to the elites while everyone else gets screwed. This is the biggest reason why both parties in America engage in culture war battles (Democrats and Republicans treat the rich and powerful fairly similarly when you look closely, despite telling the people different things) 2) Democrats did many of the same things to the unvaccinated and other populations who did not fit into their expected fear of and approach to dealing with COVID-19. Lots of what we are seeing towards LGBTQ people is likely driven by a desire to retaliate against the Democrats for their infringements of the rights of the People, while more is likely the result of such restrictions on people's personal medical decisions now being within the Overton window of American politics. 3) With all the religious nutjobs who think they are literally doing the work of God by passing these laws, yes, plenty of them think they're doing the right thing.
My perspective is that the whole situation is emotional, and not logical. This means that there is no definite proof of anything really, and the answer will never be logical. Any answer, as long as it isn't universally considered (among ALL sides of the political spectrum) to be complete horseshit, will be both correct and wrong at the same time. Schrödinger's penis; It either exists, or it doesn't.
Meanwhile child-marrige is legal in most states (but child divorce is not, go figure), parents can post pics of their kids on the internet wiliy nily for all the pedophiles to see, if you are looking for the child predators there are really much more straight forward ways to go about it
I love how they act like grooming is something exclusive to lgtbq+ people and would "protect" their children from them, when a straight person is just as capable of doing the same thing but they don't care about that. This isn't about protecting children, it's about spreading hate.
Yeah im pretty sure It doesnt make it better if teachers started passing around the cis-gender version of "how to suck dick 101", instead of the gay version. Your uneducated and ignorant if you think there isn't an actual agenda, because we literally are taught this agenda in highschool psychology. Its not LGBT people, but a group of ideologues who think gender and biology are meaningless in cognition
What I don’t understand is that man why the fuck would we choose this life? It sucks. It’s hard. Why would we choose that hate? We wouldn’t. We just wanna be us. :/
You know, about the matt walsh stuff, you can find some deleted articles of his that suggest he may not be the most safe person to be around kids himself.
It's incredibly ironic how the group that's all about "protecting the kids" will run to the nearest cave and cover their ears as soon as you tell them the people they're putting in power are blatant pedophiles themselves.
Come on now, I'm totally sure the guy who said women are most fertile at 17-24 would never do anything of the sort. Just look at him, he's just a lil' guy dabbling with a lil' misogyny and 'tough love', he wouldn't hurt a fly.
the idea that like letting kids be exposed to gay content means that they'll turn out gay is so fundamentally stupid. i'm bi and trans. i was exposed to only straight content my entire childhood. and yet here i am! two of my mom's best friends are a lesbian couple - and yet she's straight. it's not contagious. the "grooming" allegation comes down to the idea that men wearing makeup, etc, is inherently sexual. which like... why? in what way? you can say 'kids shouldn't be in a strip club', and sure, fair enough! i think there are certainly some sexual situations kids shouldn't be in; i don't think they should be allowed at, say, hooters, either! but have you seen any of the queens actually doing those story hours? it's the same level of makeup and clothing that a pantomime character or a clown would be wearing. and if you think clowns are inherently sexual at that point i feel like thats something youve gotta work out with yourself but the thing is, people see gay and trans identities as inherently sexual in a way they don't see straight or cis identities, even though on a fundamental level that makes no sense. i can't help but wonder how long it's going to be until the three-article laws from the 40s-60s make a return. (or even from before - like the story of the what we would probably call trans guy from 1913-ish was jailed for three years on the grounds that “No girl would dress in men’s clothing unless she is twisted in her moral viewpoint,". even though its from the beginning of the 20th century, doesn't that just feel like something matt walsh could say? i don't know, man. i've got it pretty easy, because i'm stealth - no one who looks at me thinks i'm anything but a cis guy. but it's hard not to worry. i'm definitely going to make sure my passport/license gender gets changed before i go anywhere near, say, texas or florida.
@@technoloverish For sure, as a straight person I've never once felt tempted to be gay. seeing gay relationships in the media did not make me question anything. these homophobes are clearly projecting their own closeted attraction to the same sex.
@@technoloverish No. Stop with this nonsense. It may not be intentional on your part, but this takes accountability away from straight people more than you can imagine. There are millions of straight people who believe this, and who spread these sorts of ideas. Stop pinning it on closeted gay people, when this has been an issue that gay people have had to deal with at the hands of straight people for generations.
@@exposureeee Oh, for sure, there a plenty of genuinely straight people who have been oppressing gay people. It's just that when their homophobia comes along with s*xualizing things like pride flags, it's rather strange and not very normal for a straight person to to views those things that way. To be fair, a gay person probably isn't going to s*xualize such things either. Nonetheless, a closeted gay person or bi person who is ashamed of their s*xuality could potentially view such things as s*xualizing. Basically, the point is that plenty of straight people are homophobic and are responsible for oppressing gay people, though a certain subgroup of homophobic people who make these wild claims about things like pride flags being s*xual may be people who themselves are insecure about their own identity and projecting that insecurity
I'm in Canada, and while generally Canada is seen as more progressive, it's scary how much of the USA ideas and division has extended up here. There are so many things here that I never would have thought I'd see. I'm scared to say too much, I'm scared to be myself, and I never know who is safe to discuss things with, even in a fairly "liberal" area.
Identifying acceptance, tolerance and simple human decency as cultism attached to whatever identity is being targeted, draws attention away from the genuine religious cults attempting to use trans people as a wedge to help them take back control of human rights on a broader front. Drawing attention away from the religious motivation behind the anti trans war of persecution is even more important given how religion has lost its reputation in the chosen battlegrounds of women's rights and child safeguarding. In fact, these are issues that have prompted many people to reject the organised part of religion.
Stop lying. Your movement has not been about tolerance or acceptance for a long time. It is about the next sexual revolution, even if it means sacrificing the health and lives of children. Get out of your worldview bubble. Watch Matt Walsh's lectures, read the critiques of your environment, learn about the history of gender theory and its founders. It only takes a little effort to significantly change the attitude towards your environment. The more we reliably learn about LGBT communities, the more negative attitudes we take towards them.
Yes and satanism and Marxism are certainly a perfect alternative for many of these people… We can gladly criticize the church for their faults but, do not pretend that much of homosexual community do not seek radical circles that exhibit the same level of irony as any religious dominion! I assure you that Christianity is quite fair, but your beliefs stem from growing radicalism, and the church is an obvious superpower that stands in your way. Point being, do not act as if you are any more noble in this crusade of yours.
LGBT IS a religion. Tell me how is the belief, that a person is "born in the wrong body," not a quasi-religious one? Nobody says that people with schizophrenia or autism are born in the wrong body.
@@artemkatelnytskyi “born in the wrong body” isn’t actually a great way to explain what it means to be transgender. It’s something the media used, as it was easy to visualise. Because of the use in media, it automatically became a common saying in everyday language. A better way to describe it would be: wanting people to perceive you as another gender then your biological sex.
@@artemkatelnytskyi When some trans people say that they were born in the wrong body, that is an experiential statement, not a religious statement. They are trying to find words to express what it feels like to be them.
the fear campaign is the primary goal. the laws, believe it or not, are secondary to installing this broad and engrained fear in everyone. living* as yourself in sheer defiance is an extremely revolutionary act and you should hold your head high in the process.

oh my god. I always knew Matt Walsh was bad but always avoided his stuff, that small section at the start of him speaking made my jaw drop with each sentence he was spewing, so effortlessly, so naturally, I could feel my skin crawl. Im not even trans but being near him would make me be shaken to my very core in fear that he would do something to me. This is so scary. All strength to to all transg people out there.
Mart walsh: I literally want you off the same planet as me and think you shouldn't exist. This guy: "But wHat wAS the CONtext thou.... 🤪" Mate, his other content provides the context. Dude literally equates drag queens and trans people with groomers, literally states that drag queens by their meer existence are a danger to children, literally lies about gender affirming care to bolster his agenda. But nah you're here saying "But that CONtext thou 🤓" Bloody hell.
@@herobrine024 Even with this context I still would be afraid of being near him regardless, because this is hate speech by the end of the day. Hate speech shouldn't be normalized under any circumstance. It only works as a systemic oppression tactic, any group that is considered a minority suffers from this. Misogynists take bad things that are done by feminists not to talk about the problem at hand but to find justification their misogynistic beliefs, racists pick up bad things people that aren't white did to justify racism, homophobes and transphobes do the exact same thing, its only history repeating itself, and the way Walsh voices it, sounds like its getting to the level of necropolitics too. He could have talked about his frustration, talked about solutions, in so so many other ways, but the fact that he chose hate speech is already a red flag by itself , because this is what his audience wants to see, and probably because he has hate inside him too, and wants to spread some fear. Because thats the only thing hate speech works for, I have suffered from the effects of hate speech, I know the feeling, it crawls in the back of your mind that someday you will be so hated for being compared to something awful that you had nothing to do with, that anyone will feel they have the right to do anything to you, and nobody will be there to protect you.
It is not just lgbt+ Anti, many places in the world have taken a conservative turn during this decade. We have, Iran and Afghanistan, Ouganda, and of course, the overturning of Roe v Wade.
I found myself nodding at that video of Watt Malsh saying "I don't want to share a planet with you," because I agree. I don't want to be around disgusting monsters like him who stoke fear and demonize groups of people for political gain. If he doesn't want to be on this planet, well, that's his problem and he should find a solution that does not involve harming anyone else.
This is so frustrating. Everyday I am reminded of just how ignorant the world is, how close-minded humans can be. Why can't we just let people be who they want to be? Why do people care so much about the identity of other people? I am a comfortable, cisgender, heterosexual male. I care about queer issues not because I am queer myself, but because I find it absolutely disgusting that people can be subjected to so much anger, hate, violence, just because they want to choose who they want to be.
Probably companies paying media to divert attention to non-issues, so they can keep profiting off a corrupt system. Easy to get people upset about minorities if you feed them the right propaganda. That's just my conspiracy theory though.
This isn’t like anything that we had to go through in the late 90’s and 2000’s. That was hard, this is crazy! We need to stick together! ALL of us 🏳️🌈 🆘🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️
This is why I started a GSA (Gay Straight Alliance) in my middle school and junior high school here in NYS. 💪💪💪🏳️🌈 All students have a right to an after school GSA, according to the 1984 Equal Access Act. It’s a federal law.
This is what the 80s were like when open violent gay-bashing was seen by law enforcement and the majority of average people not as a one sided hate crime but a two sided problem between homophobes and people inciting violence by openly presenting as queer in public. Police often wouldn’t make arrests or arrest the queer victims as well because “the gays started it by provoking the skinheads to fight by shoving perversions in everyone’s face” by not pretending to be straight while walking down a sidewalk. And by 80s I mean that’s when things started to change because it was far worse each preceding decade.
I feel so bad for people in other states, it must be absolutely terrifying. My state just passed laws for legal protections for sexual orientation, gender identity and expression in this midst of this chaos and it made me so happy. It really does feel like there's unsafe and safe states now.
It's one of the most terrifying things the world has EVER known. Imagine going back to only just 5 years ago before this big push gender identity push. Oh the blood curling screams!! When I was going up and playing with other kids I can't recall anyone ever waiting to see a drag queen. You have to teach kids to care about stuff like this otherwise they just want to play fun games and have treats.
Violent extremists see no borders. So while there may be legal protections in some states, that won't stop shooters and terrorists. 'Safe' is not really something that exists when the conservatives are being whipped into a frenzy, wrongly convinced that children are being harmed by drag queens and trans people. Some places are worse than others but I don't want people to be complacent because 'it would never happen here'. Stay safe and vigilant.
I am so tired of all of the attacks against our community. I am so tired of having to hide my true self for my own safety. I am so tired of watching our rights slowly get stripped away after the progress that has been made. I am so tired of watching family members be radicalized by the media. I am so, so tired of the people I love voting against my value and existence as a human being. What is so hard about basic human decency? Why do so many futures have to be out at risk because of fearmongering? Why can’t we coexist?
Aah, don't blame yourself child for the world inflicted with chaos and destruction. But, trust me over the next few years of every generation will become far worst than here now.
How come gay couples holding hands is "indoctrination," and "inappropriate," but when straight couples hint at very sexual things in movies and shows in like 2nd grade, nobody says a word. Why is trans care on minors child abuse, when all it's doing is making the child happier and is extremely rarely (+ After a long time of being trans, so at that point, you're probably going to not detransition, and be trans for life), if at all negatively or permanently affecting them in any way? And one last question, why do these right wing conspiracists make up so many lies about the LGBTQ+ community, in an attempt to silence, harm, and neglect the community? Really, I'd like to know the thought process of those morons.
Also, what lies are speaking about and think of the human aspect from the 'left side' if, as you put it that right side is making up lies, now think hard of all the guaranteed lies the left is feeding you. Stop and think for yourself. Also, transitioning is a life long medical bill in one form or another. It is big business.
@@CharlieKell Unfortunately, and the upcoming government (if they get a majority at the general election) isn't the same usual "progressive" party it used to be.

Hopefully something turns around during pride month - Not keeping my hopes up with this one seeing as where other laws are heading currently.
You do realize that most of the world have laws against lgbt people? western countries tend to be very liberal. But try going to Africa or the middle east.

Thank you so much for making this! it was a heartbreaking watch, but so informative! Thank you. I'm from Denmark and part of the LGBTQ+ community, and I can say that the rise of anti-LGBTQ+ politics in America rubs off. Drag story hour in Copenhagen has had a lot of criticism and very uncomfortable protests. This is a scary time, but we are strong, we have to be! Happy pride month. I'm so proud to be part of this community.
I am trans myself, in America. And lately, it has been hard for me to act like a human when you are not being treated as one. I have a growing anger and hatred towards humanity lately. Yes I am venting.
As a trans person in Scotland, while I admit I am in a more fortunate place as the people in the devolved power of the Scottish Parliament do want to help the LGBTQ+ community for once, they are sadly at the whim of an increasingly prejudiced UK Government, which ended up being the reason a revolutionary reform to the Gender Recognition Act (which would have made the lives of trans people in Scotland easier) being blocked. It’s sad that many people in power seem to think attacking a small community of people who just want to exist in peace is the biggest problem in our society.
I’m a queer person from Denmark too, and I agree, I’m beginning to see people being more intolerant towards the lgbtq community, and it’s scary, I usually don’t tell people about my love life because I’m scared they will say something negative. Obviously it’s not as bad in Denmark as it is in America, but a lot of people here agree with the right-winged Americans

What is really confusing is the fact that people assume gender affirming care = immediate reassignment surgery/ drugs ESP for children I live in the goddamn Cali, as insanely blue as you can get. I am a trans minor, I know how it works & what it's like. There is a 6month to year requirement for therapy first off before you can rlly be considered as someone who needs to just embrace it (I've been in therapy for over 3 years; gender comes up fairly often & I'd been wrestling with it before I even entered the horrific internet). I am also a foster kid, meaning I obv have other issues which they have you try & weigh out in therapy. Onceit is determined to be an innate permanent struggle; that's when they even start advising anything like this & it's always going to start with social aspects. Using binders to bind your chest, dressing more tradiotionally masc so people are more likely to perceive you that way, etc. If it does make you happy & you are satisfied, that's it. You don't NEED to go farther than that. You always have the freedom to opt out. If you need more, than you move onto puberty blockers. I decided that I can't do the hormones & stuff because of my specific problems & after being told of all the possible risks by the therapists & doctors; determined that it would put me too much of a risk. My body is weak; I was malnourished growing up & I abused my body. It just will screw up what fragile balance I have & possibly even kill me. Mortality rates for actual bottom surgery are not great to say the least. Performing THAT on children is the only unethical part. Hormones CAN cause mood disorders, weight gain, acne, weird hair growth, certain re[roductive disorders, etc., but generally they're not that likely to actually kill or disable. Just cause treatable annoyances. I am just way too fragile rn to even consider that. Gender affirming care also aims to affirm you as an individual regardless of your body. It does not push any "indoctrination" & it does not push people to seek further stuff. It gets you to think deeply & really consider the pros + cons of the decision you're trying to make in a place where you won't be ostracized either way. This is what most "leftists" want; ability to choose according to their own belief systems w/o threat of their individual freedoms taken away or lives being lost due to their beliefs.
The fact they act like the effects are "permanent and irreversible" just shows how little they care to even slightly look into it. You can start puberty blockers as a teen that will have long term side effects barely any worse than any average medication even if you choose to stop once you're an adult. And if you don't and continue other steps it'll have massive mental health benefits.
I think it is really fun when conservatives or anti trans agendas try to say taking hormones is bad for you. I am a non-binary afab who takes Spironolactone (estrogen) because I have NATURALLY elevated levels of testosterone. I was born with female genitalia and sex hormones and still have elevated testosterone. The doctors prescribed me Spironolactone to help balance out my hormone levels even though it has never caused me any issues with or without the medication. It is so funny how people don’t find an issue with me taking estrogen until I tell them I am non-binary even though me taking estrogen has NOTHING to do with gender affirming care. It really shows how just taking the word hormones and transgender and putting them together gets people all rilled up. This is just my experience so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Someone should give Matt Walsh a history lesson....drag has been around since the dawn of time. Say, for example, back when women weren't allowed to be actors: In Shakespear's plays all the female roles would be played by men in drag, yet somehow the population of London did not all turn gay. Strange.

I am so sorry to all the people in the LGBTQ community who have suffered at the hands of people who have called themselves Christian. My faith absolutely condemns this behavior as we're *supposed to* spread love and acceptance of oneself and others. People have butchered this and let it become something that it was always intended to oppose. I am so so sorry to any poor soul who's been effected by Christian bigotry. It's not at all the way of Christ
No your faith doesn’t condem this behavior. Homosexuality is literally a sin in the Bible, so don’t try to say “we’re supposed to spread love and acceptance”.

Have you considered simply removing the books from the reach of children? no one is upset when 50 Shades of Grey isn’t in school libraries for obvious reasons.

And how does “we don’t want 10 year olds reading about gay sex” explain all the books about black history being banned?

It’s especially juicy that those same republicans that ‘want’ to ‘protect children’ also are trying to repeal child labor laws and lower the age of consent. Huh.

Funny Story: I actually learned about the existence of gay people through the last book in the Captain Underpants series when I was like nine. I don't really remember the exact events (this was like five years ago, mind you). I think the mcs, who are both dudes, travel in time to the future and met their future selves as adults, and one of them has a husband. I was a little confused, but it didn't bug me at all. After I finished it, I asked my mom and older brother about it, and they were like, "Oh yeah, some people love people of the same sex and there's nothing wrong with that" and I was like "alright sounds legit" and moved the hell on. It did not take away my innocence or turn me gay, I'm straight. Honestly, the only people who actually think that a kid knowing the existence of gay people is going to harm them are straight adults who didn't learn about gay people until they were older and think that it has to be like that for everyone. They're really just assholes looking for an excuse for their bigotry.
Hell yeah Captain underpants!! My fave. It’s cool to see someone who learned great things from it :)))
I think that was the first introduction to gay people I can remember (my mom says I knew earlier, when I was like 3) and I just didn't care that much, the last book was my favorite though
@@U2Two I mean I don't read them anymore and I can't remember half the shit that happened in those novels, but I will forever be glad that young kids will have good representation like that in media. I wish it was more common and wasn't something that is so controversial.

yo i never knew captain underpants had gay rep, that's pretty cool. i only ever read the first couple (i don't think many had been released when i was in the target audience in terms of age range) but that's based, and tbh from what i remember of the books i can imagine that.
We actually had a shooting in a gay bar in our country last year. My teacher said to us -knowing that some of us are queer- that this happened because we talk too much about gay people being marginalized and because we are "solving problems that don't exist". She said that she "has gay friends" and they don't have any problems living in our country, therefore everyone elses problems dont exist either. She said that the death of those kids were our fault. Because we wore pride flags during pride month. While looking me in the eyes the entire time. No empathy whatsoever.

It is insane that they frame drag queens as groomers, while the same people and their party are unwillig to raise minimum marriage ages and set limits for marriage with parental consent? They completely ignoring the actual grooming that is happening in favour of a fake moral panic and vote grab...
i feel like the raising the minimum age for marriage doesn't compare to this though. Drag queens is a performance with a persona, where as this is just...a law, it doesn't really come in the form of a hobby that will influence children's behaviours because idk how they gon see a law dancing.
If we're old enough to vote, why aren't we old enough to get married.
And for the second one, I'm not sure what you mean, if i'm interpreting it correctly, needing a parent's consent to get married to a certain person?
Because nah man, I've seen too much nparent behaviour in a life time to not know that that's too much work.
And this greed of theirs is going to be reason for a long struggle of people.
@@adamas5925 What they are trying to say is that in the USA a certain political party is unwilling to raise the minimum age of marriage. When people under the age of eighteen or so wish to marry, they need their parents' consent. Republicans do not want to raise the minimum of age of marriage, ergo they don't want to end child marriages. There are certain states where children are being married off with the permission of their parents. People want this minimum age limit to be lifted so child marriages would stop, but the party does not seem to be in the favor to do so. The problem is not people old enough to vote marrying, it's people not old enough to vote getting married with eh consent of their parents.
@@adamas5925 it is about child marriage. In some states you can get married basically from 0 years old as long as you parents consent. The discussion on drag queens is also leading towards legal changes "to protect kids" while these laws remain the same and republicans do not seem to have any concern to change them. This law influences a childs entire life, because their own consent is not needed for the marriage and in some stated they cannot get divorced until they are 18.
Child marriage def has more influence on kids than a drag brunch.

i learned about gay people from a very young age. it did not “turn me gay”, i’m straight. i was not confused in the slightest when i was told what makes someone gay.
i was just like, “oh, okay” and that’s it.
fuck the bigots who lie about how this shit affects children. just admit that you’re extremely closed-minded and need to make up a justification to hate.
I saw plenty of straight people on TV. Didn't turn me straight
It's similar the other way around too. Someone can not even know what a gay person is and still feel attraction to the same sex, regardless of whether they're able to articulate it or not. Who "influenced" them then? Just because you are kept away from the mere notion of queer people doesn't mean you can't be one. Hell, why is it bad to be gay in the first place, why must we feel the need to keep that idea away from our children? At the end of the day, we are all human, and it is sickening to see the bigots hate on other groups because they're different and need to find a way to justify that hate.
That happened with my sister when she was around six. My mom told her what gay meant and she accepted it and moved on. She came out as pansexual around half a year ago.
I'm almost certain that even you know that you don't fully believe what you're saying. Learning about gay people alone doesn't turn you gay, it's when they actively extend the measures they take to "teach" children about gay people that can change their perspective to adopt that view. Inviting a drag queen, someone who literally is no different to a pornstar, is an already used and overkill method many schools use to "teach" children about gay people. Then, you have the fact that lots of schools every June literally will change their school logo into a pride variant and then cover the entire interior of their school in pride flags; this is indisputably political, not educational. Frankly enough, schools end up neglecting the religious standards of religious students by literally turning what should've been a simple educational facility into a gay pornography range in the process.
Conservatives aren't only annoyed about it merely being taught in school subjects, we're talking about the extent to which "teaching children" about pride and where that is seemingly going. People like you will ALWAYS use euphemism to brush it off as "we're just being taught that gay people exist...?" and then refer to us as bigots when really we're saying these methods you're using to "teach" children about gay people are excessive, disgusting and detestably wrong, all the while fully knowing the unnecessary and excessive means that are taken to "educate" children on it. I'm sorry, but the moment that schools partook in embedding a pride variant flag every June (perhaps even earlier) was the moment it shifted from education to indoctrination.
Glen/Glenda, Chucky’s genderfluid kid, was MY FAVOURITE character when I was young and I’m still cis!
I feel like some people are completely missing the point. No one is saying a 3rd grader should learn every little thing about the queer community, what we're saying is if they are allowed to see a cute straight relationship in a show or movie why can't they see a queer one? If a queer relationship being shown is considered indoctrination then isn't it the same for a straight relationship?
but straight romance is normal, how could it possibly be indoctrination? (/s) it's so backwards and exhausting. "seeing gay makes you gay" all while ignoring all the straight i had to see and still wound up gay. all the cis i had to see and still wound up trans. i'on think it works how these people think it works.
I don't understand why some people find straight relationships okay but not non-straight relationships. What's the problem?
its screaming at the wind. they didn’t teach slavery or the genocide of the natives and they still dont. the education system is for privileged people anyways . if u want a socially educated child, dont pop one out an expect public school to do that. you are an adult thats your job. an if u pop out kids and not adopt a child already born an in need, i dont feel sorry for you anyways. if u can’t educate your child properly then you need them taken an given to someone who is capable and educated in child psychology.
This logic is forgetting straight is the default. It's what's common and considered natural. The same way we would want to show them healthy relationships and not bdsm ones.
@@zelirious4504 a bdsm relationship can be a healthy relationship,what are you talking about?
And straight isn't the "default" it's just the most common,but that's no excuse to not teach kid ",hey,not everyone is straight,and we should accept them"or else a lot of them will be taught by their parents who might not accept non straight,and jam lies and false information into the kids head about said non straight people.
the grooming argument is mindbogglingly stupid cause isnt majority of pedophile cases a cis straight man preying on young girls
Me and my bf both faces shit and the hands of a grown man on a power trip. I was groomed and he was raped and it has nothing to do with the person themselves. A groomer is not a drag queen a groomer is not a gay person a groomer is not a black person
A groomer is a groomer
Ok, could we assure to have a minimal decence to keep childen from complex matters ? To explore kid's naivety in exposing on explicit and immoral just seems wrong :/ . LGBT+ has enough support via media, content, etc. With information everywhere, it wont take longer to them to discover that area. Its like a river, we just let it flow to whoever feels like, and thats great. We just can't shove it down like some class-like obligation, the freedom of one ends where it interferes with other's freedom, and it includes childhood innocence right. Bless ur day
+ I discord with "theres only two genders stuff" , everybody have right to feel what they want to be like. To *themselves*
@samuelrebelo9301 Do you mean that it's explicit and immoral to be queer? It's not like being told that some people are gay is going to ruin kids' innocence or something.
@@uhuh9859 It's not about what people identify themselves as, its their right and freedom as everybody else. I'm about on justifying real obscene acts upon children as pride movement and agenda stuff. Talking about there's gays out there is simple and noble, the problem is about overreacting and overdoing knowledge about in an ill way. We got to to create easy and educational classes as foundations for the child. Dont need to rush as everybody will have a more mature mentality to deal with, later, as this theme is everywhere.
So that's why im don't support the LGBT+ itself, but i do for singular and individual non-straight ones. Mb if i did overcomplicate stuffs
Still, i disdain the negative feedback on gay, lesbian, etc about what they simply are, on the video.
@@samuelrebelo9301 I'm all for protecting children, but the way you phrase that makes it seem as if the LGBTQ+ community is sexually abusing children, which it isn't. Child abuse happens rarely, but it isn't more common than abuse outside of the movement. In fact, I've noticed a lot of the pride community distance themselves from groomers and those who genuinely harm children. And I've been exposed to pride as a kid, but I still maintained my innocence (until the internet ruined that 😬).
The pride movement is deeply intertwined with queer people, and we wouldn't have the rights or acceptance we have today without it, so putting down the community (which is queer in its entirety) does hurt queer people.
Homophobes like to put out propaganda about how the queer community and its members are gooming kids and abusing them (first it was the gays, now it's the trans people), all so they can get their anti-queer legislation passed. I hate to see it when people who otherwise support queer people throw that at the community as a whole.
Btw, I'm not like trying to come as rude or unkind or anything. It's hard to convey tone across text 😅.

That Matt Walsh speech near the beginning might have honestly been the worst thing I’ve ever listened to in this modern day. Its this viscerally irrational hatred masked behind this polished, ‘balanced’ appearance. It’s terrifying.
I don't even think it's masked behind anything. It made me recoil in horror. A visceral fantasy of torturing people he deems lesser. It's gloves off fascism.
I’ve become almost desensitized to the constant hate going on in our world, but hearing what he said actually made my chest heavy. It just doesn’t make any sense to me and it never will, as to why people try so hard to demonize and essentially try to eradicate people just living 😢
he's talking about grown men that want to give lap dances to children, not the gay community as a whole...you realize this right?
the fact that that distinction is not made here is kinda why theres a divide growing.
theres nothing irrational about hating that, and there are already laws I presume you support against doing that.
is your position truly, that any society that opposes minors to be involved in simulated public sex acts is fascist?
what i see happening is called motte and bailey....where extremists in the community claim the right to do some pretty out-there things(thats the bailey...then when they are pushed back on, the wider community says "we just want to live" (which is the motte and makes attackers look extreme)....
theres two different things happening there...if you want peace, you need to police your own extremists, or else someone like matt walsh will show up and denounce them, and you for covering for them...
gay rights =/= men in dresses rubbing on 6th graders. if you tie that together, with the normal progress that LGBT movements have made in record time... you'll lose everything you've worked for, and you'll deserve it.
@@apokatastasian2831 he’s generalizing drag queens and drag in its entirety though; pedophilia and being queer is not connected, matt is being prejudicial and is fear mongering.
@@apokatastasian2831 Drag queens don't do that though. It's generally already a shitty thing to do to sexualize someone's identity, but to then go a step further and conflate that sexualized perversion of someone else's identity with pedophilia, in order to gather an excuse to oppress them.
You do realize this trick goes back decades, right? Homophobes in the 70s said all gay people are pedophiles and accused them of sexually harassing their children at school by... Being allowed to teach normal subjects there at all.
Also the fact you're defending someone who openly states themselves as a "theocratic fascist" makes me think you should really re-evaluate why you're saying what you're saying.

Like tbh I think the issue is more with a person than the actual object. It's kind of like a hand. On one hand the hand can be used to feed the homeless on the other hand it can be used to strike some one. I mean if we restrict gun access will that really be the end of the problems? People will find another way to hurt people no matter what you restrict access to. I believe we need better health care. But that's just me I guess.

One of the things about this that gets my goat that isn't really talked about is how all this nonsense about LBGTQ+ being groomers means that *actual* groomers are getting looked at less. It's gonna become *really* difficult within the next few years to take *any* such accusation seriously because of how much it's being overused and misused.
Basically what I'm saying is: I wouldn't be surprised at all if that's an intended side effect of this new wave of propoganda. Like a magician playing sleight of hand to make us all look in the wrong direction.
Still... I'm pretty sure that the upcoming generations are going to be way more accepting of LBGTQ+ people, despite this attempt to demonise them. My main concern is the damage that will be done in the short term.
That and it's scary that places like Texas and Florida are passing more laws to protect adults treating their children like property and churches in communities that may systematically abuse people.
Statistics show us again and again that the main culprits behind child grooming and r*pe are from paternal family members (fathers, uncles, brothers, male cousins, etc) and people in positions of power that have access to children (priests, politicians, police officers, teachers, etc). And with these laws coming in that demonize LGBTQ+ people while protecting the main demographics responsible for these crimes can and will ultimately punish almost every innocent party while allowing the abusive parties to maintain power over others and furthermore to allow access to those groups they want to abuse.
I've seen a good number of people point out that sadly this is probably part of the real goal. Get the average citizens at each others throats so that the real abusers go unchecked.
Good point
That's always the goal, accuse the other side of what you're doing.
The reality is that the term "groomer" was first proliferated by left wing Twitter as a false accusation against relationships with any perceived power imbalances, even 19 year old CallMeCarson dating a 17 year old as a prime example. Then the right adopted that false accusation term, and started using it to bring back the classic homophic "gay people will harm your kids!" claim but with modern language.
The term was already rendered meaningless the moment the internet popularized it. Left wing twitter is to blame for starting the improper use of the term, and the right is to blame for making the situation worse.
It is best for the term to die altogether. If an accusation is real, call the police and press charges, otherwise the term should not be taken seriously when used online.

I'm not going to tell you who to vote for, but I would consider voting blue until we defeat these hateful weirdos and our country is out of danger from them. Also, your apology is welcome but not necessary. Just glad some are waking up to how insane, dangerous, and hateful this is.
Unfortunate you resort to lying about your ideas and ability to discern reality from fiction but I suppose if you are pressured from all sides the weak fall first.

I am sure you'll return, although I won't be holding my breath. Good luck to you not going insane in the meantime.
Thank you so much for your honesty in this, I've been feeling down lately about how bigotry seems to be gaining traction. I fear that every hate crime I've heard of could happen to someone I know and for everyone still having to live in places where they live endangered everyday - I fear for all these brilliant young queer people I know personally and when I think about all this fearmongering and lying that endangers them, I just... struggle to understand how anyone can want this. Struggle to understand how anyone can support the people who want to hurt them so badly. Whenever I think about people who would willingly excuse this behavior and continue supporting those people, I wonder if it's possible for someone to snap out of it?
I'm happy you posted this. I know it must've taken a lot of courage and introspection to stop standing by the side you'd been loyal to for the sake of other people's well-being. I hope you're doing well for yourself and are continuing to choose peace and courage, not just politically but in your daily life - that there will be plenty of opportunities for you to feel like you can truly stand for other people's rights now. I know shame doesn't feel good, but it's a healthy response. I don't think you'll have to feel that way for long. I hope more people who are still willing to vote these dangerous people into power start realizing it's not worth it
TLDR: I've been terrified for my community lately, but even thought I can't speak everyone - Apology accepted. I really needed to hear this today. I want to believe people can change.
Thank you so much for being open and intelligent enough to grow and be better. They seems to be too difficult for many right wingers. You are a good person for rising above that.
Two party systems are dangerous in general. Absolutely support voting third party. Even blue is still considered right-wing. I don't know about American third parties, but imo the only Canadian one that actually supports people's rights and them coming together is NDP. Wishing peace to wherever you're living soon.
Seeing this rise in politics genuinely terrifies the hell out of me. I can’t believe that people see me and people like me as monsters and something they need to erase. I’ve always been proud of my identity and now I have to worry about who I tell and my safety. My existence is seen as a dangerous “ideology.” Im so tired. Thank you for breaking this whole situation down so well! Trans people will always exist, we’ll always be here no matter how hard these people try to push down.
You can't accept yourself the way you were, that you mutilate yourself and think you are the other sex, so why on earth should I accept you?
we can't erase you, you are confused about your identity. you are born the sex you were and that defines you, you don't get to pick

The bigots have never prevailed over any marginalized group. Be it black, jewish, romani, queer, whatever. Even though it's hard right now, I do feel some comfort in knowing that the bigots will always be on the wrong side of history. We may be few, but we are strong (like an ox lol)
You're so right, i don't comment often but you're right. You are on the right side of history, we all are, just keep fighting the good fight but progress is a pendulum, just think of all the progress LGBT rights has come to, yes it wasn't perfect but at least it became less awkward to be gay and tv shows had queer characters people could relate to but it always felt niche, like tokenisation almost but it was ok. the pendulum has swung the other way now, with more pushback than ever in the modern era, but believe me sir that once the pendulums swings back, life will be great again, just hold on in there and stay safe, take care 🖤.

I'm 14 years old and a lesbian. I found out I was gay when I was 12. Guess what else was happening when I was 12? Lockdown. I had absolutely no no contact with older queer people, I just watched a Marvel movie and thought Scarlett Johansen was hot. Should we cancel Marvel for indoctrination? Or, matter of fact cancel being hot because that is what made me gay.
Recently, my sister and I went to some pride events around my community. My sister is straight. Guess what? After those events, she was still straight!!!!11!!1 Isn't that crazy! It's almost like being gay is controlled by hormones in your brain, and not being around drag queens! Crazy, right?
its almost like children are capable of having thoughts and opinions or something, never would've thought of it 🤯
Man if only every bigot could listen to you, they would stop using the same children indoctrination argument… for about 2 days tho, they love using the same terrible arguments, even though they’ve been proven wrong long ago.
I am so very afraid of the upcoming years. I thought my husband and I might finally be able to settle down and start our family. But it looks like we're going to have to move again. Our state is even passing laws that mean we wouldn't be allowed to adopt if one of the people reviewing is as candidates decided their religious view meant gay people shouldn't have children. All I want is to live a quiet life with my soul mate and raise children who might have better odds than we did at stability and happiness, but even that seems like an impossibility now...
I hope that your situation gets better. 😁

Move to Sweden or Iceland. No bull shit, better weather, urbanist and most importantly actually have 'freedom'.
@@LA5TL0VER unfortunately it's waaaaay to cold in both those places for me. I really can't live anywhere that gets more than a month of lower than 0°C.... Otherwise I'd definitely move somewhere like that.
@@Radhaun In fairness, Iceland's climate is regulated by the Gulf Stream, giving it a subpolar oceanic climate, and so winter temperatures for its latitude are 'mild' with a maximum low of -3C, an average of 2C, and a max of 4C. Summer however is much colder than in Sweden (because Swedens climate is continental, like in the US, with wide gaps between temperatures. So Sweden in winter is where you're looking at -20C, but in the summer, rather warm). That is in comparison to where it never really gets above 15C ever in Iceland. If that's still too cold for you, consider the Netherlands or Germany which both have *almost* the same tolerance of LGBTQ+ as Scandinavian countries but without the weather. Avoid Switzerland, the UK, Italy, and a lot of Eastern Europe.
Just remember everyone, the older members of our community had to fight hard to gain rights for us, but it is too easy for us to lose them again. Whether you're left wing or right wing, introducing anti-LGBTQ+ laws goes against democracy and basic human rights. Stay strong members of the Pride Community!

This narrative you push about trans people is statistically irrelevant and does not represent a trend in society. The detransition rate of gender affirming care is 2%, and the bulk of detransitions are caused by peer pressure from family and financial circumstances not allowing them to pursue further treatment. You have fallen for an image that is statistically insignificant and fueled mainly by grifters.
@@realhumanbean7915 how about suicide rate, isnt it like a flip of a coin
@systic gmd 5% of the US says their gender is different than what they were assigned at birth. That's about 16 million people. On average in the US and Canada, 1% express regrets about it, and over 80% of THEM regret it because of the discrimination they face for transitioning. That's about 160,000 people. 0.4% or 64,000 detransition because they weren't happy with the actual results.
Yes, people do detransition, but they are an incredibly small minority and it would be stupid to dehumanize and attempt to destroy an entire population over that tiny percentage. The fact is if people aren't happy, detransitioning is a very real, very simple process.
Edit: A very small minority of an already small minority. No child is getting surgeries or irreversible damage done to them. Drag queens aren't molesting them en masse in libraries. The argument for why kids shouldn't see these things is pretty much the same reason nutter butters got worked up over the Little Mermaid not being a white woman. Times change, and if you're stuck in the past you can't honestly expect the entire world to sit around with you.
Hello, trans youth here. starting off with debunking some idiots in the comments. I figured out I was trans all by myself. I am christian, and struggle with going to church because of queerphobia. My mental health has improved since finding people that accept and love me.
Now hear this from a trans CHILD
I am scared to visit my mema because she lives in tx. I am scared that I might get taken away from my parents, I am scared I'll get harassed or attacked for being trans. I'm scared in my own state, where someone at my school recently threatened a gay guy in my grade. We had to go on lockdown. HE STILL GOES TO MY SCHOOL.
These laws that are meant to "protect me" are what could end up with me not being alive. I have to do research on what states I can go to safely. This is America. Your children are terrified. Protect trans kids.
Very well spoken
Facts ❤️ I and so many others are with you. We will stand strong
Seeing people getting so upset over drag readings is mind boggling to me. A fully clothed adult is reading an age appropriate book, in a public place, to a child supervised by a parent or trusted adult. There is actually no reason to get angry over that.
a draggie is a sexual deviant, their actions are inherently aimed at sex if they are wearing the wrong sex's clothing

@@007kingifrit the clothes don't have chromosomes how is it the wrong one 💀
@@007kingifrit
1. wearing the "wrong sex's clothing" has no inherent sexual intent. sex has no innate, biological correlation to clothing style, and going against the (completely arbitrary and socially constructed) grain in an exaggerated way doesn't translate to being a sexual deviant in the first place. exaggerated masculinity by a man isn't inherently sexual; exaggerated femininity by a woman isn't inherently sexual; why would crossing the barrier be?
2. because mailmen and bakers are widely accepted in society? they don't need a "mailman story hour" to educate others because nobody is actively campaigning against the mailman's rights to self expression.

It's disheartening. And these laws that may restrict gender surgery will affect people like me also if we ever decided for it later in life. Sometimes for someone like me hormone replacement or suppliments, or puberty blockers, or surgery is needed when complications arise from how we were born. Either as a teen or adult. These restrictions would negatively affect everyone who needs it for a variety of reasons.
And not to mention intersex people are being unethically operated on at birth... and that still happens today in secret. Which barely gets any traction to be completely banned, only a few hospitals have denounced it from what I've seen.
It's a sad world.
( sorry for any poor English.)
I am sorry for what you're going through - I know that's rich for some random idiot on the internet, but I want you to know I completely agree with what you are saying. I've heard this panic is also effecting androgynous girls and women. Until the day I die I will making videos mentioning the existence of and fighting for the rights of intersex people. But the sad thing is, I kinda don't know how to effectively fight for the rights of intersex people. My only attempt at praxis is to educate but most importantly provide and support and dual power teachers who'd educate youths who'd grow up into the doctors and professionals and pundit and office workers err my point is by making the next generation at the least aware and are wiling to change themselves and society, we recover the next generation of people. However, winning the culture war is a part of this, and so, from my experience, educating youths and supporting those who do ultimately would be the path to win it. I would love to hear what you think or something. My apologies if I came off rude or something.
Thank you- there should always 100% be solidarity between trans people and intersex people. Our issues may be different, but we often get hit with the same hate. I always try to remind people that intersex people exist too, and tell them about the hidden issue of those unconsentual surgeries at birth when people try to argue that there are only two genders and think that gender and sex are directly the same thing- if more people knew about intersex people it would honestly help both of our struggles. We're all stronger together.
I know this isn't relevant but mate your English is better than 99% of native speakers on the internet lol, don't sweat it
Intersex people in general and REAL studies on intersex birth rates just throw a wrench in all their statements so they consistently try to make it seem like it's a 1 in a million chance and totally negligible.

Associating anyone, particularly already marginalised minorities with "grooming" is effectively incitement to violence and law enforcers should recognise it as such.
Would you then say it's okay to associate a group with grooming if the group is not marginalised in your view?
@@dfmrcv862 That doesn't follow.
Suffice it to say however, that a marginalised group is going to be less familiar to the public, people will be less likely to know a member of that group personally, and therefore untrue stories about that group will be more likely to be believed, with less chance of being disproved by personal experience. The marginalised group will have less or no access to media platforms and will be less able to fight back or set the record straight than a larger more familiar group. Marginalised groups are therefore more vulnerable and more likely to suffer much more dire consequences from being represented as a threat.
@@LouiseBrooksBob okay, but my question was if you believed it was alright to start associating groups who are not really marginalized with groomers?

In terms of the grooming accusations, one piece I think is most interesting is that the rhetoric you see today is borrowed. I say this because in 1977 there was a coalition formed in Miami, Florida called the Save Our Children coalition that used the same rhetoric that is today against trans people existing which was then used against gay people simply wanting buy homes, and from their pamphlet, in their reference to gay people, I quote the first text seen on the front fold/side 1: "Save our children from homosexuality." Then on you can find places on side 2 that says "it endangers our children," among other familiar phrases today like "it threatens your home," and "it attacks free enterprise." The pamphlet includes so many accusations but it is purely rhetoric and anecdote-based, in that it includes no case studies, no graphs, no numbers, no sources cited whether scholarly or professional, and other than the aforementioned anecdotal references it relies solely on the projection of religious beliefs against the group of people at hand.

Why does the government care so much about these things?! When their actions and new laws are causing so much harm? Do they genuinely think they're doing the right thing?
1) Culture wars distract the masses from Government efforts to transfer even more wealth and power to the elites while everyone else gets screwed. This is the biggest reason why both parties in America engage in culture war battles (Democrats and Republicans treat the rich and powerful fairly similarly when you look closely, despite telling the people different things)
2) Democrats did many of the same things to the unvaccinated and other populations who did not fit into their expected fear of and approach to dealing with COVID-19. Lots of what we are seeing towards LGBTQ people is likely driven by a desire to retaliate against the Democrats for their infringements of the rights of the People, while more is likely the result of such restrictions on people's personal medical decisions now being within the Overton window of American politics.
3) With all the religious nutjobs who think they are literally doing the work of God by passing these laws, yes, plenty of them think they're doing the right thing.
My perspective is that the whole situation is emotional, and not logical. This means that there is no definite proof of anything really, and the answer will never be logical. Any answer, as long as it isn't universally considered (among ALL sides of the political spectrum) to be complete horseshit, will be both correct and wrong at the same time.

@@sorentothesky What misinformation?
the idea that like letting kids be exposed to gay content means that they'll turn out gay is so fundamentally stupid. i'm bi and trans. i was exposed to only straight content my entire childhood. and yet here i am! two of my mom's best friends are a lesbian couple - and yet she's straight. it's not contagious.
the "grooming" allegation comes down to the idea that men wearing makeup, etc, is inherently sexual. which like... why? in what way? you can say 'kids shouldn't be in a strip club', and sure, fair enough! i think there are certainly some sexual situations kids shouldn't be in; i don't think they should be allowed at, say, hooters, either! but have you seen any of the queens actually doing those story hours? it's the same level of makeup and clothing that a pantomime character or a clown would be wearing. and if you think clowns are inherently sexual at that point i feel like thats something youve gotta work out with yourself
but the thing is, people see gay and trans identities as inherently sexual in a way they don't see straight or cis identities, even though on a fundamental level that makes no sense. i can't help but wonder how long it's going to be until the three-article laws from the 40s-60s make a return. (or even from before - like the story of the what we would probably call trans guy from 1913-ish was jailed for three years on the grounds that “No girl would dress in men’s clothing unless she is twisted in her moral viewpoint,". even though its from the beginning of the 20th century, doesn't that just feel like something matt walsh could say?
i don't know, man. i've got it pretty easy, because i'm stealth - no one who looks at me thinks i'm anything but a cis guy. but it's hard not to worry. i'm definitely going to make sure my passport/license gender gets changed before i go anywhere near, say, texas or florida.
My best guess is that the people who say that are privately gay or bi themselves, so they assume that whatever tempts them is going to tempts
@@technoloverish For sure, as a straight person I've never once felt tempted to be gay. seeing gay relationships in the media did not make me question anything. these homophobes are clearly projecting their own closeted attraction to the same sex.
@@technoloverish No. Stop with this nonsense. It may not be intentional on your part, but this takes accountability away from straight people more than you can imagine. There are millions of straight people who believe this, and who spread these sorts of ideas. Stop pinning it on closeted gay people, when this has been an issue that gay people have had to deal with at the hands of straight people for generations.
Likewise, me being exposed to sexual content didn't turn me any less Ace lol
@@exposureeee
Oh, for sure, there a plenty of genuinely straight people who have been oppressing gay people. It's just that when their homophobia comes along with s*xualizing things like pride flags, it's rather strange and not very normal for a straight person to to views those things that way. To be fair, a gay person probably isn't going to s*xualize such things either. Nonetheless, a closeted gay person or bi person who is ashamed of their s*xuality could potentially view such things as s*xualizing. Basically, the point is that plenty of straight people are homophobic and are responsible for oppressing gay people, though a certain subgroup of homophobic people who make these wild claims about things like pride flags being s*xual may be people who themselves are insecure about their own identity and projecting that insecurity
I'm in Canada, and while generally Canada is seen as more progressive, it's scary how much of the USA ideas and division has extended up here. There are so many things here that I never would have thought I'd see. I'm scared to say too much, I'm scared to be myself, and I never know who is safe to discuss things with, even in a fairly "liberal" area.
These discussion are so often between genderexperts, medical doctors and psychologists, and then on the other side is just "some guy". So frustrating.
Identifying acceptance, tolerance and simple human decency as cultism attached to whatever identity is being targeted, draws attention away from the genuine religious cults attempting to use trans people as a wedge to help them take back control of human rights on a broader front. Drawing attention away from the religious motivation behind the anti trans war of persecution is even more important given how religion has lost its reputation in the chosen battlegrounds of women's rights and child safeguarding. In fact, these are issues that have prompted many people to reject the organised part of religion.
Stop lying. Your movement has not been about tolerance or acceptance for a long time. It is about the next sexual revolution, even if it means sacrificing the health and lives of children. Get out of your worldview bubble. Watch Matt Walsh's lectures, read the critiques of your environment, learn about the history of gender theory and its founders. It only takes a little effort to significantly change the attitude towards your environment. The more we reliably learn about LGBT communities, the more negative attitudes we take towards them.
Yes and satanism and Marxism are certainly a perfect alternative for many of these people…
We can gladly criticize the church for their faults but, do not pretend that much of homosexual community do not seek radical circles that exhibit the same level of irony as any religious dominion!
I assure you that Christianity is quite fair, but your beliefs stem from growing radicalism, and the church is an obvious superpower that stands in your way. Point being, do not act as if you are any more noble in this crusade of yours.
LGBT IS a religion. Tell me how is the belief, that a person is "born in the wrong body," not a quasi-religious one? Nobody says that people with schizophrenia or autism are born in the wrong body.
@@artemkatelnytskyi “born in the wrong body” isn’t actually a great way to explain what it means to be transgender. It’s something the media used, as it was easy to visualise. Because of the use in media, it automatically became a common saying in everyday language. A better way to describe it would be: wanting people to perceive you as another gender then your biological sex.
@@artemkatelnytskyi When some trans people say that they were born in the wrong body, that is an experiential statement, not a religious statement. They are trying to find words to express what it feels like to be them.
All of this breaks my heart and scares me so much, I'm genuinely scared to go out lol... But anyway, everyone stay safe
the fear campaign is the primary goal. the laws, believe it or not, are secondary to installing this broad and engrained fear in everyone. living* as yourself in sheer defiance is an extremely revolutionary act and you should hold your head high in the process.

oh my god. I always knew Matt Walsh was bad but always avoided his stuff, that small section at the start of him speaking made my jaw drop with each sentence he was spewing, so effortlessly, so naturally, I could feel my skin crawl. Im not even trans but being near him would make me be shaken to my very core in fear that he would do something to me. This is so scary. All strength to to all transg people out there.
But do you know exactly what he was reacting to? Hint: it wasn't a drag queen simply reading a book.
I didn't know I could get this angry
Mart walsh: I literally want you off the same planet as me and think you shouldn't exist.
This guy: "But wHat wAS the CONtext thou.... 🤪"
Mate, his other content provides the context. Dude literally equates drag queens and trans people with groomers, literally states that drag queens by their meer existence are a danger to children, literally lies about gender affirming care to bolster his agenda. But nah you're here saying "But that CONtext thou 🤓"
Bloody hell.
@@herobrine024 Even with this context I still would be afraid of being near him regardless, because this is hate speech by the end of the day. Hate speech shouldn't be normalized under any circumstance. It only works as a systemic oppression tactic, any group that is considered a minority suffers from this. Misogynists take bad things that are done by feminists not to talk about the problem at hand but to find justification their misogynistic beliefs, racists pick up bad things people that aren't white did to justify racism, homophobes and transphobes do the exact same thing, its only history repeating itself, and the way Walsh voices it, sounds like its getting to the level of necropolitics too.
He could have talked about his frustration, talked about solutions, in so so many other ways, but the fact that he chose hate speech is already a red flag by itself , because this is what his audience wants to see, and probably because he has hate inside him too, and wants to spread some fear. Because thats the only thing hate speech works for, I have suffered from the effects of hate speech, I know the feeling, it crawls in the back of your mind that someday you will be so hated for being compared to something awful that you had nothing to do with, that anyone will feel they have the right to do anything to you, and nobody will be there to protect you.
he's talking about men giving lap-dances to kids....pretty sure we all hate that and get pissed when we see it

I found myself nodding at that video of Watt Malsh saying "I don't want to share a planet with you," because I agree. I don't want to be around disgusting monsters like him who stoke fear and demonize groups of people for political gain. If he doesn't want to be on this planet, well, that's his problem and he should find a solution that does not involve harming anyone else.
really had me going for a second there reading that first sentance xx
Ooh, how hypocritical. Don't you agree?
This is so frustrating. Everyday I am reminded of just how ignorant the world is, how close-minded humans can be. Why can't we just let people be who they want to be? Why do people care so much about the identity of other people? I am a comfortable, cisgender, heterosexual male. I care about queer issues not because I am queer myself, but because I find it absolutely disgusting that people can be subjected to so much anger, hate, violence, just because they want to choose who they want to be.
Probably companies paying media to divert attention to non-issues, so they can keep profiting off a corrupt system. Easy to get people upset about minorities if you feed them the right propaganda.
That's just my conspiracy theory though.
IS THAT A TRUE ALY I SEE?
And even they succeeded, what will be the point if it affects the next generation of our world that is doomed with chaos and destruction?

Hell yes!
This is why I started a GSA (Gay Straight Alliance) in my middle school and junior high school here in NYS. 💪💪💪🏳️🌈
All students have a right to an after school GSA, according to the 1984 Equal Access Act. It’s a federal law.
This is what the 80s were like when open violent gay-bashing was seen by law enforcement and the majority of average people not as a one sided hate crime but a two sided problem between homophobes and people inciting violence by openly presenting as queer in public. Police often wouldn’t make arrests or arrest the queer victims as well because “the gays started it by provoking the skinheads to fight by shoving perversions in everyone’s face” by not pretending to be straight while walking down a sidewalk. And by 80s I mean that’s when things started to change because it was far worse each preceding decade.
I feel so bad for people in other states, it must be absolutely terrifying. My state just passed laws for legal protections for sexual orientation, gender identity and expression in this midst of this chaos and it made me so happy. It really does feel like there's unsafe and safe states now.
It's one of the most terrifying things the world has EVER known. Imagine going back to only just 5 years ago before this big push gender identity push. Oh the blood curling screams!! When I was going up and playing with other kids I can't recall anyone ever waiting to see a drag queen. You have to teach kids to care about stuff like this otherwise they just want to play fun games and have treats.
@@daa5249 what are you on about💀
Violent extremists see no borders. So while there may be legal protections in some states, that won't stop shooters and terrorists.
'Safe' is not really something that exists when the conservatives are being whipped into a frenzy, wrongly convinced that children are being harmed by drag queens and trans people. Some places are worse than others but I don't want people to be complacent because 'it would never happen here'.
Stay safe and vigilant.

How come gay couples holding hands is "indoctrination," and "inappropriate," but when straight couples hint at very sexual things in movies and shows in like 2nd grade, nobody says a word. Why is trans care on minors child abuse, when all it's doing is making the child happier and is extremely rarely (+ After a long time of being trans, so at that point, you're probably going to not detransition, and be trans for life), if at all negatively or permanently affecting them in any way? And one last question, why do these right wing conspiracists make up so many lies about the LGBTQ+ community, in an attempt to silence, harm, and neglect the community? Really, I'd like to know the thought process of those morons.
Fr, I was shown movies with erm adult scenes as a young kid, but they covered my eyes in a heartbeat if two people of the same sex kissed 💀
Also, what lies are speaking about and think of the human aspect from the 'left side' if, as you put it that right side is making up lies, now think hard of all the guaranteed lies the left is feeding you. Stop and think for yourself. Also, transitioning is a life long medical bill in one form or another. It is big business.

Thank you so much for making this! it was a heartbreaking watch, but so informative! Thank you. I'm from Denmark and part of the LGBTQ+ community, and I can say that the rise of anti-LGBTQ+ politics in America rubs off. Drag story hour in Copenhagen has had a lot of criticism and very uncomfortable protests. This is a scary time, but we are strong, we have to be! Happy pride month. I'm so proud to be part of this community.
I am trans myself, in America. And lately, it has been hard for me to act like a human when you are not being treated as one. I have a growing anger and hatred towards humanity lately. Yes I am venting.
As a trans person in Scotland, while I admit I am in a more fortunate place as the people in the devolved power of the Scottish Parliament do want to help the LGBTQ+ community for once, they are sadly at the whim of an increasingly prejudiced UK Government, which ended up being the reason a revolutionary reform to the Gender Recognition Act (which would have made the lives of trans people in Scotland easier) being blocked. It’s sad that many people in power seem to think attacking a small community of people who just want to exist in peace is the biggest problem in our society.
I’m a queer person from Denmark too, and I agree, I’m beginning to see people being more intolerant towards the lgbtq community, and it’s scary, I usually don’t tell people about my love life because I’m scared they will say something negative.
Obviously it’s not as bad in Denmark as it is in America, but a lot of people here agree with the right-winged Americans

What is really confusing is the fact that people assume gender affirming care = immediate reassignment surgery/ drugs ESP for children
I live in the goddamn Cali, as insanely blue as you can get. I am a trans minor, I know how it works & what it's like. There is a 6month to year requirement for therapy first off before you can rlly be considered as someone who needs to just embrace it (I've been in therapy for over 3 years; gender comes up fairly often & I'd been wrestling with it before I even entered the horrific internet). I am also a foster kid, meaning I obv have other issues which they have you try & weigh out in therapy. Onceit is determined to be an innate permanent struggle; that's when they even start advising anything like this & it's always going to start with social aspects. Using binders to bind your chest, dressing more tradiotionally masc so people are more likely to perceive you that way, etc. If it does make you happy & you are satisfied, that's it. You don't NEED to go farther than that. You always have the freedom to opt out. If you need more, than you move onto puberty blockers. I decided that I can't do the hormones & stuff because of my specific problems & after being told of all the possible risks by the therapists & doctors; determined that it would put me too much of a risk. My body is weak; I was malnourished growing up & I abused my body. It just will screw up what fragile balance I have & possibly even kill me. Mortality rates for actual bottom surgery are not great to say the least. Performing THAT on children is the only unethical part. Hormones CAN cause mood disorders, weight gain, acne, weird hair growth, certain re[roductive disorders, etc., but generally they're not that likely to actually kill or disable. Just cause treatable annoyances. I am just way too fragile rn to even consider that.
Gender affirming care also aims to affirm you as an individual regardless of your body. It does not push any "indoctrination" & it does not push people to seek further stuff. It gets you to think deeply & really consider the pros + cons of the decision you're trying to make in a place where you won't be ostracized either way.
This is what most "leftists" want; ability to choose according to their own belief systems w/o threat of their individual freedoms taken away or lives being lost due to their beliefs.
The fact they act like the effects are "permanent and irreversible" just shows how little they care to even slightly look into it.
You can start puberty blockers as a teen that will have long term side effects barely any worse than any average medication even if you choose to stop once you're an adult. And if you don't and continue other steps it'll have massive mental health benefits.
I think it is really fun when conservatives or anti trans agendas try to say taking hormones is bad for you. I am a non-binary afab who takes Spironolactone (estrogen) because I have NATURALLY elevated levels of testosterone. I was born with female genitalia and sex hormones and still have elevated testosterone. The doctors prescribed me Spironolactone to help balance out my hormone levels even though it has never caused me any issues with or without the medication. It is so funny how people don’t find an issue with me taking estrogen until I tell them I am non-binary even though me taking estrogen has NOTHING to do with gender affirming care. It really shows how just taking the word hormones and transgender and putting them together gets people all rilled up. This is just my experience so take what I say with a grain of salt.
Someone should give Matt Walsh a history lesson....drag has been around since the dawn of time.
