      I had a conversation with someone this morning who wishes "all the gays would go back in the closet,” and I asked why, what are they doing that straight people don’t do. Their partner “rescued” them talking and the anti-zionists getting arrested and deported, despite their green cards.🤦

    Here is the song they’re so triggered by. It’s a fucking masterpiece, and I will be sorely disappointed if it doesn’t go viral from hate-publicity:
    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QSmYxKIs3PI

    (Sorry about the direct YouTube link; couldn’t find a single working Piped instance. What’s the MO these days?)

    Couldn’t find direct footage of the set either (outside of hate propaganda that I won’t click on), but if anyone wants to go looking there are some details here (from her Linktree):

      lol well i guess i kind of understand why they are upset, and i don’t think it’s about gender

        It is very much because of gender. If you google ‘bernie sanders laura jane grace’ you will find nothing but outrage-farming by all the usual culprits. If a cis musician had done this a few bigots might have whined, but the right-wing outrage machine wouldn’t have chosen it for their Two Minutes’ Hate.

        Laura probably knows they’re gonna come for her anyway, might as well be aggravating about it. That feels pretty damn punk to me.

        P.S. no masters and especially no gods

          idk i feel like even if a cis white woman (a man would be normally better [for them], but in this case it’s automatically ew gei) were to sing “Does your god have a big fat dick? Cause it feels like he’s fucking me” that would not go down well with especially today’s emboldened christian right

      Absolutely, plus their outrage at anyone not like them. I’m visiting family, two of which are Trumpets, and they have been upset enough to comment by…

      • Non-white people expressing gratitude to their non-European origin cultures
      • Non-white performers chosen by non-white judges on reality television (“they only chose him because they’re both black”)
      • People speaking in a language other than English
      • A trans woman in a movie portrayed as a normal person and accepted by their peers without comment
      • A woman not adhering to local societal norms (she wasn’t wearing makeup in public! Scandal!)
      • A movie portraying an overweight woman as attractive to a non-overweight man
      • Anyone expressing dismay over the stock market taking a dive, despite no one mentioning Trump
