    You’re supporting people who hate you and want you dead.

    Getting booed off the beach should be the least of your worries.

    1. Definition of Marriage and Family: We support the definition of marriage as a God-ordained, legal, and moral covenant only between one biological man and one biological woman. Further, we support a traditional definition of family with only one biological man in the role of father and one biological woman in the role of mother. We are opposed to same-sex parenting, intentionally subjecting a child to the loss of their biological father or mother, and other non-traditional definitions of family.
    2. State Authority Over Marriage: We support withholding jurisdiction from the federal courts and nullifying federal Executive Branch rules, orders, regulations, or licensing requirements in cases involving family law, and especially any changes in the definition of marriage.
    3. Nullify Unconstitutional Ruling: We believe the Obergefell v. Hodges decision, overturning the Texas law prohibiting same-sex marriage in Texas, has no basis in the Constitution and should be nullified.

    I have zero sympathy for people who want to be secret bigots and are exposed for it. Our country is going to become overtly fascist in November in part due to these bastards.

      While I agree with your sentiment, this isn’t an example of ‘secret’ bigots as the article outlines:

      Like a lot of gay New Yorkers, Anthony Tolve and John McGuigan spent the final Sunday in June at the city’s massive Pride parade.

      But unlike most other attendees, the two flew massive rainbow flags expressing their support for former President Donald Trump.

      Mark Dorman, a retired schoolteacher from the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood, said he’s been practically blacklisted from his local gay bar, the Atlas Social Club, for his political affiliation. Dorman said he went public with his Trump love at the pub last summer, and he’s been feeling the anti-MAGA burn since.

    One of my friends is a MAGA gay. He is absolutely miserable and hates himself all just because he is gay and everyone around him except for me says its not okay. Its fucked up and I can’t seem to pull him out of that headspace.

      Why are you telling him his behavior is acceptable? That is doing him a huge disservice, especially if you are his “friend”. Call that shit out.

          Ah! I must have misunderstood their comment. It sounded like they were gay, MAGA, and people hated him for his MAGA behavior. Gay is fabulous, raging asshole is not.

        Personally, I think it’s great that MAGA guy has a voice of reason in his life

          Since when does reason mean a damn to the average MAGA fuck, let alone a queer one who ought to know better?

          I don’t necessarily disagree with you though, hell I agonize about this very thing since I have definitely run up against MAGA and threeper queers. One of whom I cut off an entire friend group over because he was always in that group. Another I tried staying in contact with to try to be a voice of reason for, but I just couldn’t take it at a certain point and had to cut the fucker off.

          Hell I have the same general struggle with my fox news addicted father - I cut him off for years after he ranted about mask mandates within MONTHS of his own daughter spending a week in intensive care from severe asthma complications.

          I dunno how to handle this shit and it really fucks me up.

    I knew a furry locally who was in a same sex relationship who one day just seemed to snap and have a whole political and religious meltdown, and vanished.

    Came back recently and made contact, I hoped he worked his shit out, but nah, still as far right as they come. Transphobic, racist, antisemitic AND pro-israel like these dumb fucks somehow tend to be.

    I wish I knew how this sort of thing happens. It’s heartbreaking. But at the end of the day a nazi is a nazi regardless of their inner contradictions
