Members DRW50 Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 The Village People don't even have a connection to gay culture or life in recent years so the attention on them feels like another smokescreen to me. I imagine those on the left who believe that all gay men are Republicans and are eagerly waiting for them to lose their rights will be enjoying all this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 When I try to parse this, I quickly become confused. Those on the left, so liberals, who somehow believe that all gay men are Republicans, now, here, you see, I am thoroughly stuck, why would any liberal think that ALL gay men happen to be Republicans?!! I don't think they would think that. Aren't Log Cabin Republicans a small minority of a minority? If we say, for just one example, that all LGBTQ+ people make up 10% of the population, then just gay, men, who are Republicans, would likely be, what, 2%?

Members DRW50 Posted January 19 Members Share Posted January 19 (edited) Not liberals. Dead end leftists and more radical types. Many believe almost all gay men, especially white gay men, are rich, conservative, and bigoted. They will tell you that the only good gay men died of AIDS 40 years ago.

Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 No wonder I got confused! But, what you're saying reflects some really disgusting people with disgusting ideas! I know long ago there used to a silly stereotype that all gay men had lots of personal wealth because they weren't spending money on children & families. And, also it's offensive. I lost a great many friends to the plague. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Maxim Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 The best way to destroy a group of people is to create tension between it's members and pit them against each other. Sadly... these people are falling for the trap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 One of the problems now is many voters don't want solutions. They want suffering. They want other people to hurt and to die, and they think they won't be affected. If they are affected, then they will just blame immigrants, or black people, or trans people, or women - take your pick. That's why Trump is so effective. He spreads chaos and fear. So does the media ecosystem around him. If we have fair elections in 2026, there's a chance Democrats can regain some ground, and maybe win the White House in 2028 as the pattern tends to be Republicans burn everything and Democrats put it back together, but it's going to take a miraculous and visionary candidate to truly make change. And one who cares much less about norms or false assurances of how the public will see sense and believe in goodness, the downfall of Biden and most establishment Democrats. They are, yes. And sadly, many of them prefer Trump to Democrats because of these identity politic grievances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2025/01/19/lady-mcbiden-alexandra-pelosi-first-lady-00199164 I'd say we shouldn't go along with media games and distractions, but Pelosi's daughter chose to say this on the record. I'd only ever heard of Alexandra Pelosi for making TV documentaries, and more recently, due to rumors that Nancy is trying to make sure Alexandra gets her seat in Congress. I can understand that she is deeply distressed right now, seeing her mother breaking a hip after her father was nearly beaten to death, but there was no need for her to be so crass, or to even say anything at all. The Bidens didn't do anything to her mother. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members janea4old Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 (edited) I think it's always been Nancy Pelosi's daughter Christine Pelosi who was active on twitter and spoke up for her mother. https://x.com/sfpelosi Christine wants to be on the DNC, she says so on her website... https://www.christinepelosi.com/ I think Christine's the one that has been said to maybe run for Nancy's seat someday. I never heard of Alexandra before that politico article. Edited January 20 by janea4old 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Maxim Posted January 20 Members Share Posted January 20 Yes, I have the same mind-set. But still there are times where I just get an organic reaction. I can't help it. I am a human being. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
