Pride Month so far: Jonathan Joss is murdered in a disgusting hate crime and the Navy intentionally announces they are changing the name of the USNS HARVEY MILK. America... now more than ever... David Lynch's words ring loudly. "Fix your hearts or die." This cannot be our normal.

That just sickens me. It's especially an insult to the people of San Francisco as well as to LGBTQ+ people and those who love the history of resistance and liberation.

Why are you equating the murder of Johnathan Joss with Pink washing the US war machine? People talk a lot about no cops at pride and that's just as true for this kind of bullshit. Fix your head.

Did he ever endorse or project the kind of messages Jones did? There's a million and one reasons someone can have a book in their possession and idly speculating someone's views based off that instead of what they said and did is pretty asinine.

So? Do you think that negates the vast body of art he left behind? Do you think that ownership of that book means he endorses every word of it? I have TRIUMPH OF THE WILL and BIRTH OF A NATION in my film collection. Now what?

So then why did you bring it up in response to my comment? You have to understand that doing so made it seem oppositional, like you were in some way negating what I said. If you didn't mean that, it's definitely the way it came across.

They were getting homophobic death threats for quite some time beforehand, and notified the police, who did nothing. The bastard put their *dog's skull and harness* in the burned-out house where they'd find it. That what they were breaking down over when he came up and started yelling, then fired.

Paul, aka Saul of Tarsus, was a confessed serial killer of Christians until he had a dream and converted. Then he became a serial killer of gays. His hateful letters are a large part of the Bible.

We do need to fix our hearts. There's a storm on the horizon. It's already dark out. Look at your neighbors. Look at the world news. Look at the science news. We have algae blooms appearing, extending and so toxic it's killing marine life as well as being unusable for crops and drinking. Thats 1

It's gonna be the new normal if this is what we have against it. "Fix your hearts or die" I'm sorry have we seen any of these people die as a consequence of evil action or they do just keep killing people while we tell ourselves the lie that justice is coming?

We've all been begging the US for mercy for centuries, but USians just kept telling us it's a "skill issue" that we keep getting bullied into ruin by their exceptionalism And now, instead of fixing themselves, they've decided to self-victimize when they have the 2nd amendment to save themselves

I love answering USian voters who say "The world is laughing at us" The moment you tell them why we're laughing: blocked It really is just a self-pitty party and none of us are allowed to chime in; they really just want to be the only ones speaking at any given time Uncle Sam forbid

The United States has become a Conservative Theocracy under the P2025-controlled government. The distance between the USA, Saudi Arabia, & Iran narrows each day. The type of religion is less important than the submission of the govt officials and judges ruled by it.

Three cadets who graduated with distinction from the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, CO were denied commissions befitting their ranks and were asked to remove themselves from military services or pay back the tuition. These cadets were all trans. Did I mention "with distinction"?

Well, I do think minors shouldn't be getting nose jobs or breast implants. So they should be investigating that. That's gender affirming care, too, even if it is for cis girls. Goose and gander and all that jazz. We should start reporting those types to the feds.

Never was. It's always been a weird, meaningless concept, some kind of national delusion that in one of the most controlled societies on the planet you have all this freedom. I think Americans may finally be waking up to what the rest of the world has known for a very long time

As a non-American it always irritated me when Americans talked about the US being the bastion of democracy when in reality the Freedom Index places America behind Latvia! The US lags far behind most western countries now in almost all democratic criteria....that has never been truer than now!

We can be angry, but they are not going to care. Unless we fight back they are not ever going to respect us. You can call your rep all you want, but they have sold us out first everytime. Homophobes are first and foremost cowards

It was a Hate crime, it will get worse if we do not demand it to stop NOW. Please call your senators, MPs, and all other governments to demand LGBTQ+ communities be protected under law NOW while saying HELL NO to the Big Bogus Bill. For LGBTQ+ rights are Human Rights ALWAYS!

Sharing because homophobia, transphobia and Queerphobia are EVIL! Call your Senators to stop the Big Ugly Bill because if it passes, it will get worse. Please do so NOW, for the LGBTQIA+ community need all the help they need. #TransRightsAreHumanRights 🏳️‍⚧️ #LoveIsLove 🏳️‍🌈 #SayNoToFascism 🫂

I'm trying to understand why the media isn't interviewing "Gays, Blacks, or Latinos <for Trump>" like they did almost daily before the election. Surely they have some opinions now that would be news worthy no?

Not the Navy, it was Hegseth. And he 100% admitted he waited until now so he could make it coincide with Pride. He's not fit to hold his position, but that's my humble opinion.

Right on! I know a woman who is religious, but said she has many gay friends. But she has a problem seeing them show affection to each other & wonder why they need a parade. I told her she can't talk about gays without her head being in their bedrooms. And many people like her do the same.

Sounds like Pride needs to be massive turn outs. Our Pride events don't live and die on whether they are recognized by this hateful little government. It still happens every year because we've never been intimidated by small minds.

We have to get angry enough to get out of our chairs & take matters into our own hands. Look at what other countries have done-they TOPPLED illegal governments. We have an ineffective Democratic Party and a gqp that’s complicit. That leaves us, as in we the people. If we don’t, it won’t get done.

A lot of this can be summed up as “ America has a manhood issue” Been seeing it most of my 77 years but lately it’s manifesting in some of the stupidest, racist, inhumane ways possible From people supposedly looking after America Quit worrying about “being men” Just be…

And 3 trans gender USAF Cadets who completed the rigorous physical and academic requirements as both men AND women, have been banned from receiving their 2nd Lt. commissions and cannot serve… I have had strong feelings abt some people in my lifetime but until now, I’ve never hated the way I do now.

It looks pretty cataclysmic from the inside, too. There are a whole lot of Americans I don't trust anymore because they all took off their masks to reveal that they are psychopathic monsters.

We have had many different opportunities to choose people over money. The hatred that is spewed gets them more and more of the pie. They are the most jaded addicts of all. Drug addicts ruin families, acquisition addicts ruin whole planets. There will never be enough. We are the majority.

I keep expecting the breaking point to come, and it never does Pretty sure France would be on fire and the streets running red with politician blood if all the horrors going on happened there instead

Nobody with the power to do something will, because they all either benefit from the status quo or fear it. I'm infuriated that our sham of an election wasn't even questioned by democrats. I'm certain they would've found enough to land Trump and company in prison, yet here we are. Makes me sick.

If executive changes 1 ship the funding authority shall not be granted. For any within deployment group Group Alpha Group Beta Group Charlie Group Delta Group Echo Group Foxtrot Group Golf Group Halo Group Insta Group Juliet Group Leo Group Midfield Any changes without Congressional approval.

They started with our trans community like a canary in the mines. Now they're headed back to the mines to see how they can add the rest of the community. They're going to come for marriage they're putting out a weather balloon.

Well hopefully when the regime is gone, they will restore the name to an honorable man like Milk and also rename the bases again. The biggest thing though would be to see Hegseth at a military tribunal and being charged with treason.
