Pride MY ASS! Normal LGB folks have most likely been hiding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the Pride\u2026 Oh hell let\u2019s call it what it really is, the TRANS gestapo is out in force it\u2019s uncomfortable for normal folks to go to a bar, or even to certain towns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a couple of appointments in Palm Springs which I chose to do via Video. I wanted absolutely nothing to do with Palm Springs during \u201cPride\u201d month. A more appropriate name would be humiliation or shame month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Very little  about the behavior of these folks engenders pride in me. One of the things that we must always remember is that the news media will always focus on the most shocking or depraved elements of anything. Pride parades are no different. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That they were so many examples of people mostly naked marching through the streets in front kids and tourists isn\u2019t empowering it\u2019s just filth. There\u2019s no reason to be naked in a parade on a Main Street of any city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are places where that is appropriate and even fun, but it\u2019s in very poor taste in a situation where children may be present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a time when Pride was admittedly edgy. The leather guys could be intimidating but they refrained from simulated or other sex acts in the main parade down Hollywood Blvd.  Generally they kept their damn pants on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which is not to say that questionable  things didn\u2019t happen at all. There were other less commonly known celebrations which were \u201cadult only\u201d and took place in confined areas blocked off from public view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You had to know exactly what you were looking for and exactly where it was and then be sized up by guys whose job was to make sure only \u201cMembers of the Club\u201d were allowed inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those were fun days! God I miss those\u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"355\" src=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12820\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-300x139.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Umm, I digress\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the early Pride events, 1979 being the first one I attended it was about getting together under a rainbow banner where all of us had the same goals in mind. Pride used to be fun, we partied and enjoyed each other\u2019s company. We welcomed our brothers and sisters in law enforcement and thanked them for serving our community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"505\" src=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12822\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-2.jpeg 780w, https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-2-300x194.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Just because we were LGB meant we could be denied rights, (Real Rights\u2026 Right to housing for example. There was a time when you could be evicted by a landlord because you were gay. Right to Jobs, you could be fired if anyone found out you were gay. Right to speak and assemble, the police were still patrolling gay bars looking for any infraction to shut the place down.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pride has become overdone, and a pain in the ass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Trans activists who have taken over Pride, don&#8217;t\u2019 typically have these  battles to fight. (I say typically, because I\u2019m sure there are exceptions,) They\u2019re not going to be kicked out of their apartments, lose their jobs, or be subject to arrest just because they\u2019re Trans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People, the Government, and the Police, take a very dim view of discrimination of any kind these days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The number of Trans, \u201cReal\u201d trans people is vanishingly small. That is a fucking fact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The number of attention whores and insecure  people is a lot greater. It\u2019s these people in my opinion that have made themselves pawns to the likes of the HRC &amp; GLAAD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These organizations shamelessly use these folks to generate funds. They\u2019ll take donations from these people, and other guilt ridden elements of society, (aka the progressive left, aka white liberals who need to virtue signal,) and go to their elite fundraising parties throughout the rest of the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"370\" src=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12821\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-1.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/bone-in-the-throat.com\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/image-1-300x139.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The HRC is no friend of LGB <strong>OR<\/strong> Trans folks today, It hasn\u2019t been a friend to the LGB community for a long damn time. The HRC is trying to hold onto their million dollar salaries. The only way to do that, is by creating and maintaining a victim class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BLM does the same thing, as do hundreds of organizations in this country and across the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How many Trans people did the HRC feed or house last year? How about BLM?  So what \u201c<em>Help<\/em>\u201d exactly do these organizations provide? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The HRC and GLAAD should have disbanded the day after same sex marriage was ruled on. They were done. Mission accomplished! Good job!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Except\u2026 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While they were cleaning out their desks, they realized, \u201cNo more White House dinner invitations, No more hobnobbing with famous actors, No more health insurance,  and finally OMG! We\u2019ll have to be in the unemployment line!\u201d That was the final straw.  I\u2019ll bet they dragged a Real transgender person from the phone bank or mail room, into a conference room and began working on building the next victim class.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s time for the LGB community to stop attending or supporting PRIDE. In recent years there have even been PRIDE celebrations that excluded people based on race. There is no PRIDE in that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s well past time for PRIDE, the HRC, GLAAD, and many other moneymaking schemes built on the LGB community to be swept into the pages of our history. Theres no shame in becoming history instead of making it. Let\u2019s put pictures of these events and organizations right next to steam engines and ACT UP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s time to turn the page of the history book.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>That\u2019s a laugh.
