It is a sad day today. A day that many young people will remember as the day that their government began a campaign to systemically erase them from any conversation and to pretend that they exist, which in turn will help legitimatize bullying and hatred that so many people like a girly-mate who now essentially has carte blanche on my Twitter, which was such a great decision because so much of what she posts is great. I remember when we were in high school together, in a state that is just as red as Florida. A friend described it as “Texas, but with snow.”
Growing up, which got so much hatred and bullying from people who only saw her as “that dyke.” It was disgusting and dehumanizing, and it made me very glad that she was a part of my inner circle. Because I gave her protection she wouldn’t have had, because I’m a titan who stands just under 7ft tall. NOBODY fucks with me. After she got outed when she was busted kissing another girl, it was pretty much open season and on her and man, the bullying tactics were disgusting.
So imagine my surprise when a man who is almost at Ben Shapiro levels of being a piece of shit, Gov. Ron deSantis, signs into Florida law the “Parental Rights in Education” bill, aka, the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. This bill, broken down, forbids teachers to have any acknowledgment of LGBTQ relationships or teach that a child can be whatever they want to be and love whoever they want to love, It has provisions that require schools to out LGBTQ students to their parents without their consent. This is even more prevalent to me because after my girly-mate got outed as gay, it quickly got to her parents, and her father kicked her out and disowned her. Said she would never be allowed back home “as a dyke.” Thankfully, that story had a happy ending. Her and her mother were very close, and her mother was disgusted by what her father had done, and so they ended up getting divorced and the two moved down to Arizona. I missed my friend when she left, but was glad that she got to spend so many nice years with a mother who cared and was not going to let Catholicism get in the way of her relationship with her daughter.
Piece of shit deSantis has stood defiant of this bill, saying that he doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. He stands by this. Disney has said that they oppose this, but since they endorse a number of Republican government officials in that state, I guess they don’t oppose it that hard. More of that passive progressivism that has become so popular with that company. Can’t wait for their next “first X character” who is LGBTQ for two seconds so they can edit it out for China and the Middle East, so as to placate more bigots and not have to lose out on their cheddar.
I am an absolute defender of free speech. I have taken tons of shit when I am defending the rights of people to say what they want, even if I find their opinions abhorrent. And sure enough, if deSantis wants to speak his disgusting, bigoted opinions, I am fully in support of his right to be that kind of person and say whatever horrible thing he wants to say. Nothing good or kind or decent has ever come out of the mouth of that waste of skin. However, this bill absolutely spits in the face of freedom of speech and makes it so that the government is allowed to force people to marginalize a community. Why? Because the bigotry of this man and those who think like him takes precedence over them. Because LGBTQ people are just living in sin, right?
If you actually think that way and are subscribed to me, please unsubscribe. Please go anywhere else and go into your little echo chamber. I don’t want you as an audience member. I don’t ban people, but I would much prefer you go read something that feeds the confirmation bias of your bigoted opinions.
To all the teachers who disagree with this reprehension, and especially the LGBTQ students down in Florida, my heart absolutely goes out to you right now. I know some of you must be feeling very alone. In my mind, it’s long-past time for civil disobedience. Don’t say gay? Say gay! Say it loud and proud! Say it even louder than ever before! Drown Piece of Shit Gov. deSantis in Pride paraphernalia. Mail endless Pride fliers to his office. Cover his car in them. Every campaign office that exists for this cocksucker, send glitter bombs (envelopes filled with glitter, not actual explosives. Feel I have to clarify that, since this worthless sack of shit is an elected official) to the offices of every person who is in support of this. For the teachers brave enough to risk your careers, stand by the LGBTQ students. They need the support now more than ever.
And if you are a person who actually agrees with this disgusting bill, I have no words for you. There is nothing I can say outside of – I’m sure you sleep well at night, because you are a hateful person who only cares about yourself and your precious beliefs in your bullshit deity who doesn’t exist, but in your heart of hearts, I hope you recognize that this bill doesn’t do anything good. It helps spread hate.
