Such a supremely dumb religion. If you’re ever bored, look into its history and be completely dumbfounded by the fact that people believe this shit in 2023.

    Just another example of cishet people treating our existence as some intellectual chess game on which all sides are merely competing in the marketplace of ideas. Pride is not about my “beliefs about gender, sexuality, and identity”. I’m not writing fucking gender theory papers the entire month (well, I might, but it’s unrelated). It’s about celebrating a history of perseverance in the face of adversity. It’s about resisting the backlash that happens whenever we see even the most timid representation and visibility of queer people. It’s about looking at the current repression of the ability of queer people to access adequate healthcare and tying it to the rich history of resistance and activism that’s occurred over the past 100 years.

      Few groups I hate more. One of my high school friends was LDS, had a brother who came out and was essentially blackballed by his family and the church. Now lives in a different state and is enjoying his best life.

      The thing that irks me about these fucks is that they will always say whatever words signaling acceptance while their actions are the exact opposite. Bunch of cultist freaks repeating canned lines

      People always say they’re so kind, am I kind if I smile while paying someone to stab you?

        Also, any time you try to explain to them why you think they should deconstruct their beliefs a bit, you’re met with a “That’s your opinion.”

        Freaky and weird people
