Summary
It's Pride Month, which means it's time to talk about transphobia and the transphobic in the LGBTQ+ community during the month of pride. Gay pride month is a month dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, but some people still haven't gotten the message, so they're doing the last gasp of pride and some members of the LGBT community have just outlined the rules for straight people during what liberals call a sacred liturgical month.

00:01:09.800
I, for one, consider this to be a month dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
1.00
00:01:14.800
Tennessee, at least, considers this to be a month dedicated to the nuclear family.
00:01:19.920
But some people still haven't gotten the message, so they're doing the last gasp of pride.
00:01:25.600
And some members of the LGBT, LMNOP community have just outlined the rules for straight people during what the liberals call a sacred liturgical month.
00:01:39.620
Looking to get that special LGBTQIA plus person in your life a gift this pride season?
1.00
00:01:46.880
it's called leave us the fuck alone call your friends your senators your representatives
0.99
00:01:53.580
write the supreme court let them know that what lgbtqia plus people want this pride month
1.00
00:01:59.440
is to be left the fuck alone don't call me don't come by my house we're done best of all this gift
0.99
00:02:09.320
is free it costs you nothing at all you can just move on with your life while you leave us the
1.00
00:02:15.240
alone. Spread the word. Let the other straights know what we really want this Pride Month is
00:02:20.740
simply to be left the alone. They just want to be left alone. Just leave us alone, bigots. Just
1.00
00:02:28.140
leave us alone. And also redefine marriage from the level of the Supreme Court. And also give up
1.00
00:02:34.400
your bathrooms and let us go into the opposite bathroom. And also give up your sports leagues
0.72
00:02:38.880
and let us have men beat up women in sports. And also let us indoctrinate your kids. And also
1.00
00:02:43.860
let us castrate your kids. And also, and also, and also leave us alone. We definitely want to
1.00
00:02:50.380
just be left alone. We don't want to completely transform society and take up your attention all
00:02:55.280
the time. Just leave us alone. That's why we're making this video. I don't think anyone believes
00:03:05.980
that anymore. Some of us social conservatives were pointing out that the whole leave us alone
00:03:10.140
thing was obviously ridiculous from the start. But I don't even think that chick believes it
0.78
00:03:14.260
anymore. If she just wanted to be left alone, she'd just go do her own thing, right? She wouldn't be
1.00
00:03:18.860
in your algorithm. Next one. If you have a friend or a loved one who just transitioned and you don't
0.99
00:03:23.100
know what the to do to help them. Oh, spare me, spare me, spare me. Here are six things that you
1.00
00:03:29.520
can do to be a better trans ally. One, give them money. Unironically, transitioning is incredibly
00:03:35.820
expensive if you give them money you are helping them out the best way that you can this also
00:03:40.940
looks like buying them food or going shopping with them two talk to them the process of transitioning
00:03:47.100
can be incredibly isolating and lonely just spend time with them talk to them just just hang out
00:03:53.900
three if they're trans feminine teach them how to do makeup teach them how to wear clothes
00:03:58.460
let them know what the is going on the trans masculine teach them how to work out or teach
00:04:03.820
them how to how to dap up i don't know how to do it or use their preferred name and preferred
00:04:10.540
pronouns if you it up don't make a big deal out of it just say sorry and then use the correct ones
00:04:17.180
five speak up for them when they're not around you may notice that most people are genuinely
00:04:22.380
transphobic whether they are trying to or not and saying nothing makes you also a culprit of
00:04:27.660
transphobia especially with the current political climate kind of preying on the downfall of our
00:04:32.380
entire existence speak up or else you're compliant six cook for them transitioning is puberty number
00:04:39.240
two you know what you have to do during puberty uh you guessed it eat a ton of food so what do
00:04:44.480
you have to do cook a ton of food and then they'll be like and then you'll be like i'm a great person
00:04:50.400
also just treat them like a person okay bye i love you okay all right this guy until that the very
00:04:55.140
last part there this guy's at least being way more honest than the first chick who says you know what
00:05:00.760
we really want during Pride Month is nothing. We want nothing from you. Just leave us alone.
0.67
00:05:04.900
This guy says, hey, you know what we actually want during Pride Month is everything. You need
00:05:08.360
to focus on us all the time and give us everything and give us your money.
00:05:13.440
Give me money. Give me money. Give me money. Give me money. Give me money.
00:05:15.940
At least he's being honest. Give us your money, which they're demanding in this case, literally
00:05:20.920
like in a very direct way, but always are demanding in the sense that all the rules and
00:05:26.160
accommodations and new laws that they want to pass. Those do require your taxpayer money. So
00:05:31.400
they're always demanding that. But in this case, he's just making it totally direct. And then,
00:05:36.160
you know, cook for us and then lie for us by calling us the wrong pronouns and then
00:05:40.300
promote our propaganda even when we're not around and give us your food and give us everything.
00:05:44.580
So he's being direct about it. Then at the end, he said, treat us like a person. But he doesn't
00:05:48.500
really mean that. I'm a person. I have to have a life. Because they're not asking to be treated
00:05:54.460
treated like normal people. They're asking to be treated in a totally special category in a way
00:05:58.700
that is contrary to how you would treat normal people. You wouldn't just go up to a guy on the
00:06:01.300
street and give him all your money and give him all your food and lie on his behalf and all the
00:06:04.700
rest. The one thing he says here, though, that is kind of sad and I think is actually good advice
00:06:09.320
is talk to them. You should talk to them. And that's true. But when you talk to him, you shouldn't
00:06:13.820
lie. And what he's really saying is talk to us and lie and affirm our delusions. But the request
00:06:20.740
he makes that is good is he says talk to us and you should it's a good idea actually during during
00:06:25.200
pride month if you have to address this at all you should talk to people and just tell them the
00:06:29.440
truth and tell them you know it's not not great hey no judgment all god's children it's fine i was
00:06:36.080
gay once and you know it's not the center of your life like this guy wants it to be but in as much
00:06:41.320
as you have to deal with the issues you should tell them the truth that it's no no bueno and
0.89
00:06:45.380
they should knock it off next one be a good straight person in a gay bar if you're with a
1.00
00:07:18.540
It began on the early mornings of June 28th, 1969.
00:07:35.500
And all the pride propaganda, which has been going on, what, for basically my entire life.
00:07:43.600
It just comes down to just give me your money.
0.99
00:07:45.420
The black activists during BLM started to do that.
0.74
00:07:48.140
They tried to, in the early days of that kind of activism, they tried to make it not about
00:07:51.980
just a shakedown. It always kind of was a shakedown, mow mowing the flat catchers,
00:07:56.900
you know, and that sort of thing. But they made it really direct. Just give us your money. Here's
00:08:00.340
my cash app. Here's my PayPal. Here's my Venmo. Give me your money. But now the gays are doing
00:08:04.400
it too. That's interesting. I like this setup because the setup says, here's how you should
0.98
00:08:08.720
act when you go into a gay bar during pride month. That's a really, they're kind of slipping
1.00
00:08:13.060
in that premise there because what you could just do is don't go to gay bars. They mentioned
00:08:16.920
Stonewall, which was this gay bar where the gay rights movement supposedly began. And Stonewall
00:08:22.000
was a mafia bar where they did all sorts of creepy stuff and it was totally unsafe and failed
00:08:26.260
health inspections. And it was really just a den of depravity that the cops were right to shut down.
00:08:32.420
And if only they had succeeded, we would have been spared a lot of nonsense. But you know what
00:08:35.420
you could just do is just not, don't go to gay bars and you don't have to worry about any of
0.96
00:08:39.800
that stuff and you don't have to give them your money. Okay, next one. Here is a way to be a better
0.58
00:08:44.080
ally. Visibly show, maybe something on your bag or your clothing, that you are a safe space for
00:08:49.400
our community. Maybe something like a rainbow Mickey. If you attach it, it lets our community
00:08:55.240
know that you are a safe space. I'm a person. I'm not a space. A lot of the LGBT activism
00:09:03.920
reduces people down to just flesh, down to just sacks of meat, and reduces human beings down to
0.96
00:09:09.200
their worst inclinations or whatever. But you're not. You're not a space. You're a person. And you
00:09:13.780
don't have to wear a totem to affirm your membership in a cult or a pseudo-religion
00:09:19.940
that you're not part of. This is like that old Seinfeld episode where they say, wear the ribbon.
00:09:25.080
Actually, and that was about gay stuff. It was about solidarity with AIDS or whatever. But they
00:09:28.780
said like, you have to wear the ribbon, wear the ribbon, wear the pride flag. Who do you think you
00:09:32.200
are? Put the ribbon on. Hey, Cedric, Bob, this guy won't wear a ribbon. Who? Who doesn't want
00:09:40.380
to wear the ribbon. But that's over. That seems over to me. We reached the peak of that in 2023
00:09:45.800
and then it went downhill. And I think it went downhill because of the 2024 election where
00:09:50.020
Republicans specifically ran against all the LGBT stuff and won and won the popular vote for the
0.98
00:09:55.340
first time in 20 years and won a unified government and won so many races. I think that's over. I
0.98
00:09:59.520
don't think we have to wear the ribbon or the little totem on our bags or persons anymore.
00:10:04.140
Next one. You're straight and want to attempt pride? Nope. Here's what not to do. In Berlin,
00:10:08.040
you'll see people wearing extravagant outfits and a lot of nudity. People dress for their self
00:10:12.180
expression, not for your entertainment. If you want to take a picture, just ask. Pride is for
00:10:16.380
queer people. You're a guest at our party. Be respectful of that and let your queer friends
1.00
00:10:21.340
shine. It's their day. Don't forget that pride is still a protest. Make sure you understand the
00:10:26.140
true meaning and history of this special day. What's pride like where you live? Pride is a
00:10:30.960
protest of normal behavior. What is it protesting? What is it? All these displays. You have people
00:10:37.740
sometimes wear these weird costumes and you shouldn't. And this is our event, but you should
00:10:41.920
come, but only to support us. But don't support us the way you think you should support us. And
00:10:46.140
you should just give them money. So, okay. Yeah. I guess you shouldn't show up and you definitely
00:10:51.020
shouldn't dress up like some of the wackos that do the pride events, but really we just shouldn't
1.00
00:10:55.420
have the pride events. You shouldn't have it. If the pride events are a protest of normality,
1.00
00:11:00.560
then we obviously shouldn't have them because we should be normal. And if the, if the pride
0.83
00:11:04.220
events intrinsically involve all sorts of weird sex getups, then those should not be on Main
00:11:08.660
Street. And so we just shouldn't have them. And if you don't want normal people to show up to them,
00:11:12.760
then we definitely shouldn't have them, right? That's a pretty good argument to just shut the
00:11:17.180
whole thing down, which I think we're on the brink of doing anyway. You're fucking insane.
1.00
00:11:21.900
And you're fucking winning. Three ways you can support your queer friends. Number one,
1.00
00:11:27.060
be an active listener. There's a lot going on in the world right now, and a lot of us just want
00:11:30.960
be heard number two stay informed on lgbtq plus issues when you stay informed you'll be able to
00:11:36.240
have a proper conversation to give honest feedback along with advocate for your friend number three
00:11:41.040
create a safe space this means being respectful of everyone's identities and group settings and
00:11:45.840
correcting anyone who does not know how to use proper pronouns using gender neutral language
00:11:50.560
is key this helps people avoid assumptions if you found this helpful follow for more
00:11:55.120
Wow. What's so amazing about that video is it just feels so dated. It feels so old. It feels
00:12:03.120
like the sort of thing that millennials were complaining about boomers doing, which is just
00:12:07.060
rehashing all the old slogans of their hippie youth imagined or experienced. And we just say,
00:12:14.020
yeah, okay, boomer. That's what the millennials used to say. But now the millennials are the
00:12:16.900
boomers. The gay millennials are the hippie boomers now. And it all just feels sort of old
0.99
00:12:23.800
and tired. Even, even reacting to this stuff, it feels kind of old, doesn't it? It feels kind of
00:12:29.900
passe. I can't muster outrage here. I mostly just feel pity reacting to these people because it's
00:12:36.220
over. I mean, we still have to call attention to it in the sense that some corporations are still
00:12:41.640
pushing this stuff. Some celebrities, J-Lo has her stupid pride video. The MLB, I'm sorry to say,
1.00
00:12:46.740
the most straight sports league is still leaning into gays. Even the New York Yankees drives me
0.99
00:12:52.720
crazy. It drives me nuts. I mean, we're not the Mets guys. We don't have to do that. But leave
00:12:57.040
the gay stuff for the NFL or whatever. But so they're still pushing it. Woke isn't dead in the
1.00
00:13:01.960
sense that they're just waiting to come back. They're waiting for their next opportunity after
00:13:06.620
they got pummeled in 2024. But it just feels so passe. You know, this is what a lot of us were
00:13:11.900
calling for a long time. They said, look, this is really awful. And there are tons of bad things
00:13:16.300
going on. And like girls are getting concussions in sports because big guys are beating them up
00:13:24.700
is that reality will reassert itself in the end.
00:13:45.840
And I think we've reached that tipping point now.
0.95
00:13:50.120
but it's it's definitely not cool it's not not hip to the jive you know okay next one hello my
00:13:56.280
people here are things that give but what about straight pride month the same energy you'll get
00:14:01.340
it you'll get it once you see the things i'm about a list you'll understand you'll get it
00:14:04.820
wearing these running shoes with a normal outfit however this doesn't apply if you're like the
00:14:09.940
weird kid that like talks to bugs at recess and you wear these with a normal outfit because you're
0.93
00:14:14.320
probably going to be like really queer when you're older. So I have no idea what this woman's even
1.00
00:14:21.200
talking about. This woman is so in her own head. So in like niche subcultures of subcultures of
1.00
00:14:26.660
ironies of subcultures, I don't even get what she's trying to say. Let me see if I can,
00:14:31.700
if I can figure it out. Nothing against the actors, especially, you know, he was in red,
00:14:36.080
white and royal blue. We love him, but just like in general, this, this genre of Netflix movie
00:14:42.400
gives straight pride to me. And I don't even need to explain it. You get it. Okay. Not only
00:14:48.100
hating cats, but like every time you see a cat, feeling the need to tell people that you don't
00:14:53.140
like cats, like why you hate something that brings other people joy. Are cats specifically
00:14:58.700
an LGBT thing specifically for LGBT girls with crazy colored hair? Cause that is the greatest
1.00
00:15:07.300
vindication of the Salem witch trials I can imagine like in the in the old folklore of the
0.93
00:15:12.720
witches the witches had familiars which were cats so cats were sort of symbols of witches or the
00:15:19.500
demonic or the occult and I don't I don't really like cats because they drive women crazy and
00:15:25.480
they're what I don't but I don't hate cats or anything but that if this woman is claiming that
0.62
00:15:30.820
No, a big part of the LGBT-ism is really liking cats, having a disordered affection for cats.
0.52
00:15:39.620
A lot of things are starting to make sense again to me.
0.97
00:15:43.320
When I was in the closet, I was like, I don't get along with cats.
00:15:46.720
That was me trying to act straight because gay people understand animals with boundaries.
0.99
00:15:52.800
I mean, him in general, but also just like seeing a photo of a man like this and thinking it's hot.
1.00
00:16:05.400
Men that have a Fender Stratocaster in their room
1.00
00:16:09.020
but post videos of themselves doing it anyways.
0.99
00:16:19.280
It is assumed that you should be good at electric guitar
1.00
00:16:26.120
Buying a sign that looks like this unironically.
00:16:29.040
Like, this font in general, this, like, type of painted.
00:16:35.980
The bougie, suburban, live, laugh, love kinds of signs, yes, they are bougie and suburban and womanly.
00:16:44.000
You know, it's, like, 42-year-old suburban women love those signs.
0.96
00:16:48.580
But that is also why gays love that kind of aesthetic, too, which is a little bit kitsch and a little saccharine and sentimental.
1.00
00:16:58.640
look, I'm from New York. I went to a very gay university. I lived in Los Angeles. I know for
0.97
00:17:02.840
a fact, are you, you're telling me gays don't like kitsch? Are you kidding me? What are you
1.00
00:17:07.640
talking? Do you, I, this woman knows nothing about the gay aesthetic. Keep going.
0.99
00:17:12.040
This like type of painted wood that's supposed to look rustic, straight pride, straight pride.
00:17:17.860
Oh, no, hold on. Now I get it. Fair enough. No, no. She's saying if you buy the kitsch signs,
00:17:23.420
the live, laugh, love kind of stuff, which is intended for straight suburban women of a certain
00:17:29.720
age. But then you put them up, but not in the way that the gays put them up, which is in a kind of
1.00
00:17:35.220
ironic, campy way. If you just put them up earnestly, that is very straight. The signs were
1.00
00:17:44.160
made for straight middle-aged women. So if you're a straight middle-aged woman using them, that's
1.00
00:17:51.380
straight, but really they should only be used ironically by gays, which is, which is gay.
0.91
00:17:59.720
I get a lot of this stuff. Like I can understand it intellectually. I see where it's coming from.
0.97
00:18:04.740
I can critique it. Whoa, there's a lot of brainpower in this room. We got Michael and
00:18:10.200
Oscar, the two smartest guys in the office. But this is, I'm having a American psycho moment.
00:18:15.600
I'm having a Patrick Bateman moment where when Bateman goes up to the homeless guy, you and I have nothing in common.
0.91
00:18:27.360
But I'm just saying I'm having one of these moments of I actually don't really have any common cultural touch points with this woman.
1.00
00:18:39.480
i don't even i don't even know how to engage with it in a way that is sardonic or critical or i just
0.96
00:18:47.820
don't even i don't even get it i'm at a loss the lesson has failed on me i will i will persevere
00:18:57.960
through pride as i always have i've learned no lessons i've not been transformed in any way
