GOP targets drag shows with new bills in at least 14 states

You’ve obviously never been to a pantomime. ‘Oh yes I have’ , is the expected response. To which the audience will respond…. -

The laws being discussed have been passed by ‘rightwing’ legislators. Hence ‘rightwing’. This isn’t only a rightwing culture war game play, it’s also an example of the rightwing accusation of ‘cancel culture’ being what so many rightwing accusations are, a confession. -

It’s pushed into the limelight by the rightwing in their search for culture war battles. Or did you miss that bit? -

The Gender spectrum is part of natural life everywhere. It’s accepted in Thailand, not so by the religious rightwing currently controlling the GOP in the US. -

Is that you backing down from the baseless claims I called you out on? What the NYP claims and what is reality are not necessarily the same thing. Their use of emotionally loaded language is a clue. -

I think it’s perhaps better if you don’t go down the argument of taking kids to gogo bars being an acceptable alternative to you. Oh, too late, you already did. -

And they all have the right not to take their kids to drag shows. It’s the ‘rightwing’ passing these laws to control other people’s choices. Hence ‘rightwingers’. -

It’ll be embarrassing for all those pro-Chinese shills if it isn’t. -

Yep, pure theatre, performed to inflame the serially offended rightwing base. -

I wonder if it’s occurred to these serially offended rightwingers gnashing their tooth over ‘drag shows’ that at the time of his writing, all the female roles in Shakespeare’s plays were performed by men, and boys. Juliet, was played by a young man, the gentle words of a young woman’s love spoken by a man in drag. Kate, a shrew played by a man in drag. And of course, from Hamlet, Queen Gertrude (played by a man in drag) gives us, ‘The lady doth protest too much, me thinks’. (The lady was of course a man in drag). The question needs to be asked, why this obsession with other people’s gender and sexuality, why the constant outrage, why doth the rightwing protest so much? -

Your guess, is once again wrong. An error which completely undermines your second assertion. How about, not making laws to control what parents choose is or is not acceptable for their own children. Nobody is forcing you, or anyone else to go see any drag show. -

Hyperbole and strawman all rolled into one. -

Is this the voice of experience or the voice of blind bigotry? It can only be one or the other. How about letting parents decide what their own children may or may not see and not dictate to other parents what their children may or may not see?! -
"It's got nothing to do with Brexit"!
Chomper Higgot replied to Social Media's topic in UK & Europe Topics and Events
Actually not everything. The Government has seen fit to call a secret meeting to discuss the problems Brexit is causing. Kind of shoots tge ‘It’s not Brexit’ argument in the foot.
