Hetero awesome fest

looks inside

Closeted gay men

That whole article is infuriating... WHAT WAS THE SONG!!

but seriously, this article paints such a sad sad picture for them

The festival, which drew roughly 30 to 50 people at any given time on both Friday and Saturday (at a park...in the state capitol.... it was just people wandering around wondering wtf was going on lol)

"He sang a song with lyrics that go against our values," Fitzpatrick said... "This is yet another example of lies and deceptions from the Pride community. That’s what they are: liars and deceivers. They do it to victimize children. It’s pathetic and evil."

like, ffs. That was such an insane comment to make after someone sings a song you don't like, but then you find out the rest of his "events"

various events, including "Beers for Breeders" gatherings, Conspiracy Theory Trivia Night, where patrons can win an AR-15 rifle, Christian singles events, Bible study sessions, and gatherings for flat-earthers.

Heteros cant be pro lgbtq+ now?

Should rename it to bigot festival. Cant call it hetero with all the closest gays it attracts.

This has big "why can't I also have a cake and gifts" energy.

"Dozens"

LOL

so its an event for closeted gay men, to be proud of their facade, and network/hook up with other closeted gay men. who, like them, likely have just as much to lose if they got caught. so they know to keep it on the DL.

i wonder how much cum was swapped at this event from one dude to another. i know it aint zero. im gonna guess at least one full gatorade bottle.

YOU.

I WANT TO TAKE YOU TO A GAY BAR.

He also said he received death threats for his views about what he called the "overt sexuality" he sees in Pride events and people who identify as LGBTQ+.

The Old State Saloon has hosted various events, including "Beers for Breeders" gatherings.

My how the turn tables.

This reminds me of a straight pride event titled "Hetero Pride" that was organized in Finland way back in 2013. One of the organizers was a deputy regional councillor and Finns Party member. He claimed how society and the media over-emphasized homosexuality, calling it "homozation". He also claimed how it was hard to defend the traditional family model without being labelled homophobic and racist.

The event was held near the Parliament House in Helsinki. There were whole a lot more counter-protesters and some came to the event mainly because it was more like "popcorn pride". One of the speakers at the event literally said in his speech how "we don't have anything against homosexuals, but..." and another said something about how "the Bible states that marriage is only between a man and a woman". One speaker was later asked about "what privileges do gays have these days", and he just replied "I have to be honest, I can't say anything about that".

"The tiger can't change its stripes." The organizer mentioned later posed in a picture with five other men who made a Nazi salute – one of them was Seppo Lehto, an infamous Neo-Nazi. He also made a Nazi salute himself in another picture, this time wearing a Hitler mask. When called out, he said "I'm not in that picture. I wasn't there. I don't know where these kinds of clips came from." He later admitted being in the picture, claiming how he hadn't made a Nazi salute: "It's just a normal salute with the left hand. The official Nazi salute is with the right hand at a 45 degree angle."

The explanation wasn't enough for the Finns Party, and as a consequence he was fired from the party's regional council because of homophobia. Later he also resigned from the party.

Dozens lol

Why are they trying so hard?

Can someone check if the active number of hinge users went up during this event?

I walked through that not realizing what it was. I saw a bunch of kids bouncy houses and there was some terrible country music on a stage. Friends and i were like what is this pitiful conservative day in the park bs and kept walking. We didn’t notice any anti pride stuff but just the vibe was pitiful maga people with vendor tents but i didn’t even see a maga flag either. We were just passing through boise for the first time and got beers nearby. Then a friend saw it on front page of Reddit after we left Boise and we were like holy shit that’s what it was

Why the hell does the link just redirect me to their YouTube channel?

Edit: Seems to do that only with EU countries, other countries' IPs work. Probably don't want to deal with privacy protection.

This is the hardest not the onion thing I have ever seen.

The title of the festival. 🤣🤣🤣 I'm fucking dying here. Holy shit.

I spent a summer once in Idaho in my early youth. Hard to describe anything there in terms of "awesome" unless it's beer gut.

I'm a cis white male, but I'll suck some dick to protest this bullshit.

I wonder what song it was

Closeted Bro Convention

This sounds like, in the best case, it’d be like one of those Christian alternative-rock festivals, organised to demonstrate that you don’t need the Devil’s music to have fun, where you have bands playing watered-down, Jesused-up versions of punk/emo/metal and some dad in Vans and a studded belt taking the mike between bands to tell everyone that the raddest thing is to obey your parents and abstain from drugs and premarital sex.

A more likely scenario, though, would involve this being to some extent an anti-wokeness hate rally, with conspiracy theories about how the foundations of Western Civilisation are under threat from the gays and communists and, of course, (((those people))).

Well now I want to know what the song was.

That's the beauty of the gaycation
