Disagreeing with Transactivists Is ‘Violence’
Many progressive young people have been convinced by gender ideologists that voicing opposition to radical transactivism is “violence” that must be suppressed.

More on Gay Kids and Medical Transition
Coming to America as well?
Under the new rules, parents who refuse to use the alternative pronouns for their children or refuse to pay for their transitioning could be criminally prosecuted. https://t.co/Zgw1rK7DoV

Defending Gay Kids
More gays and lesbians are catching on:
The New Neo writes: “The message is of body integrity, goodness, and wholeness, about which today’s children probably need a ton of reassurance. Unfortunately, they’re not watching Mr. Rogers anymore.”
Sage advice from James Kirchick:
And Deroy Murdock says “It’s Time For A Big, Fat Gay Divorce From The Alphabet People”:
GLAAD is endangering gay kids:
Censorship is alive and well, @glaad trying to censor opposing opinions about a subject MANY transsexuals disagree with. Medical transition of minors. Censorship usually means you do not have the facts to back up your claims so you try to silence your opposition. Remember @glaad… pic.twitter.com/6VwFSFIvCp

Wrapping Up Pride 2023
Ben Kawaller adds: “If the gay activism I grew up with was about securing equal rights, LGBTQ+ activism looks more like a cultural project aimed at reforming our ideas about gender and sexuality. It also doesn’t seem to be able to help itself from looking absurd.”
Andrew Sullivan makes a similar point:
Below, progressive activists want Republicans to be anti-gay.

HRC’s ‘Emergency’ Declaration
The Human Rights Campaign issues a warning to be afraid…be very afraid:
🚨 Our statement on the @HRC's "state of emergency" PR stunt.
— Log Cabin Republicans (@LogCabinGOP) June 7, 2023
TLDR: The Human Rights Campaign perpetually fear-mongers that the LGBT community is in grave danger in order to gin up donations and justify their existence.
We encourage them to read a history book. pic.twitter.com/eHL8q9qgii
Non-straight Americans have never enjoyed more rights or broad acceptance in our nation’s laws/culture than we do today. To effectively suggest — with a dramatic, first-ever “emergency” declaration — that it’s never been worse (dating back to the early 80s!) is really something. https://t.co/9MOKXiHePv

Via the Washington Times:
>>Mr. Moran said the problem is that HRC has redefined support for LGBTQ rights to include “trans surgeries for minors, biological men competing in women’s sports, and sex and gender identity lessons in kindergarten.”<<
“The HRC’s latest PR stunt is so ignorantly detached from the incredible LGBT progress over the past decade that we’d be shocked if their donors even buy it,” Log Cabin Republicans President Charles Moran told The Washington Times.

The gender ideology narrative is failing to convince the masses, so it’s an “emergency”!
Promoting the medical transitioning of gay kids is the real emergency that gay people should be responding to:

Guy Benson on what we should celebrate:
It’s pride month, which means it’s time for a lot of noise — from corporate posturing to culture warriors’ endless competing grievances (sometimes they have a point, on both “sides”). There are any number of things ‘Pride’ *doesn’t* mean to me — but here’s what it does:
