In 20 years we’re going to find out that “no kink at pride” discourse was a CIA psyop to reintroduce more traditional forms of homophobia (i.e. the defense of the innocence of children, Gays as sexually predative, etc) to millennial and gen z aged influencers.
… Y'all need to get off Tumblr.
I go weeks or months without posting sir. This is offline brain damage.
the us state has a history of injecting poison pill discourses into political movements that threaten its power like this is your brain on actual history.
*discourse calling gay men pedophiles for kink related dressing practices that have been in steep decline at Pride events re-emerges near the same time as QAnon*
“I see nothing suspicious about this.”
the global rise of fascism? a resurgent right wing in america? the roaring presence of reactionary thought in erstwhile progressive spaces? a connection would be inconceivable… internet brain rot, go outside!

Hell, even talk to your queer community elders. They’ll tell you this is a reoccurring thing that happens enough that it’s why so many older people can see the red flags first and warn younger folks of this stuff. I saw similar shit in the late 90s, all through out the 00s, and it was really bad flares ups of it throughout the 10s for obvious reasons. And my older queer friends even mention seeing these same strategies happening in the 80s and back.
So yes, read a book, touch paper, AND talk to your queer elders. Learn this shit to know how to stomp out like we’ve had to each time it’s tried coming back. Bait is planted all the time in a effort to ruin us, don’t take it and consider it when we tell you it is.
