I remember when I was around 13-15, I said something like: "I don't mind gay people, just as long that they stay away from me". At the time I didn't know anyone who was gay. Then I hit 16 and started to get to know people who were part of the lgbtq community. I realised how horrible my previous opinions were and changed my mind. Happy Pride Month everyone!
In defense of you, and all our younger selves, that's not an uncommon phase to go through before your brain fully develops. What matters is that you learned that it's impossible to judge an entire group based on the actions of a handful. The world needs more people who can do that.
@@Thisisnotafrog Careful, now...if you go around judging people exclusively by their ACTIONS, that could mean the END of hate crime prosecutions...And that would NEVER do...
@@tgriffin3059 I know right? We can't have a world people actually feel safe and enjoy living in now can we? Good thing we can justify all our wrongdoings.... I mean "acts of charity" by claiming it was all to "protect the children" instead.
Imagine being straight and anytime you hear something gay you think of our sex lives, I can count on 0 hands how often I worry about other adults sex lives
You can't see it? You people identify as your sexuality when other people identify as who they are. Like I identify as a lumberjack because that is my profession. It's always about sex with you people. Why does a man have to dress in drag to read to children? These drag queens are just sexualized clowns. You can't see it but we can because we are normal. Don't respond, just let that soak in overnight.
It works like this: Premise 1: I am part of the silent majority of NORMAL people Premise 2: Capitalism, when working as intended, should market to the NORMAL majority Premise 3: Capitalism is currently marketing to the ABNORMAL gay minority Conclusion: A shadowy cabal is currently subverting capitalism to spread the woke/gay agenda/cultural marxism/currently-favourite buzzword. Did I mention I'm NORMAL you freaks???
Imagine being upset by something that has existed for over 50 years, has been recognized by the government for almost 30 years, that you were never forced to attend, and that never impacted you in any meaningful way until you decided to be upset by it.
If sex is the first thing you think of when thinking about gays, pride month, and queer people overall…that’s a reflection of YOUR character and YOUR priorities, not the people you try to demonize.
@@RonJeremy514Wait until you find out that the LGBTQ+ community literally includes asexual and aromatic people. Wait until you find out that there are people who are queer because of their gender expression/identity and not because of their sexuality (such as trans and nonbinary people). Don’t make ignorant statements about a community you barely know anything about.
There's one response to anti-pride reactions I absolutely loved. On Reddit, r/prequelmemes made their icon rainbow for Pride. In response to the inevitable homophobia and transphobia they received, they decided to make the rainbow logo permanent. It's been years and the rainbow has never left the subreddit. That's how you respond to hate; make the bigots look at it or leave
Over here in spokane we have had multiple pride side walks vandalized like that, bow there are cameras and people have been charged with hate crimes as a result.
@@thegreatergood8081 you are simply too stupid to realize that we can address multiple crimes that happen. It is still vandalism and it is motivated by irrational hatred to invoke fear in a marginalized group, so hate crime!
@@thegreatergood8081 actual crimes like continuing the suffering of already marginalized people by vandilizing our only source of mild acceptance??????
33:35 I grew up around nudists. I know for a fact I was safer surrounded by the "flopping" than the small, Christian town we moved to. I know this because when we left the old community-- where I'd never had any problems-- for the new, I was stalked and attacked by a pedophile and the police ignored the entire thing (despite the attacker having a 30+ year record of molesting children, I later found out). Communities like Lauren's don't give a shit about real crime, they just want to point fingers at scapegoats.
Yeah, it’s becoming clearer by the day that so many conservatives actually don’t have an issue with what Muslim extremists preach. The only issue they have is that it’s the “wrong” religion.
@@tgriffin3059no not true at all sorry you’ve been lied to. We can talk about the Jefferson letters and the Jefferson Bible if you want. Also who gives a shit about what they believed ? They also had slaves
@@trappedinamerica7740 The people who discovered, settled, founded, and built this place were overwhelmingly Christian. You don't have to take my word for this....in fact, your own common sense should be enough to tell the story...where did they come from? Mostly Europe....which was almost EXCLUSIVELY Christian....And these were not like today's Christians, who grovel and apologize for it...The single greatest cultural influence in the history of the West is Christianity...and rightfully so. As for slavery...historically, slavery has been a universal phenomenon. We may not have been better, but we were certainly no worse...
@@tgriffin3059 And they wrote this thing you might have heard of called The First Amendment that says laws cannot be made based on religion. So even if you're right, Christianity still doesn't get to dictate what is and isn't legal.
@@TheFinalFanboy Freedom of Religion means we ALL get to practice our faith....and that means not only the minority and the fringes, but the majority. That's US. True Freedom means you'll always be keenly aware of who the majority is. Nothing in the Constitution guarantees any pacification of the minority. The minority may just FEEL like the minority.
I hate how many people want us to 'keep pride safe for kids' and have been screaming at us like we're a bunch of degenerates. I was told that older LGBTQ+ people like me (early 30s) aren't who pride is for, and it's entirely meant for LGBTQ+ kids. First of all; no, and second of all; I grew up at a time when we didn't have any support. Pride is for us. You don't hear people scream about how Mardi Gras or Saint Patrick's Day stuff needs to be safe for kids.
There are also age appropriate Pride events held at different times and places. The parades during the day are for all ages. The late night parties are for mature crowds. Regardless, kids would still be safer at Pride than they would be at church.
I want Pride to be safe and comfortable for kids, but for me, that means not subjecting them to harassment, violence, overt sex acts, or directly-in-your-face nudity; it does not mean "protecting" them from people in drag, fursuits, pup masks, bodices, or collars.
The "save the children" garbage has always happened when in reality nobody is at any harm and it doesn't matter if "kids" see any of it. Their brains won't explode
Gotta love how when we're talking about straight relationships the focus on two people getting closer together, sharing special moments, their feelings deepen as they become more intimate and then finally the man proposes, they get married and start a family. When we're talking about LGBT relationships, to people like Lauren Chen, it's just "Gay Sex". Which, frankly, is a perfect demonstration about why PRIDE will continue.
When I was a kid in the '80s and '90s the vacation spots & tourist traps & carnivals & malls had merchandise that were sex jokes & bikini babe posters. Sexuality was not supremely taboo like these very online right wingers imagine the world was or should be.
It's literally just a double standard for sexuality. Only queer sexuality is inherently dangerous to children. It's why homophobic bible-thumping communities are a sanctuary for pedophiles, and coincidentally the same environments where sex is treated as ultra taboo and kids are assumed to not have any sexuality of their own that needs to be explained to them. Ignorance is bliss for predators.
“Force fed the rainbow agenda….” I would love a cutaway to the scene from 2014 Godzilla of him holding the monster and blasting atomic breath down its throat. But it’s Lauren Chen.
I’m going to pride this weekend, and it makes me happy to know that me as a blue haired, tattooed lesbian going to an event with my friend makes these people angry
i've been seeing topless women at swimming pools and naked people on beaches since i was a little kid.. what's so wrong with naked people just walking somewhere?
If people are taking their kids to these events, they must be okay with their kids seeing this stuff. Isn't Lauren and company ally about "parental rights?"
True story, the "muh parental rights" people tend to blue-screen when you point out exactly this, because they either don't truly believe in parental rights but know they can't admit it, or they genuinely haven't thought through their "parental rights" stance, and don't realize that parents with the opposing worldview feel as strongly about their values and parenting philosophy as they do.
Whether polyamory is a part of pride is an interesting question. I mean, a lot of LGBTQIA+ people are poly, so in that sense, yes. I don't think being poly alone necessarily makes you part of the LGBTQIA+ movement. However, as both groups tend to challenge cisheteronormative patriarchal relationships, I think the two groups make great allies to one another.
I'd say that being polyamorous isn't *technically* the same as having a sexual or gender orientation, but poly people still face discrimination and hostility from the mainstream society. Certain cishet poly people arguably jerking themselves off a bit too much for being special snowflakes is small taters compared to the grave external threat we all face at the hands of fundies and fascists, so it behooves us to all stick together.
She's one of the worst people. The fact that I first heard of her doing an interview with Richard Spencer as a way to whitewash him says so much about her.
You'd think that with the right's overall view of sex they'd be on board with ace folks, they think sex is obscene so people who have 0 desire for sex should be a-ok to conservatives. It's weird how conservatives don't like sex yet also don't like it when other people are disinterested in sex. Is it a procreation thing, their obsession with having babies?
Yes. I wouldn't be surprised if that's why they look the other way when men fool around and when it comes to 'youthful loving'. If it ends in a baby that they can force Christianity on, it strengthens their cult.
It's about enforcing patriarchy first and foremost. An asexual woman is a woman who won't submit to the sexual desires of men, and an asexual man contradicts the idea that men are not sex-crazed werebeasts who are unaccountable in the presence of a woman. Both are scary to people who really want men to be unaccountable and women to have no agency.
They've really shown their ass lately. They are not actually against sex. They are against all non-christian, non-missionary-within-marriage non-heterosexuality. And even that is very flexible as long as it's not gay, unless your partner is underage. The likes of MAP walsh have certainly proven they have no problem with pedophilia in reality. It's not about hating sex or protecting children. It's about control. White christian dominance. It's the modern Spanish Inquisition.
The... "meme"? At the beginning seemed to depict the "woke companies" or whatever as "bashing people in the face with pride" or whatever but if I'm reading this right, that makes the right Bowser. They can't avoid making themselves the villain in their own meme.
Only a minute into this video and all I can think about hers is "you queerphobes leave the Mario Bros outta this!! >:C " Mario and Luigi would be hella supportive at the _very_ least (not only is Mario specifically listed as being "tolerant" in an old character direction list and it's not hard to believe Luigi is much the same, Mario has canonically gotten a smoochy from two trans women, at least within the Paper Mario continuity), and there's some evidence in a few of the RPGs to imply that Luigi himself is queer to some extent (if his shy-but-not-entirely-unreceptive reaction to Peasley's flirtations in Superstar Saga isn't anything, his willingness to wear fancey dresses in that and his side-story in Paper Mario TTYD may be too, even if it is just "cis guy crossdressing with no personal issue whatsoever"). Also? Mario can wear Peach's wedding dress in Odyssey. And the only issue I can see is one that thankfully no one in-game cares about, ie. he's Too Short and that thang's basically tailored (and I mean in terms of texturing, not like they actually sewed it for reals irl and scanned that into their computers to put onto the model) for Peach's proportions and just like...Mesh Shrunk or whatever term proper CG model makers use to fit our boy. Everyone who comments on it seems to think he rocks it, meanwhile I'm just like "you are a short plumber running around in your tall sorta-kinda-gf's dress You Are Going To Trip And Fall Flat On Your Face if not for Nintendo thankfully not making the optional outfits effect the movement controls" XD
29:22 notice how she's barely containing laughter while explaining what she says is a grave threat to the safety of your children. Almost like she's completely insincere.
I very much appreciate the amount you are using Heterosexual instead of "Straight". The Straight term has so much gross implications on the non-Straight, I hate it. Thank you Jake
It isn't. And I say this as a poly person. Many lgbtq+ people are poly but its not related to sexuality or gender identity. It's just a relationship preference.
@@spyfire242 it's a romantic orientation, if things like aromatic are a part of pride then there is no reason to gatekeep other romantic orientations, also many poly people feel the need to hide who they love out of fear of judgement and harassment, poly people have no reason not to be a part of pride It's nice to see vendors starting to have poly merch so poly people can celebrate their pride and not feel the need to hide their love
@@spyfire242 it is an orientation though, someone is or is not poly, you can "choose" to seek out various relationships in the same way a bi person "chooses" to seek out a relationship with a man or a woman, but regardless of who they are with they still experience sexual attraction to people of other genders If you are in a relationship and you don't crave other romantic relationships and "only have eyes for your partner" then you ARE monog not "choosing to be monog" If you are in a relationship but you still experience romantic attractions to other people you aren't "choosing" to feel that way you feel that way because you ARE poly, and "choosing" to remain monog is just you stifling your true self, it isn't wrong to develop romantic feelings for people who aren't your partner Also ask an anti-queer bigot how they feel about poly people and you will get the same answer as any other flavor of queer Personally I'm bi and poly and I have gotten much more harassment for being poly and feel much more compelled to hide that about myself in certain public spaces
@@dimanthehedghog I fundamentally disagree with everything you said. monogamy and polyamory are not intrinsic qualities of a person they are choices. Someone can be poly then later change to be mono and vic versa. And as I already stated, discrimination is not a qualifier or point in your favor. Depending on where you live being an atheist will also get you harassment and ire, but atheists are not part of the LGBTQ+ umbrella.
I think it would be an incredibly funny meme to ask Blaire White if she's Lauren Chen and ask Lauren Chen if she's Blaire White, or to start suggesting that they're the same person, because I know they'd both hate that.
@30:10 everything the lady in the interview says and Lauren says after it is exactly what their brand of religion does. Yeah, to those religious ideologies, movements, organisations etc.: leave the children alone. Don't poison their minds with your cruel and callous judgement and regard for others. Don't poison their minds with your small-minded fear and hatred.
You know Lauren, we could tone down all the evil pride stuff if you'd just tone down all the discrimination of people you don't like. Has she seen what The Straights put on toddler's clothes?
It is a pride color icon, the banner is also for pride, they announced it almost 2 weeks before Lauren Chen's video came out alongside a collaboration with the Trevor Project. Shocking no one the conservatives are lying.
The last time a talking head said they want sharia law they where slammed with videos of what that was, it's time for Loren Chen to get the same treatment me thinks
It’s all about the grift, yell and scream about them “gay people” ruining everything to make a buck.. pathetic to be sure but expected under capitalism.
do you know anything about Buddhism? You know you can be secular/agnostic/atheist and still believe in the cycles of life... because that's just how it is. Buddhism is sometimes a religion sure, but it's mostly a philosophy. It's about acceptance, and taking control of your own life. If I were you I'd do some more research before spouting that kinda bullshit my man. just sayin'. Once you know about the practices, *then* you can go decrying it, at least at that point you'll know what you're talkin' about. smh. I like your channel tho, don't get me wrong. Just kinda rubs me the wrong way :/
Weird observation but I remember years ago Chen’s home decor at least reflected a semblance of having a personality. She had a House Martel flag in the background in some of her videos (which I actually kinda thought was sick) Now it’s the most basic trad girl aesthetic similar to Abigail Shapiro. Weird.
It's not something people really think about because, and I'm sorta guessing but I think it's an educated guess, most polyam people are otherwise queer. The only heterosexual polyam stereotype I can think of is hippies, but that's always accompanied by the idea of them "growing out of it".
Lauren’s part of the same crowd of people that, in the long-run, among many other things, wants to legalize child marriage. So now, here’s the question, who are the REAL groomers? Gee! I wonder! On a side note, when it comes to my views on lgbtq people, it’s quite simple. As long as they understand boundaries and consent, as everyone else should, they’re cool. 👍🏻 You’re part of my circle of friends! 👍🏻 However, if they don’t understand those things, then they don’t pass the vibe check, and should be treated accordingly. As the old saying goes, treat others the way u want to be treated and don’t be a bigot and prick.
On the day of judgement God is going to cancel pride. Pride leads to hell. Repent and believe the Gospel of Jesus Christ before its everlasting too late.
Yahweh has killed billions of people. Satan only killed a few people, in the book of Job, and it was with God's permission. You have a funny idea of good vs. evil.
i wonder what she thinks of nude beaches in europe👀 like, the progressive would say nudity is natural the local conservative would say it's their right as a citizen your move chen
