The TRUE Dangers of LGBTQ+ Activism 

To get amazing LGBTQ flags, books, pins, jewelry, magnets, clothing, and more while supporting our educational work, please go to: professorpridestore.com. PLEASE NOTE: In the video I talk about a man who tried ruining my life and threatened to kill me just for my activism. I quoted the police record for that man when I said the police thinks he has “multiple personality disorder”. I realize in the video I should have noted something called DID or Dissociative identity disorder as well because this is the new and better term to define people like this. But to be fair, Multiple personalities disorder is the name written on his police record and thus what I was quoting in our episode. I did not mean to offend anyone else who has DID as you are not the problem. It’s simply this one man who tried ruining my life who is the problem and frankly, I don’t care if I offend him because he threatened my life and my family. Again, I’m sorry I didn’t say both MPD and DID in the video. I was simply quoting the police record for this man but you’re right, I should have gone a step further. Opening up about this was scary for me so perhaps in my haste to get the video made, I made this oversight in the script. I apologize for that. But I do appreciate the comments informing us of the mistake so we can try to do better in the future, although I hope this is the last time I have to talk about the man I spoke of in that episode because I hope his jail term lasts his whole lifetime for his multiple crimes against me and others. Sincerely, Professor Pride

It is terrifying to think that wanting to have rights can get you sometimes killed

It is sad that I will never be able to Mail you a handwritten letter of thanks. I hope this comment will due. Thank you Professor Pride.

I came out to my mom on February 23 and to my dad on February 28. You helped me through coming out and I deeply thank you for that ❤️

This show has definitely helped me. It helped me know who I am (asexual, panromantic and trans) and I'm so thankful that me and people like me have these resources that people used to no not have. This community is such a good community. Thank you for being here.

I’m really sorry you had to go through that

Thank you for making this show. This show has helped me come out to my mom and deal with being a bisexual demi transguy. It was there when no one else was. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for that. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for this channel and this content! This channel has helped me and so many others in more ways than one. I am so sorry you had to go through that experience. No one deserves that kind of hate. EVER.

I'm sorry that you all had to go through all that and I hope you all are doing ok now .

Just wanted to say, I've been here since 780 ish subscribers and you are an absolute inspiration. You helped me through so much and thanks to you I've been able to stably come out as trans (agender) and be excepted. Thank you so much it means so much that I can be safe here.

And people at my school say it's weak to come out as LGBT, smh

Amazing strength, Matt. Your voice is a testament to your dauntlessness. 🏳️‍🌈

Wow I am so sorry Matt We Love You! ❤️🏳️‍🌈

I wish your channel 1 million followers for your channel, you make good content. An straight (cis/normal) boy with gender nonconform. From Hungary/Ukraine

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

It really is sad knowing that even though progress has been made over the decades, we’re still seen as lesser people. I’m terrified of coming out to my dad because he’s not exactly an understanding and open minded person.

I hope you all are safe and I have to say thank you for making this content even with the risks

I came out to my friend as lesbian! it went well they actually came out to me also as non binary haha anyways you helped me come out so thank you :)

This was so hard to hear. And I'm happy to help you Mod this channel because by having at least one outsider mod I feel like that this channel is safer as well. Maybe if you spread out your team there's less risk of you guys being harmed. I would probably be really devastated if something happened to you and your team. But I would probably still try to take care of the channel as best as I could until there was a new owner. Even if I had to announce to my personal channel that I was needed somewhere else. Just please be careful out there

God bless you for your work and labor of love.

8:53 Matt just to let you know using the term you used can be offensive to the DID community instead you should use Dissociative Identity Disorder or DID. Make sure you do more research before making the video.

I just got an ad and here's the quote from it " this medicine is not designed for people assigned female at Birth" I'm going to cry I have not heard an ad inclusive like this before I just feel like this is important

Hello, I'm not incredibly knowledgable about this since I dont have it, but multiple personallity disorder is an outdated term, and was changed to Disosiative identity disorder (or DID) to better fit the disorder. It's a good idea to be careful about these topics especially because from what I've seen theres so much misinformation about this type of thing, which can harm a community just trying to live their lives, and that aren't dangerous like that awful person you talked about was. Anybody who knows more about this please correct me if I said something wrong, but I hope I helped? What happened sounds awful but I'm awed at your dedication to make the world a better place despite all that!

I am sorry that despite everything there is still such hatred from dangerous people and such negligence from elected officials in your area. I am glad that your crew, family, friends, yours and your fiancé's lives are safer due to your active measures of security. Things could have been far worse if you hadn't taken measures. Aside from the topic at hand I wanted to personally thank you and your team the only way I can considering. I am a pansexual and polyamerous man. I may not always 100% agree with everything you post, but I am glad you are out here for the LGBTQIA community. We need more people like you. I hope for future success and security.

So if you meet with these historians I'll tell you what to say Tell them that the Nazis Never really went away soing on the day the nazi died

I hope that lazy DA gets voted out and that the guy making threats gets thrown in jail for a long time. Stay safe. Survive the hate.

Thank you so much for not giving up, for standing and fighting like a soldier and for sharing your storry. I will pray for you all to be save and to live in peace. Much love and hugs. from Germany.

Thank you for what y'all do!! Keep up the work.

Your videos have helped me to get my mom to understand a little bit more. You explain things in such an amazing way and I hope that soon she will really understand me and my sister.

Sorry to hear about those issues, hopefully things will improve (especially hope they've improved since posting the video) for your team. The only part I hated hearing was that it would take over 6 months before the perpetrator would be arrested for going after an LGBT friendly group, but with luck they'll be arrested longer after all they've already done and be locked up for a long time

Dangers like this must be faced if we're to bring about change.

I love this channel when I feel l down and about my self I come a watch your guys videos

the fact that this is what reality is awful beyond words i'm not one to support any kind of harm, but when it comes to trans/homophobes, i see no boundaries to what they deserve. we're just people being ourselves, we haven't harmed anyone by being who we are, and we certainly don't deserve to be targeted just for that.

i truly wish, someone could explain to me, why it matters if someone is gay or transgender, if he does a good job. Why it matters, if they are good or bad looking, if they do a good job. because... honestly. i dont get it.

about 2 months ago in june there was a pride event where i live. apparently some nearby churches were complaining about it but i didn't really pay attention to it. it wasn't until i was at the event that one of my friends pointed out that there were authorities in CAMO SUITS, HOLDING BINOCULURS AND SHOTGUNS ON TOP OF NEARBY BUILDINGS. i was glad that there were people protecting us, but it was unsettling that security to this level was needed. luckily, nothing bad happened.

Good on you for being willing to enact retribution on the Democratic Party; I just hope your commitment to the Republican candidate doesn't turn out to be premature (they could nominate someone worse).

I recently discovered your channel and I am very happy I did. You provide excellent information and education on our LGBTQI community.

Thank you for everything

I only just came out as a transgender woman back in September of 2021 Ilike your show and I also love learning all that I can about this topic

I love your channel, still as I write this on Nov 23, a few days ago we had TDOR. Have you ever thought of add this to you November videos?

"Please note I'll be promoting the republican challenger whoever that may be" PRIMARIES! Seriously, work on primarying out your DA rather than giving away all your rights by supporting the Republicans. That was an insanely dangerous choice. Love isn't prevailing if it gives up to hate against it in reaction to equivalent hate against it.

Hope you don't mind me wearing my Powered By Rainbows shirt in videos when it arrives. People want to love and so haters resort to force. Lots of love and hope things get better for you.

Wow! That’s dangerous! However, I am wishing you well For sorry you all had to go through that just to give everyone education on love and acceptance

good show thank you

You rock dude. Keep up the good fight.

I've heard of activists getting death threats but, I hoped that kind of thing would have been a thing of the past. It would be cool if you could have a P.O box for fans to send stuff but, it's not worth risking your life for. So, unfortunately us fans will have to live without. We'll just have to settle with buying merchandise.

Disgusting how far people will go just because they are against a certain community

This is so scary 😨 this is deranged I'm so sorry you all are going through this thank you so much for the education it's so important and people are so evil

Glad you and your team(and families) came out of this mostly unscathed. I think I'll never understand people like that guy...

If anything happens I will do what I can from here in MD

Daaaamn, this is disgusting, i wish everyone just respected eachother.

Im sorry but thats sad that this is how our community works Google the Mauryan Empire like their civilization from thousands of years ago is better than ours. Ty so much this is the best channel im so thankful I found this. It means alot ty for actually trying to make our world a better place

I love your vids

Of course his bad day might last a day. And yet ours, is forever.

I know this isn't the point of the video but there are hundreds of how to make a pipe bomb videos still up

Here is a cake for all lgbtq ppl 🍰🍰🍰🍰🍰🍰🍰stay safe out there!

omg are you ok 😭

well i have to say thank you too! i was so confused when i learned about people being gay or trans, but now i understand, and i'm an ally! thank you! just saying before i hear the stories…

Hi Matt! Love our vids. Hope you stay safe from those crazy homophobes and transphobes out there. And PS your Defense Attorney is so dumb lol.

This is a good video but I just realized I've been watching on 144p for 15 minutes LOL 😅

I’m sorry but I’m sure that district officer knew what doxxing meant…. I do hope you are alright right now.

TV show? this is youtube...

I want to say that this is a great video but I want to criticise one thing: You used the term Multiple identity disorder when talking about the circle of 6 companies. However this is a highly outdated term and to people with the respective disorders (namely DID (dissotiative identity disorder) and OSDD (other specified dissotiative disorder) it is quite offensive. Of course it was not your intention to be offensive I hope but I just wanted to point this out. Also, the term personality is also outdated. Try using the term alter. This is written with good intentions in the hopes that you may not accidently offend anyone (btw, no I am not a system for those who might ask. I'm just in contact with a few sytems)

i love this you tube channel their a good cause gay rights. are human rights

it is scary to think just by ur gender or pronouns someone would threaten u but people can be what every they want to be. I do wanna say this: I am a proud Gender-fluid, Bisexual, Graysexual person. and I think that everyone should be respected for who they are. :)

let me guess: homophobes, transphobes et cetera

Just live

Hi
