Since When Did Criticism Of Gay People Become 'Anti-Gay Hate'?

One thing that exasperates me sometimes with elements of the GL community is their hypocrisy.   They have no problem telling others that they should 'evolve' on issues of importance to them, loudly castigate people for expressions of homophobia and bigotry aimed at them, and even use satirical graphics to emphasize their points.  .

But when you turn the tables on them and point out the GL community deficiencies in being good allies, their own historically documented shady behavior, or their problems with the biphobia, transphobia and bigotry in their ranks then all of a sudden they get huffy about it and you get castigated as a 'hater' or peddling in 'anti-gay hate'?

Excuse me?    Is this another term I'll have to add to the Gay, Inc Dictionary? .   
   
One thing is certain, y'all have been watching the conservafools and trying to ape those projection tactics. It ain't cute.

What got my attention and triggered this post was this NG 2.0 blog post that accuses ENDAblog of being anti-gay.

If you're accusing ENDAblog of being anti-gay because Kat has been highly critical of the 'all marriage all the time' slant of gay activism lately,  you're tripping.   

But Kat's a big girl and she can more than defend herself.   She doesn't need my help doing so. 

You really want to see examples of anti-gay hate, how about surfing over to any conservative dominated website, Unfocused on the Family, or read the ramblings of Bryan Fischer, Maggie Gallagher, the Tea Klux Klan, the Texas Republican Party platform or Marcus and Michele Bachmann?

There's a difference between thoughtful criticism of policy stances and straight up hateful rhetoric, and some of y'all in the GL community need to learn the difference between the two..

Still Not Happy About The Trans Free NAACP Town Hall Meeting.

If you think that the passage of time has lessened my pissivity over the NAACP's trans free LG(bt) Town Hall that will be taking place at 2 PM PDT today, nope it didn't.

And their repeated deletion of this comment from their FB page made me even madder.

NAACP, if your goal is to have a serious discussion of the issues that face African American LGBT people, then you can't erase trans people, the folks who are taking the brunt of the casualties and discrimination, from the July 25 discussion due to no African descended trans people sitting on that panel.
 
Note to NAACP...I have a blog that a lot of people read...big mistake   And I'm not the only transperson of African descent pissed about your GL(bt) panel either   Our allies are standing in solidarity with us.  Kat at ENDAblog also has some choice words about it as well. 

Yeh – and black T people share a common history (one that they have in common with Ts of all colors) of continuing to struggle against being fucked over by non-T Gs and Ls of all colors.

Yep, sad but true.  

And it took them several hours, but the Advocate, that paragon of GL journalism stenography finally credited me for the quote they borrowed for their article on the festering NAACP controversy, but took their sweet time doing it.   

I found out about it just before I went on air on TransFM at 7 PM CDT yesterday to talk about the erasure from the NAACP panel.   It still hadn't been corrected when I went to bed at 1:00 AM CDT


I'll still be interested to watch this sham town hall meeting and see how many times they mention the T-word and appropriate our stories without a representative of our community being there.
