FULLY AUTOMATED GAY SPACE COMMUNISM IS THE FUTURE OF HUMANY
That leav me wh only one solutn to a polil enomy of space: fully tomated gay space munism. Gay.
TEXAS REP. LOUIE GOHMERT WILL SAVE US FROM GAY SPACE COLONI
Homosexuals, on the other hand, do not pose a risk of unplanned pregnancy. I’m not sure what’s more worrisome: That Gohmert seems so very ncerned about gay space lonists se of plaary armageddon, that he thks his own relign is exempt om the First Amendment, or that, 2016, a stg member of the Uned Stat Hoe of Reprentativ thks that beg gay or transgenr is a “mental disorr” and “perverse. What they base those laws on might be their sire for relig opprsn, their homophobia, their racism, their sire to please the people who fund them, or their simple sire to seize power and mata .

Perhaps he thought no one would pay attentn to his floor speech— was only days before the Congrs would go on their Memorial Day vatns—but Republin ngrsman Louie Gohmert of Texas cid to give a dire warng about the perils of gay people the middle of a Thursday speech on the Hoe floor, Gohmert, who once proclaimed that gay-rights activists were like Nazis, sudnly started talkg about the film The Martian, which Matt Damon’s astront character gets strand on Mars and is forced to survive there for nearly two a hypothetil doomsday suatn, wh, say, “an asteroid g, somethg that would end humany on Earth, as dosrs were end at one time.
CONGRS MEMBER GO ON BIZARRE ANTI-LGBTQ RANT ABOUT SENDG GAY PEOPLE TO SPACE
”(Hypothetilly, gay and lbian upl uld nceive children wh artificial sematn, technology that should be available to any civilizatn that uld build a space lony. )Acrdg to Right Wg Watch, this is a more sci-fi versn of a former argument Gohmert once ma about what would happen if only gay people were strand on a sert island.
A Hoe Republin went on a bizarre rant agast gay and transgenr people on the floor of Congrs earlier this week, brgg up the Bible, the Foundg Fathers, the extctn of the dosrs, and space loni. The implitn here, as Gohmert clarified throughout his rant, is that homosexualy is unnatural and wrong bee 20 same-sex upl uldn't reproduce. Also, a gay man is actually pable of havg sex wh a lbian woman, and some same-sex upl very likely clu bisexual people.
(Bis, a gay space lony sounds like a lot of fun! But the entire event is a remr that even as the untry mov ahead on LGBTQ rights and guarante same-sex marriage rights, there are still polil lears who thk 's okay to e their time on the floor of the Hoe of Reprentativ to cry gay and trans people as perverse and unnatural.
LOUIE GOHMERT: NO GAY SPACE COLONI!
Louie Gohmert, R-Texas, put a new sp on his “gay island” story, argug on the Hoe floor that the ph for LGBT rights is wrong bee we would never choose to send gay upl or gay animals to space to start a new lony like the Matt Damon movie “The Martian.
Gohmert also ced the work of Jonathan Cahn, a far-right End Tim preacher who believ God is punishg Ameri (and France) due to gay marriage wh events such as the 9/11 attacks, to assert that the end is near. Texas Congrsman Louie Gohmert took to the floor of the Hoe of Reprentativ Wednday morng to warn the Amerin public about a very dire threat facg the ntuatn of the human race: gay space loni.
TEXAS CONGRSMAN WARNS AGAST "GAY SPACE COLONI" TO PREVENT THE APOLYPSE
But Gohmert’s ma fear durg the “general speech” portn of Hoe proceedgs on the lovely Wednday afternoon of May 26, 2016 was that the event of an apolyptic event, NASA might put some gay people on s Noah’s Ark-like lony ship to save the human n watch a vio of his speech (and should, bee ’s pretty funny), but here’s the relevant (or, well, more relevant that the other bs) part:“I really wonr how many people this body who had the ultimate power to ci whether the human race would go forward or not… Whether was an asteroid g, somethg that would end humany on earth, as dosrs were end at one time… Ok we’ve got a spachip that n go, as Matt Damon did the movie, plant a lony somewhere, we n have humans survive this terrible disaster about to befall. Getty Imag/ Sandy HuffakerSend, jt bee someone is gay don’t mean that they’re pable of reproducg. Homosexual mal uld still donate sperm, and homosexual femal uld still bear children, bee we are human begs and we have bras and science and artificial sematn.
If the bt particle physicist or artificial telligence rearcher the world were gay, would sure be a better ia to stick them on the ship than llg Rob Gronkowski jt bee he’s a gigantic heap of virile heterosexual (probably, unfortunately) male flh. LGBT is still a popular term ed to discs genr and sexual mori, but all GSRM are wele beyond lbian, gay, bisexual, and transgenr people who nsent to participate a safe space.
U.S. CONGRSMAN SAYS YOU WOULDN'T WANT GAYS SPACE COLONI, NOAH'S ARK
In a speech on the Hoe floor Thursday, a Uned Stat ngrsman talked about terstellar travel, the survival of the human speci after an earth-stroyg taclysm, and gay people. Texas Reprentative Louie Gohmert addrsed the issu of homosexualy and transgenrism, eventually troducg a hypothetil space lony to make his pot.
Ironilly, Gohmert’s gay space lony ments me the middle of a speech which emphasized passn, along wh Christian prcipl. He did acknowledge the fact that the Diagnostic and Statistil Manuals of Mental Disorrs long clud transgenrism and homosexualy as mental disorrs (they no longer do so).
TEXAS REP. LOUIE GOHMERT TELLS CONGRS GAY SPACE COLONI WILL DOOM HUMANY
The most pellg — and least silly — part of his speech actually me after the gay spachips ments. Neverthels, this hypothetil Noahic journey to outer space where gays are not preferred is one of the sillit ways to addrs the issue, and Gohmert has advertently set nservativ back wh his overactive imagatn.
THE PERIL OF GAY SPACE COLONI!
In the event of a world-endg tastrophe, Gohmert speculated, lears mt ci "whether humany would go forward or not" by tablishg an outpost on another that event, the reprentative argued, gay people should be left behd bee they n't be relied upon to propagate the speci, and that the current ph toward equaly and civil rights will be revealed as a dangero mistake. "If humany is bound to be wiped out by a meteor, maybe humany has bigger problems to worry about than the threat of gay marriage. But even if you accept Gohmert's spec argument that gay people would be unable to create future generatns of humans naturally, the reprentative is apparently unfaiar wh current alternate forms of reproductn (such as artificial sematn), let alone those that will one day likely be vented (such as via ozen embryos à la Interstellar) Popular Mechanics noted 2014, tablishg a viable populatn on another world would take at least 10, 000 to 40, 000 dividual human genotyp to mata a viable enough level of geic diversy.
