MOBILIZG GAY SGAPORE: RIGHTS AND RISTANCE AN AUTHORARIAN STATE
From Jim Kolbe of Arizona and Ed Shrock of Virgia, to Mark Foley of Florida and Aaron Schock of Illois, we’ve seen a slew of Republin members of Congrs votg agast LGBTQ rights — and supportg anti-gay Republin prints — only to be revealed as gay or bisexual hypocr votg agast their own kd for personal ga. I’d argue the suatn is actually worse wh people like Grenell than wh closeted ais bee by beg out they help create an illn of gay acceptance, givg the thorarian ver even as he tak rights om LGBTQ people to plate enemi of equaly. Relig nservativ, to whom Tmp bows, have learned to accept allowg an openly gay person the admistratn to put on an appearance of tolerance (pecially as long as the person is down wh the rt of the far-right agenda).
Grenell also took money om now ceased polil nsultant Arthur Fkelste — who himself was gay and closeted for many years as he got paid to help elect those whose negligence and hate lerally helped cimate gay men the early part of the AIDS epimic, om former Print Ronald Reagan to vicly anti-gay Senator Jse Helms of North Carola. But when asked about by journalist Ken Auletta, he gave a tellg answer that explas a lot about the motivatns of the kd of gay men who are drawn to thorarians: Anybody who knows me, or knows anythg about me, or who knows the way my md works, would have an awfully hard time rencilg that wh any kd of homosexualy.

Whether closeted or not, they’re out to prove to themselv and the world that they’re not like the rt of those homosexuals — or any of those other people they look down you for readg, and please check out my recent news about The Signorile Report if you didn’t see the post. As the Epispal Church has bee more clive of members of the LGBTQ muny over the urse of the twenty-first century, ordag queer clergy and even electg gay bishops, some Amerin parish have broken away, puttg themselv unr openly homophobic Anglin bishops. For example, Pastor Thabi Anyabwile, a member of the Pelin Project’s advisory uncil, is the source of some of the most vilently homophobic rhetoric to appear on The Gospel Coaln’s webse, falsely scribg all homosexualy as “sexual promiscuy of an abomable sort, ” llg for Christians who oppose same-sex marriage to play up “the yuck factor” their arguments, and nyg that same-sex love is really love.
