The economy is hell, there are two ongoing wars, and you think a sex scandal involving a political intern and no politician (that we know of) is going to make a lasting impression? Regardless, you cannot obsess over how the action of one person in the community is going to “validate” bigotry. Bigotry will always exist. We just have to push back and call it out. You acting as if there is some legitimacy to them conflating this one gay guy to all of us is actually unhelpful and only emboldens them. If you point out, yeah, what he did was irresponsible and it’s just one random gay guy and doesn’t represent the community at large, you’re better off. 1 2

As a member of this community I will continue calling out these type of actions. They are not cute and they should be condemned. If you wanna look the other way or pretend like they have no effect on us that’s on you. Good day. Edited December 16, 2023 by Raver C O N D E M N E D 6

A couple of reckless men f-cking in a “sacred” (using that term very loosely) space will not threaten any gay movements or your ability to assimilate. Feel free to criticize their behavior—I think it’s tacky too—but be so for real. Everyone is preoccupied with more pressing issues in their lives than a sex scandal in a place where far more depraved shite happens daily. 8

AMIT Posted December 16, 2023 Posted December 16, 2023 3 minutes ago, Redstreak said: Republicans think we’re perverts and so it’s subversive to just… make spectacles of ourselves? Prove them right? Okay, first: republicans don't think. They merely use language and rhetoric to whip up fear and chaos amongst people in order to further their political goals. Second, this was one (or rather two, I guess) person, so not sure about your usage of ''ourselves'' in that phrase. Maybe you're the one falling for right wing rhetoric in taking one individual's actions as representative of a larger group? And thirdly, no one was harmed in the process (as far as I know at least). Why make such a big deal out of this? Sounds like reactionary ''logic''. And finally, yes, performing sex between men in such a conservative space such as the US congress is pretty subversive if you ask me. Why is that a bad thing anyway? Again, no one was even there and there were no people harmed... I mean we know about it now, but so what? You know the state and the government at large have no intention of cracking down on homophobia and are largely comprised of homophobes in fact, right? Why do you care what they think? 3
