Gay man 'bullied' off Manchester Pride for wearing LGB Alliance hat and t-shirt

They're so toxic, these activists/extremists. They love shouting 'bigot' at anyone they disagree with, and don't even realise that it is in factthemthat are the bigots. Intolerant, homophobic, misogynist bullies who just cannot see how poisonous and deranged they look to everyone not in their bubble.

Homophobic hate crimes happening and actually being cheered on at Pride. You couldn't make it up.

These utter clowns are dragging us backwards, and are doing absolutely nothing for 'trans rights

This, exactly. They're doing nothing for trans rights, and promoting hatred of women, lesbians, and gay people. It's frightening that they are allowed free reign in their dictatorship.

As an American I am apalled at how brazenly they appropriated BLM and that just hearing that chant, in that accent.. Jesus. Aint nobody busting in their doors in the middle of the night on a no-knock warrant and massacring them in their beds. How dare they steal that cry of pain in service of their fancy British problems.

From some of the images I’ve seen from Pride events, I think it’s probably better to not be associated (with those images).

I don't think they need to out themselves. It's pretty obvious what kind of person they are from the kind of behaviour they are supporting

True.

Or is the answer so unpalatable that you don't want to out yourself here?

Yes. I agree. Pride seems to be pretty tainted now. Need something new that is not homophobic and actually supports the LGB.

Why do you support homophobia?"

Enough of the loaded questions, thanks.

It's not a loaded question. It's a pretty simple question. You appear to be happy that transpeople made a gay man unsafe at pride. That stinks of homophobia to me. I am asking you why you seem to support homophobia? And if you don't support homophobia, why are you supporting how this gay man was treated?

Why don't you want to answer the question?

Are you unable to answer the question?

Or is the answer so unpalatable that you don't want to out yourself here?

I think it's best to leave Pride to the homophobes and the animal and baby fetishists.

Better for lesbians, gay men and bisexual people to have our own marches and events.

Let's try another couple:

Why is it anti-trans to advocate for the right, which is enshrined in Law, to be same sex attracted to be upheld?

Why is it anti-trans for a legally registered charity to advocate for those who are same sex attracted to have their legal rights upheld?

Why is it anti-trans to exclude from the above people for whom the above does not apply?

That Lib Dem woman needed a mob behind here to attack that man

What sort of person would do that

Hateful cowardly and homophobic person would do that

It's the same as you asking any GC poster here why they hate trans people.

Swings, roundabouts

This is just horrifying. The absolute glee some people are demonstrating in hounding this man presumably because he wants to signal his right to same sex attraction.

I don't know how they don't see what they've become.

I expect an awful lot of observers will be noting it for what it is as the video is shared to a wider audience.

Window1 a gay man, wearing a t-shirt and hat with the logo of a charity specifically for LGB people was escorted away from a Pride march for his own safety because they started shouting at him about trans people and stole his hat.

Some very impressive and progressive people are saying he deserved it because as a gay man who thinks homosexuals and bisexuals have issues separate from trans demands, and indeed that the two are often in conflict, he is a wicked bigot who should be hounded from public spaces.

These are the same charmers who can be found all over the place telling homosexuals to get over our 'genital preferences' or stay closeted and insisting we be called qu**r whether we like it or not.

You can make your own mind up about which camp you're in. I'll be standing with LGB Alliance and telling the homophobes to piss off.

(Sorry, that was to blueberry's stupid claim that a registered charity is a hate group.)

Everyone knows Talcum X would never sleep with a transman. The gender zealots don't seem to care about that for some reason.

He was being called “asshole” in the video and had his hat snatched off his head.

The Charity Commission agreed that LGB Alliance has reasonable aims which serve the public good. The complaints from eg Mermaids were dismissed as being unfounded.

There are charities solely serving trans purposes, and that's as it should be. Everyone has a right to having their interests as a group furthered appropriately. What I don't fathom is why charities serving solely LGB purposes should be demonised - which is also happening to charities seeking solely to serve women, as defined by sex.

It's not okay to try to silence and harass people simply for collectively organising to defend their own best interests and rights.

He was escorted away by two police officers, which some have taken as evidence that the police removed him from the march, but this appears to be wrong.

I agree with you OP. The police didn’t remove him from the march. I saw in video that he approached the police and you can hear him asking them for an escort as the crowd was being very hostile and I saw something thrown at him...looked like a bit of crumpled paper.

Yes it really does remind me of Orwell's two minutes of hate as well. Very disturbing.

I don't get it? Feeling confused by this thread. Anyone explain in plain English what has happened.
