We’re not, shall we say, in a good place in this country. Marriage equality is on their hit list, make no mistake.Īnd considering the screaming and shouting from conservative, white parents that teaching their kids about slavery is worse than, well, slavery, do you think these folks consider Brown v Board of Education settled law? Supreme Court is expected to overturn Roe v Wade, something they’ve long dreamed of.
Right-wing conservatives are seizing this moment when the U.S. Stirring up anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment has always worked for the Republicans in the past. Of course, these lawmakers are using these transgender kids as a scare tactic. Grown ass adults looking around at a world in turmoil and deciding that a handful of kids trying to play a game is our biggest problem.
This is such a small group of children for an entire political party to openly and gleefully hate. The specific number of children this ban applies to is so low. Take the Republican frenzy to ban transgender students from participating in school sports. On LGBTQ+ children and their parents and families. That public school teachers are “groomers,” and Democrats want to make your child transgender, and there’s a war on children.īut actually, there IS a war on children. Because honestly, you’re already hearing the same talking points from Republicans across the country. I’ll spare you more quotes from this guy. Get right with Jesus, of course, means “fixing” your queerness. “Red, brown, yellow, black or white, we’re for everybody, and we’re for anybody who’s caught in sin to repent and get right with Jesus,” he says. Just awful.īut don’t call Schimmel intolerant. Look, I don’t believe in Satan, so being called a literal agent of Satan doesn’t ruffle my feathers.īut for LGBTQ+ kids growing up in Christian households? Especially those who don’t feel safe coming out to their parents? Telling them, “Hey, the worst thing in the world is Satan, and everything bad comes from Satan including who and what you are,” is a really horrible message. Satan wants to make your kids gay or trans or something other than cis-gender and heterosexual. 2021, Schimmel participated in a livestream with Chad Davidson called “Satan’s Gay Agenda for Your Children,” and it’s basically everything you think will be. Schimmel’s “take down” of comic heroes includes arguments like, Venom “desensitizes the public” to demon possession and “actually makes demonic possession look cool.” Schimmel also links Superman to the Holocaust. In a video on the Good Fight Ministries YouTube page, Schimmel claims that “a ton of people got saved through” his rock and roll exposé, and he thinks “Marvel & DC’s War on God” will have the same impact. According to the press release, the documentary will be released in seven parts and is 150 minutes long, which is the same length as “Wonder Woman 1984.”Īccording to the press release, “Pastor Schimmel is perhaps best known for his 2004 documentary ‘They Sold Their Souls for Rock and Roll,’ which delved into the hidden agendas of popular musical artists such as Elvis, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, U2, Creed, Britney Spears, and DMX.” Countless parents are clueless as to how their children are being indoctrinated,” says the narrator, Pastor Joe Schimmel. “You are about to see mind blowing evidence that many of the writers that stand behind many of the superheroes are admittedly involved in Satanism and the occult. The movie’s trailer promises, well, a lot… Little did I know, that was the plan all along.īut the truth about all of your comic heroes is finally coming out thanks to the new documentary “Marvel & DC’s War on God - The Antichrist Agenda” by Good Fight Ministries. Well, here’s a short overview of personal favorites within gay cinema of the 2010’s, followed by some anticipated LGBT-themed films in 2016.Wonder Woman (specifically Linda Carter as Wonder Woman) made me gay. The former an instant classic, the latter a drag.
Two French queer films, albeit totally different from one another, which gained quite some attention and praise. It lurked in the shadow of La Vie d’Adele, which shook the earth by showing a tumultuous lesbian love affair in all its aspects. What surprised me even more was that it didn’t stir up any controversy when it was first shown at the Cannes festival last year. L’inconnu du Lac received much critical acclaim ( also by other The Filmtransition staff members), which surprised me, to say the least: it’s likely one the most overrated (rest of and dull films I have seen in a while. When French gay thriller L’inconnu du Lac was released in Dutch cinemas it made me come up with a list of the best LGBT films I’ve seen this decade. But since everyone’s doing it… these are the most interesting, gripping, funny movies that are in some way ‘gay-themed’. Defining movies as ‘LGBT’ or ‘gay-themed’ is in fact a bit stupid, as it has nothing to do with a genre at all.
