If you want something to read, Fagburn heartily endorses this article by Stephen Thrasher from Village Voice's new Pride Issue on the corporate takeover of gay.
Why has liberation been overtaken by equality in our collective imagination?
Why do people obsess over promoting "marriage equality" over other LGBT issues?
Why are some campaigners only capable of seeing gay people as consumers?
If big business is funding gay groups are they buying silence on their dodgy working practices?
And just because a politician is pro-gay why should we overlook how otherwise they are a reactionary right-wing scumbag and/or unconvicted war criminal?
Please write your answers in full and show your workings...
• The above tweet sent by Gay Star News made me despair - in 140 characters or less it perfectly encapsulates the attempted cultural banalification and political stupification of our world. "So excited". WTF?
