Doritos: At Last The Rainbow-Coloured Crisps We've All Been Waiting For!

Gay Star News.

And you're also donating to It Gets Better - proudly fetishising gay teen suicide since 2010.

Stonewallers, you did not riot in vain.

Update: 'PepsiCo, who make Doritos (through subsidiary Frito-Lay), are producing a homosexual version of Doritos called "Rainbow Doritos." Doritos are a product marketed to children, so they make the perfect gateway snack to introduce children to the joys of homosexuality', American Thinker.

Dan Savage: Conservative

World Net Daily video columnist Molotov Mitchell (yeah we’d never heard of him before this either) has employed some creative logic to come to these conclusions: Dan Savage is worse than the Westboro Baptist Church, and he should fly with the church to Iraq to protest ISIS...


Queerty.

Perhaps only in America could Dan Savage not be seen as conservative.

Where being left or right is defined not by where someone stands on US foreign policy or economics, but on guns, god and gays.

Savage is a 'patriotic' power-serving media whore pushing the American dream - get rich, get married, get kids - to gay men.

Here's his infamous 2002 article Say 'YES' To War On Iraq.

If he believed that right-wing drivel he should have gone to Iraq twelve years ago.

'The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum.' Chomsky.

PS Remember Democrat Dan's bonkers boycott of Latvian vodka to protest Russia's anti-gay 'holocaust'? As with Iran and Israel/Palestine, 'gay rights' are invoked to defend Western imperial interests.

Suicide: Does It Get Better?

A mother has called for a ban on suicide websites after an inquest heard that her son researched how to take his own life on the web after suffering homophobic bullying.

Ayden Keenan-Olson, 14, was found dead in his bed by his father, Tim Olson, at the family home in Colchester, Essex, on 14 March. He had taken an overdose of prescription drugs and left two suicide notes outlining the homophobic and racist bullying he had experienced at the Philip Morant School, an inquest in Chelmsford heard.

After his death, Ayden’s mother, the author and prominent child abuse campaigner Shy Keenan, said he had been “bullied to death”.

A police investigation found that, in the month leading up to his death, Ayden had bypassed settings on his computer to research suicide methods on the internet.

Mrs Keenan told the inquest yesterday: “My job is to protect kids online but I could not keep my own son safe.”



Heart-breaking, of course.
May be worth questioning whether online campaigns like Dan Savage's It Gets Better actually help fetishise suicide for gay kids...

PS To clarify in response to comment below, the literature on how media coverage of suicide influences and affects risk of suicide is vast - try Googling it.
The phenomenon is called suicide contagion.
Why is this never mentioned in the gay media's gushing coverage of It Gets Better?

Dan Savage: America's Funniest Gay Comedian

RFE/RL: This summer, you helped launch a boycott of Russian vodka to protest the LGBT crackdown. A growing number of bars in the United States, Canada, Western Europe, and Australia are taking part. Some people have criticized the boycott as ineffective, but you’ve defended its success.
 
Savage: The idea behind a boycott of an iconic product like vodka, a nation’s signature consumer product, is to get people talking, to draw attention to the reason why you called for that boycott. Nobody was talking about what was going on in Russia — what was being done to LGBT people in that country, about these horrifying laws — until we called for this boycott. That is what a boycott is supposed to do. Nobody suggested that boycotting Russian vodka would dethrone President Vladimir Putin, that it would bring Russia to its knees, that it would destroy the Russian economy.

RFE/RL: You’ve compared what’s going on now in Russia to Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Can you elaborate?

Savage: The Nazi terror wasn’t the Holocaust in a day. There was a gradual escalation of scapegoating, anti-Semitism, and political violence. No one is comparing what’s being done to LGBT Russians to what was done to the Jews in 1943 and 1942 and 1944. But it is eerily similar to what was being done to the Jews in Nazi Germany in 1933 and 1934. The initial persecution campaigns, the stigmatization, the codification into law of anti-Semitism and this kind of bigotry. All of those parallels are identical.

Hilarious!
Reverse ferreting ahoy.
"Nobody was talking about what was going on in Russia... until we called for this boycott."
Loving the delusional vanity.
Boy, would you have looked stupid if you launched your boycott without bothering to check if Stoli was made in Latvia!
And why did supporters of the daft vodka boycott claim it was a form of economic sabotage?
Can't tell the difference between a law modelled on the UK's Section 28 and the systematic extermination of  the Jewish population of Europe? 
Dan's your man!
In no way is this attempt at equivalence an insult to the six million people who died in the Nazi holocaust!
Saying "This is how Hitler started!" is as dumb and childish and as hysterical and as completely devoid of rational thought as saying people shouldn't be born - cause that's how Hitler started!
It's a gateway birth, yah?
Yes, it's a (US) state-funded propaganda network - just like the evil Russia Today.
It's also why this "interview" is so uncritical and fawning it reads like something from Pravda.
Ironically.
Dan "Say YES To War On Iraq!" Savage - serving American empire since 2003!

• Fuck No, Dan Savage! "created to showcase the cissexist, sexist, anti-asexual, anti-bisexual, classist, racist, sizeist, and ableist douchebaggery of Dan Savage, of "It Gets Better" (for privileged queers only) fame." 
The Tumblr doesn't make the obvious point - how It Gets Better may have fetishised suicide for gay teens.
Thanks for all the dead gay kids, Dan!

Thanks to How Upsetting for alerting me to this GAY COMEDY GOLD!

Gay Goons: It Gets Worse

Perez Hilton has over 6 million followers on Twitter.
Not sure if that says more about Twitter than just twits in general.
Famously - and oh so vocally - opposed to homophobic bullying, Perez thinks torturing a teenage suspect in contravention of international law and all known moral codes is just fine and dandy.
Why have all these right-wing/reactionary gay goons come crawling out the woodwork this past fortnight?

Better watch out, Perez.
Here's the "adorable" over-entitled spoilt gay brat, @LOHANTHONY, and he has over 400,000 followers already, and he has a similar level of political sophistication to you.
And here's the ever woeful Gay Star News showing their usual high journalistic standards by finding another (!) spurious "gay angle" on this story, and that they have absolutely no idea about responsible reporting of an ongoing legal case.
FFS!
I've had enough of these stupid power-serving gay wankers.

All Gay Media: Have You Seen This Child?

It has come to Fagburn's attention that the gay media have not run a story involving a child for five minutes.
These stories are easily recognisable - mainly because of their icky sentimentality.
If you have seen any stories involving any of the following, please contact your local gay editor immediately.

Kid comes out.
Kid comes out... in spectacular fashion! (Video).
Kid writes moving letter about his two "moms" to anti-gay politician (probably made-up, but meh).
Kid organises annoying Lady Gaga flashmob in local mall.
Kid: "I have one too!" - a personal day-by-day diary by a gay dad. 
Kid: "Why I love my effeminate gay son, aged two", by a slightly unhinged "proud mom".
Kid makes yet another fucking Call Me Maybe lipsynch video. Adorable! etc etc.
Kid stands up to high school bullies. So brave etc etc.
Kid posts moving It Gets Better video on YouTube. 
Kid who posted moving It Gets Better video commits suicide (Part of an on-going series).

And remember: Sentimental crap makes the world go round!

Asked whether his campaign fetishised suicide for gay teens and if he hadn''t really thought this through or talked to anyone involved in counselling, Dan Savage said; "Meh."

Oscar Pistorius: It Gets Better

Organisers of the "It Gets Better, South Africa" campaign against homophobic bullying, due to be launched tomorrow, severed Oscar Pistorius's connection with it yesterday...
In his video, which will no longer be included in the campaign, Pistorius said: "Just remember that you're special. You don't have to worry. You don't have to change. Take a deep breath and remember 'It will get better'."

SA Times.

I love It Gets Better videos - some may say they're a bunch of self-serving sentimental, insincere old twaddle - but I think it shows people care.

PS I am stupid.

Gay News: Barf Time Again

A gay man, who was openly gay, has died after drowning in a tidal wave of sentimental vomit, Fagburn can reveal.
Although as yet unconfirmed by doctors, who are openly gay, it is thought this may be another teen suicide related to the sheer pukey awfulness of all those It Gets Better videos posted on YouTube.
Doctors say this exercise in vanity and insincerity may have finally pushed him over the edge.
"We just don't understand this," said his friend, Steve, a gay man who is openly, openly gay.
"He seemed really happy with whatever he was given.
"He always liked watching those YouTube videos they post on gay websites where some posh high school kids do one of those unbelievably fucking annoying flashbomb things to a Lady Gaga song, or ones of some hired killers in Afghanistan lipsynching to Call Me Maybe.
"It's not like he didn't see enough photos of rich gaymarried couples having fun in a park with their trophy baby, either.
"Gay wedding dances, people who film their own coming out and post it online - so brave! - he adored them all.
"And those gay soldier dudes who did bumming - he loved them, too.
"This - quite literally - makes no sense."
