It is intended to identify the real reason and the battle that America and the Western world are currently facing. This is in no way intended to dismiss the lives or significance of what transpired that horrible morning. If it was not a gay nightclub, it would have been any other place where American infidels congregate. It is primarily place of American families enjoying the day together. Disney is not a primary target of gays and lesbians or people of “color, class and gender”. One of them, is the fact that this Islamic trash also scouted Disney properties to carry out his jihad.
As the investigation continues, more and more facts will be revealed. This happened, and has time has shown us, will happen again due to a perverted ideology known as Islamism. This is all part of the equation, but they are not the primary, underlying cause of this evil act. The other believes that the murderer targeted these “people because of color, class and gender too”. One of you believes this to be “first and foremost a hate crime” due to the target of a gay nightclub. You both make valid points which are both being echoed in the media, but ultimately, I believe them both to be off the mark. By the way he has in no way actually denegrated the gay community nor did he mention his album in wake of this tragedy. For “queer-baiting” artists appeal to audiences to sell their brand why is the gay community above being tapped as a consumer base? It actually is the definition of equality. Or stop begging for public acceptance and getting pissed off when you do get public figures to embrace us.
Nick Jonas may not be perfect but he did not just jump on the bandwagon because of a tragedy. There has been a lot of support in the days since the shootings, but a lot of homophobic ststements and memes over social media. Although groups invite people like Chris Brown(whom has made homophobic statements to queer artists) to Pride events where he refused to perform because there were gay men in attendance last summer. If Nick had not been an ally of the community before the shooting I would understand the hubbub,but he shows up. For this he gets more trash talked about him than what appears to be obviously gay celebrities who dont acknowledge their fan base or address questions of their sexuality. Nick Jonas is one of very few straight males who actually acknowledges/embraces his gay fan base. Literal groan as Nick Jonas was announced as the next speaker at Stonewall #SayTheirNames chants Nick Jonas threw the first brick at Stonewall. Why is gay baiter nick jonas at the stonewall vigil? Why the fuck is speaking at the Vigil for Orlando at Stonewall? Could they not find a famous gay person? In NYC? Cuomo spoke then Nick Jonas took the stage. The lack of out & proud gay celebs that led nick jonas to speak at stonewall is a symptom ofthe same illness that produced a closeted gunmanĪt stonewall. Nick Jonas officiating Stonewall vigil shows how much we need an increase in representation + celebration of LGBTQ people within the media. People asking why Nick Jonas officiating at Stonewall is an issue. Hmm.Īh yes you know who we need to speak at stonewall it’s queerbaiting Nick Jonas what a great ally his words are so important Nick Jonas spoke at the Stonewall Inn vigil b/c he’s SO passionate about queer equality but his feed is mostly about his new album. Nick Jonas is speaking at the Stonewall Vigil? Part of being a good ally is knowing when to yield your platform for real LGBTQ people
Y’all will literally let a straight white man take center stage over the graves of queer latino victims before letting QPOC have the floor. Several attendees took to Twitter last night to voice similarly disparaging opinions about Jonas’ appearance: So having the archetypal all-American Jonas stand before us and express how he’s “humbled” and “grew up on Broadway” was a total insult to the brilliant minds of those we lost-the survivors who have to now live with horrific memories. You could make the weak argument, here, about the importance of allies like Jonas, but this vigil was in response to a LGBTQ hate crime-the biggest mass shooting in American history-which took place during a latinx night. Writing for Bullett, Justin Moran shared a similar sentiment: Now is a time when we, as a community, are mourning the loss of 49 queer and trans brothers and sisters, many of them people of color. I don’t want to draw too many conclusions about Jonas’ and his team’s intention with this aggressive “queerbaiting.” But one thing is certain: this is not a time for straight allies to take up space - especially if you’re an ally who just dropped an album three days ago. That Wasn’t It,” The Huffington Post‘s Queer Voices deputy editor JamesMichael Nichols writes: In a column titled “Dear Nick Jonas, There’s A Way To Be A Straight Ally.
