NBC News is in big time damage control mode at the moment. Their “journalist,” Tyler Kingkade has ducked for cover by locking his Twitter account. This move comes after his article for NBC blaming conservatives for the creepy chant of “we’re coming for your kids” at an LGBTQ+ pride event.
Many members of the public are furious and calling Kingkade’s piece a ludicrous attempt to shield the LGBTQ+ community from criticism.
Tyler’s piece suggests that it’s you who’s to blame for these creeps chanting about targeting your kids. He spins it to make them out as the real victims.
Uh-huh. Kingkade then interviews a hardcore gay activist to get his hot take on the situation. Apparently, they chant naughty things all the time! No big deal!
Apparently a confession that they also chant blasphemy and other obscenities absolves them and makes them akshually just upstanding citizens — just like you and I. Hey, remember when the big LGBTQ talking point was that they just wanted the freedom to do indulge in perverted fetishes in the privacy of their own bedrooms?
According to Kingkade, it’s the LGBTQ that are the victims of Republican backlash.
NBC News:
Conservative politicians and pundits have increasingly referred to advocates for LGBTQ rights as “groomers,” associating people who oppose laws that restrict drag performances or classroom discussions of gender identity with pedophiles. The charge is an echo of a decades-old trope anti-gay activists have used to paint the community as a threat to the country’s youths, an allegation that some advocates say endangers LGBTQ people. And the intense reaction to the video has scared some attendees, who insist the quip has been taken out of context.
“It’s really scary to us,” said Fussy Lo Mein, a drag performer and activist who was at this year’s march and declined to give their real name because of safety concerns. “It doesn’t represent everybody — it represents that individual. I thought it was a dumb idea, and I started chanting on top of it with alternate verses.”
So when the LGBTQ warns that they’re coming for your kids, you’re a paranoid bigot if you believe them, right?
