'Insulting': Disney+ invents person's homosexuality in famous true story
WND ^ | July 10th 2023 | Peter LaBarbera

How far will Hollywood "progressives" go to advance their agenda of celebrating all things LGBT?

It is based on a diary kept by a precocious, Jewish, teenage girl, Anne Frank, whose businessman father Otto Frank was forced to take his family into hiding in Amsterdam after the Nazis invaded the Netherlands in 1940 and began

There’s more evidence (though admittedly it’s sketchy) that Hitler was gay.

That will never gain traction because the gaylphabet community doesn't want him.
