Feds Holding Summits for Lesbian Farmers

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is holding summits to promote the role of lesbian farmers as a part of its “Rural Pride” campaign.

The agency is working with singer and LGBT activist Cyndi Lauper for a “day of conversation” about the struggles of gay and transgender individuals in rural America. The agency says its wants to change the perception of what it means to be a farmer in America away from the “white, rich male.”

The latest summit, first reported by the College Fix, will be held on August 18 at Drake University in Iowa.

“The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Civil Rights, in collaboration with the National Center for Lesbian Rights and The True Colors Fund, will engage with LGBT rural communities across the country to host the LGBT Rural Summit Series,” the USDA said. “Each series will offer a unique opportunity for USDA and other federal agencies to share information relating to policies, programs, and services that exist to protect, promote and strengthen LGBT rural communities.”

I just thought about it. I’m a lesbian trapped in a man’s body.

This may work...

They have no understanding of the actual farmer demographic.

We are approaching a time when this type of thing will not matter.

That’s when they will have to up the ante.

[ LOL, it’s worth a shot. ]

If Hillary Frauds her way in, I am about convinced the only way to fix things is for all the hard working people to strike and go on the dole to collapse everything....

Most of the lazy ass black and white trash in the ghettoes are too lazy to apply for all the gubermint cheese without a “social worker” helping them fill out all the forms, imagine if a bunch of formerly hard working people get fed up, stop producing and make it their full time job to apply for every program under the sun...

We could bleed it dry to a collapse in a few months I reckon...

I’m not going to eat any food produced by a lesbian farmer!

Just stay away from lesbian farmer's markets.

You can tell food a mile away that’s been produced by a lesbian farmer!

One of my favorite Trump moments was when Cindy Lauper had to leave “The Celebrity Apprentice” for a day to get a gay award at the White House. The look on The Donald’s face said there was plenty he wanted to say about it, but didn’t.

But there are so many of them. How will they ever find a venue to hold all of them?

I thought that the typical American farmer was a faceless corporation.

Rich white male dominance and oppression? IN FARMING?

Did somebody tell livestock and produce not to thrive for lesbians and gays?

Also, if you’re a family farmer not working under a mega-agri-conglomerate, then you’re far from rich.

The other problem is that nobody wants kale, alfalfa sprouts, cat-poop coffee beans, free-range sustainable low-carbon-footprint island chicken, or other gay food. So homosexual “farmers” whine and cry when they go broke from trying to sell things with low or no demand.

In the spirit of fighting back by taking things to the ridiculous, I, too, am sitting here wondering what litmus test is required for applying other than self-identifying on paper as a lesbian, and also wondering if Jesus would think that’s a sin or if He would laugh?

Probably will be a failure as they don’t know how to plant the seeds correctly.
