This weekend is the 50th anniversary of the “Stonewall Uprising.” The violent street demonstrations resulting from the NYC police crackdown on the gay-lesbian-transvestite underground Stonewall bar in Greenwich Village on June 27, 1969 for public behavior that was then illegal in 49 states is credited with kicking off the homosexual rights movement. The event is currently being celebrated in mainstream news accounts, nation- and world-wide commemorations, and corporate advertising that is treating Stonewall much like like Rosa Parks’s refusal to go to the back of the bus in Birmingham, Ala. In 1955.
Seasoned journalist Celia Farber, however, is calling attention at her Web site The Truth Barrier to the questionable actions of “Pride 50,” as it is called, in censoring the #WalkAway movement’s attempts to get its message out.
Farber broke the story of the #WalkAway movement exactly one year ago in an article in The Epoch Times – described in Thomas Lifson’s article in AT on July 1, 2018.
On June 29, 2019, Farber reported on the travails of Brandon Straka....
“Pride”, on the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, allows no “dissent,” from within its ranks. It has become a new totalitarian cultural movement, not one of “inclusion” but of a comprehensive domination–daring any company, group, school, church, or individual to fail to show allegiance by hoisting its flag. The explosive displays of Rainbow flags seems merely an expression of fear–trying to ward off accusations of “trans-phobia” were anybody to leave any public surface neutral. Most people don’t care that much about other people’s sexual orientation, but in this case, we don’t have that option. We must show constant enthusiasm, even as the very same people who demand our tolerance so often show us hateful intolerance, amidst an ever more tyrannical and even violent atmosphere.

Not to mention that poor man who was assaulted and seriously hurt in Portland.
Violence is becoming accepted.
Peter Thiel (founder of PayPal) and Richard Grenell (US amb to Germany) come to mind as leading gay conservatives. Didn’t realize Andy Ngo was. Heartbreaking what happened to him. :(
Well that was a poorly researched recap of Stonewall.
No mention anywhere of underage prostitutes.
And Rosa Parks played out her role in guerrilla theatre in Montgomery...NOT Birmingham as the article states.
Trump has bent over backwards to be nice to the queers, yet in any coverage of various “gay pride” parades I have seen, they seem to double as anti-Trump political events.
Andy Ngo is homosexual?
Doesn’t fit the narrative.
