The new conservative boogeyman, Drag Queens.

[Rev. Rye]

Given how bizarre the Conservative conception of morality has turned out to be, it’s not too surprising that they find drag queens more offensive than the fact that someone with bad intent can buy an AR-15 with terrifying ease.

I can remember hearing about how Nick Fuentes reacted to Matt Gaetz being accused of statutory rape by that the age of consent is just a feminist idea to be rejected, and then saying that he finds it more offensive that gay people can just live their own lives in peace. And insert snide remark about Nick Fuentes being a closeted homosexual here.

And before you dismiss that as just one guy who can’t hold onto a platform because his views are so out there even for the right these days, Jose’s new video taught me about a show on Blaze TV (Glenn Beck’s new network) called Slightly Offensive. It’s basically a standard right-wing political commentary show, and rather notably, host Elijah Schaffer came up with the name because he wanted the show to be a middle ground in offensiveness between Ben Shapiro and Milo Yiannopoulos. And to hear him say it, Milo’s mostly offensive to Schaffer not because of suit like harassing Ghostbusters actresses on Twitter or making excuses for pederasty, but because he’s (at least during his heyday) openly gay. And meanwhile, he closes a video (35 minutes into this video) about preferred pronouns by saying “ask me about your pronouns? Ask me if I care if you died today. I literally don’t care.” And remember, this is only slightly offensive to him and not right-wing homophobia and callousness in unmistakable clarity, and that to him, Milo being gay is more offensive than than saying that gender nonconformity is a good reason to tell a person you don’t care if they live or die.
