2. Wow.

Not that it matters but Pete could kick his a— so easily. Bigot and idiot rolled into one.

[Thekaspervote]

4. Yes... and we need to keep repeating that!

No more bigotry from anyone..FULL STOP 🛑

[Demsrule86]

6. I am not a Pete supporter but beyond the pale for Moore to use an obvious LGBTQ slur...

Sanders has the worst surrogates. Sanders gets my vote only in a general.

[Thekaspervote]

8. It is a slur!! MSNBC should be ashamed for letting this slide

[Demsrule86]

17. They let many things slide these days...sickening. I don't know if I will ever watch them again.

I used to save all their shows to the cloud DVR...but not anymore.

[MineralMan]

5. True Colors

Shining through...

Feh!

[Demsrule86]

24. And the true colors are not beautiful... do they think we don't hear the dog whistles? First

hiring Stein supporters, celebrating endorsements from those who are racist and homophobic like Rogan...having people hired and maybe fired who use words like 'retard'...so not funny. We hear you Sanders campaign...this is why Sanders only gets a vote in a general from me. When they tell you who they are, believe them.

[Thekaspervote]

29. +1000

[Demsrule86]

59. Thanks Thekapervote !

[MineralMan]

39. Exactly.

Some people apparently need a seeing-eye dog to help them with their vision problems.

[Demsrule86]

57. That is a great line

[DURHAM D]

7. Take a shower and wash your hair.......Please. nt

[Thekaspervote]

10. I'd prefer Michael Moore go wash his mouth out with soap 🧼

[Demsrule86]

21. I think the poster meant moore should do this...

[Thekaspervote]

23. I edited that post... yes I understood they were talking about MM

But don’t want anyone to misunderstand

[Demsrule86]

28. It could have gone either way...but I have seen this poster and it was out of character.

[Thekaspervote]

31. Thx for "splaining"

[DURHAM D]

26. Wow.

You should remove this post.

[Demsrule86]

30. It has been edited.

[DURHAM D]

33. So now you want Moore to wash my mouth out?

Nice.

I was leaning toward your candidate but no longer.

[Thekaspervote]

45. That isn't what I meant.. not at all. I was referring to MM

[Demsrule86]

62. Don't worry about it anymore...it was clear what you meant.

[Demsrule86]

61. I want Michael Moore to wash his filthy gay bashing mouth out with lifebuoy.

not You. As for voting for my candidate...really I doubt you were anyway?

[Cha]

63. Good advice.. and thank you

for making this an OP.

[Demsrule86]

20. Moore certainly could use this advice along with some lifebuoy soap for his filthy mouth.

[Thekaspervote]

25. Lifebouy for MM mouth would be a start

[Afromania]

9. Fuck this guy and I can get behind your message tho

Go everybody! and keep the dirt to yourself.

[Thekaspervote]

13. Liz was one of the first to strongly come out against this kind of vitriol

Can’t put my hands on it, but she put out a directive saying she would absolutely not tolerate bigotry or hatred from any of her staff or supporters.

It must stop!! The country has suffered enough
I’ll say it again
GO JOE
GO PETE
GO AMY
GO BLOOMBERG
GO LIZ

[Thekaspervote]

22. Thanks Afromania!! I just hate that smirky smile...says a lot

[MH1]

11. Tweet doesn't come up for me - did he delete it?

Just curious what he said. At this point I doubt anything would surprise me.

[Demsrule86]

14. came up for me...here try this.

[MH1]

19. That one worked, thanks. (and, ugh.) nt

[Demsrule86]

35. Yup, ugh...is the right word.

[Demsrule86]

16. If for some reason it still doesn't come up...let me know and I will listen to it again and write

down exactly what was said in a post to you.

[Demsrule86]

12. Great thread...thanks for the information...the more people who figure out that Sanders would be a

divisive nominee who would lose AA, LGBTQ and suburban women ( who gave us the House),the better...his nomination would cost us the general. He gets my vote only in a general.

[Thekaspervote]

18. Thx Dems rule!

This is my call for unity. We have our differences, but we can work them out in a more civil tone. No shouting, no name calling. No one is going to get everything they want

We cannot move forward without the support of the AA, LBGQT community and as you said suburban women

[Demsrule86]

36. Absolutely right...we must come together and beat the orange monster...Yes we can!

Fired up and ready to go...2020 ...we kick dirty donnie's miserable ass to the curb!

[hlthe2b]

15. OMG... Did he really?

[Demsrule86]

37. Yeah, he did...unbelievable.

[Gothmog]

27. Michael Moore is not a nice or credible person

I change channels every time he comes on tv

[Demsrule86]

38. Me too...I can't stand him.

[Maraya1969]

32. I'm sorry but that is a little dishonest. I watched, looking for MM to immitate

a limp wrist and he just didn't. I don't know if putting your hand up is a gay slur because I've never seen it before.

But it is not a limp wrist and it should not be written that way. That hand gesture can be taken many ways.

[Demsrule86]

41. Bullshit...it was a limp wrist...I am sick of this shit. Time to call out Moore and Sanders on

this as Moore was speaking on behalf of Sanders. Sanders gets my vote only in a General.

[Nanjeanne]

48. Thank you for actually watching. I did too and it's absolutely not a limp wrist. Like or not like

MM - his hand motions are distinctly his and he uses his hands that way all the time. There's nothing "limp wrist" or "gay slur" about the video.

Unfortunately we live in a Twitter world where any person can tweet their own personal opinion about something and those who want to believe will - and retweet it as if it's fact. I can bet most ppl haven't bothered to even watch the clip.

So thank you for watching. I wish all supporters of all candidates would actually research and watch and read ... not just headlines or tweets!

[Thekaspervote]

51. think your opinion is in the minority here?

[Nanjeanne]

53. Wouldnt surprise me at all.

[radical noodle]

55. I think we all saw quite enough out of MM

It was obvious what he was doing.

[Thekaspervote]

58. It is obvious

We cannot let this kind of crap define us!

[33taw]

34. How many tours in Afghanistan did Michael Moore complete? Same as trump in Vietnam.

42. When I first moved to Cali in 2012

When I first moved to Cali in 2012 I went to the LA Fitness near the Chinese Theater. There was this gay man who looked like John Cena with a shirt that said if "If you don't like gay marriage don't marry one." If Moore thinks Mayor Pete is soft he should challenge him to a boxing match. Pete would be giving away two hundred pounds but would still destroy him.

46. Why does MSNBC keep having this person on?

He is not representative of Democrats at all.

[Thekaspervote]

47. MSNBC likes to Stir stir stir

[ariadne0614]

49. After watching this clip 3x, I can't agree with the OP.

Based on the Twitter thread comments, I’m not the only one unable to see what isn’t there. To put it mildly, the “limp wrist” assertion requires an overwrought stretch of the imagination.

Mayor Pete is strong, impressive and engaging. He’s high on my gradually shortening list of favorite candidates. MM is, shall we say, messy and sometimes outrageous. Lately my feelings about him have been ambiguous. Nevertheless, I’ve been watching him for decades, and don’t believe for a minute that he’s an enemy of the LGBTQ community.

I do, however, have misgivings about @chrislongview and @SJGrunewald. One wonders about the purity of their intentions. Sowing division comes to mind.

[Dem2]

65. Same

I don't see it either.

[tishaLA]

50. And Chris Hayes just laughs along with him

[Thekaspervote]

52. And that is even worse!!

[Mike Nelson]

54. I did not see it at first...

... but it's there. I also did not really think the ad noting Pete's "decorating" skills as mayor was anything... Now, I think it may be calculated. People do this with female candidates, too, in different ways. I hope it doesn't work...

[Thekaspervote]

56. Agree.....it needs to stop!

[NurseJackie]

60. I hate him! He's a worthless waste of human flesh. That Stein loving, Nader loving POS can go...

I hate him! He's a worthless waste of human flesh. That Stein loving, Nader loving POS can go... jump in a lake.

64. So which office is Moore running for? Where is he on the ballot?

My post on the other M. Moore thread

And yes, he is full of himself.

I did recall him as, pre Windsor& Obergefel decisions as pro Marriage Equality.
TITLE

Moore may tackle gay rights
Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore has revealed that he might take on homophobia and the anti-gay movement in his next documentary.


Source--https://web.archive.org/web/20110803211852/http://www.canada.com/topics/entertainment/story.html?id=645ea831-d37c-41f5-ada5-301a47101e8b&k=9796


Snip--"There is nowhere in the four Gospels where Jesus uses the word ‘homosexual.’ The right wing has appropriated this guy … and they have used him to attack gays and lesbians, when he never said a single word against people who are homosexual. Anyone who professes to be a Christian and does that is certainly not following the teachings of Jesus Christ.”

Moore, who told the magazine he is a spiritual person, said he supports same-sex marriage."


Snip--Moore said he is optimistic that gays and lesbians in the U.S. will have more equality soon “because everyone has someone who is gay or lesbian in their family or their extended family.”

The director of Fahrenheit 911 and Bowling for Columbine said he is proud to speak out in favour of gay rights.

“If you believe in equality, if you believe in standing up for the rights of all, especially for people most affected by bigotry and discrimination, then you have no choice but to be present and accounted for when it comes to standing up for gays and lesbians in our society.”



A couple of weeks back the twitterverse was going on& on about Biden being anti LGBTQ because of DOMA& DATA in the 90s. And wow, 3 days of us old dykes& gay men putting our lived history out there, that has disappeared.

Moore is a jerk, yeah; this one I'm not going with it.

YMMV
