TO GET WOKE .... lindsey is playing you .... he uses the religious RW money and props at every election not to mention his KKK dog whistle lies .... listen to the OLD SCHOOL FOLKS WHO STOOD ON THE FIRST GAY PROTEST LINES IN NYC AND BOSTON >>> YOU FIGHT WITH WHAT YOU HAVE AND LINDSEY IS HIDING BEHIND A LIE THAT PROTECTS HIM AND I WILL PROTECT THAT LIE .... SORRY !!!!!!! TRUTH OUT ... FUCK RIDICULE .... we old folks stood up to fucking ridicule and much worse for our whole lives so don't even try to lecture us because we paved the way for you with broken lives and dreams, suicides, drug and alcohol abuse, mental illness caused by society, broken families .... OUR GENERATION PAVED THE WAY for you. I don't need no sermon from anyone. May not be real for some but this is fucking real for me. STAND STRONG LGBTQIA people, we don't need to be protecting the likes of lindsey .... he is playing us. He lies so show the truth ... simple.
