Trump goes on homophobic Truth Social rant over the Kennedy Center firings

Television isn't the Kennedy Center, ******* dope.
What’s the difference?

Young people are far more likely to be affected by TV than the Kennedy Center performances

Uncle Miltie never called himself a woman. Even the kids knew that the appropriate response to Uncle Miltie was to laugh.






.

Nor do the majority of drag performers. (Of which Milton Berle was one).

We have a huge history of this. Jethro dressing as his sister on Beverly Hillbillies. Some Like it Hot. Bosom Buddies.

You all found a way to politicize something that has long been an accepted entertainment vehicle.

Especially when those performances cost $100 to attend.

Mrs. Doubtfire…
 
I'm an engineer not an arts guy. But Uncle Miltie is long dead. Maybe it will be a challenge for modern artists to return to Family Values and Patriotism? How is this for my taste in art?

I love this song. I live in a small town and it's true.

And country music finally talks painful truth about what's coming.

 
Is that against the law?

Good point, but the Lesh thang is wrong and just not worth responding to, per normal.

I've had many very cherished gay friends. None now, because I live in a small conservative Midwest town.

“Trump on Friday said in a ranting post on Truth Social Friday that he has fired several board members of the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in DC and will take the role of Chairman for himself.

His message also included homophobic insults, baselessly suggesting that the center’s decision to host a recent drag show was somehow related to pedophilia.”


This of course is classic, fundamental fascism – to vilify a class of persons to ‘justify’ Trump’s authoritarian agenda of bigotry and hate.
This will be worse than when our director decided only he could play King Lear..

Tranny performance artists are your “thing”?

American Normal was Glynn Ross, former director of Seattle opera. Beautifully staged operas. Wonderful in every detail -- principles, chorus, costuming, choreography, stage decoration. My first thrilling introduction to opera and it made me a fan for life.

When Ross retired and gay Speight Jenkins took over, started hiring gays vastly out of proportion to the actual statistics, and the productions suffered to the point that we stopped buying season passes. One of my husband's favorite baritone/tenor duets, from "The Pearl Fishers", was simply intolerable, and we walked. The last opera I attended. It ruined live opera for me.

American Normal is a great description.

I'm sorry talentless hacks took over the classical arts and ruined them.

Just because somoene is "gay" doesn't make them instantly relevant to The Arts of ANY type, or on any level.
And hiring all your cronies is one sure fire way to destroy something that has taken many decades to perfect.

These "new gays" aren't gay at all. They are "gay" for their own personal agendas. And like the opera, they've completely anniahlated all the good the REAL gays of the past have fought for, marched for, and died for........to be treated as human beings and left alone to live their own lives.

So, I understand you.
