Perfectly said! It is inappropriate & harassment in both scenarios, each with their own agenda.
You have to ask yourself: why do drag queens & radical gender activists fight tooth & nail to work with & around children?
CNN and New York Times seem to have liked Zelenslyy's open letter to Putin. As a Ukrainian, I did not.
Zelenskyy’s open letter to Putin reads more like a scripted public statement than a genuine attempt at dialogue. If the goal were truly to end the war and find common language, it would not have been broadcast as performative rhetoric, seemingly crafted for audiences rather than for developing some mutual understanding.
Four and a half years of brutal fighting have already proven Ukraine’s strength beyond doubt. Our people have shown remarkable resilience; nothing more needs proving to anyone. At this point, continued political defiance serves only to extend the suffering.
True leadership, rooted in human values, requires setting aside ego to sit down, listen, and speak without attempts to offend and flirt with radical ideas. Leaders who value their nations’ futures must prioritize saving lives over public posturing. Every extra day of war claims more sons, fathers, and futures — a tragedy both sides must confront with solemn realism.
Instead, the letter reveals the stance of an offended child: indignant, detached, and seemingly unaware of the full human catastrophe. It places personal image above the moral duty to spare people further loss. In the end, wisdom lies not in theatrical strength, but in the humble courage to choose negotiation and preserve life.
@CoVet_81 The comparison is lame because Trump rashly and unwisely plunged us into an unnecessary war-- without seeking the support of Congress, the American people, and our allies. Singlehandedly, he brought about the global increase in the price of oil, and he doesn't care.
When do we get Heterosexual Month?
Oh right.
We don't.
Because the point was never equality. The point was cultural dominance.
For decades, nobody cared who adults chose to love. Then activists decided that tolerance wasn't enough. Acceptance wasn't enough. Respect wasn't enough.
Now every major corporation changes its logo. Every government agency posts rainbow graphics. Every school is expected to participate. Every institution is pressured to celebrate.
And if you don't enthusiastically join in, you're labeled a bigot.
Here's a radical idea:
I don't need a month dedicated to being heterosexual.
I don't need a parade for being a husband, a wife, a father, or a mother.
I don't need corporations lecturing me about sexuality.
What I want is equal treatment.
No special months. No special flags. No special privileges. No ideological litmus tests.
A healthy society doesn't divide people into competing identity groups and assign each one its own season of celebration.
It focuses on what unites us: family, community, hard work, faith, responsibility, and citizenship.
The moment a movement demands constant public affirmation, endless corporate sponsorship, and social punishment for dissent, it stops being about equality and starts being about power.
Most ordinary people are tired of the culture war being shoved into every classroom, workplace, sporting event, movie, and advertisement.
They don't hate anyone.
They just want their country back from the activists who never seem satisfied.
Enough with the identity politics.
Enough with the virtue signaling.
Enough with the woke nonsense.
As a lesbian woman, I fucking hate Pride Month with every fiber of my being.
It makes us look like absolute shit.
The entire LGB has been hijacked by groomers, men in cheap wigs with toilet-paper tits, freaks duct-taping their peanuts to their asses, pedophiles, fetish weirdos and every other kind of gross filth parading down the street.
Real gay, lesbian, and bisexual people want NOTHING to do with this circus.
We just want to be left the fuck alone.The LGB community condemns these degenerates and every organization pandering to them.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk. 🖕
Let’s kick off Pride Month by shattering a myth. Stonewall.
Stonewall Inn was a Mafia bootlegging operation disguised as a gay bar. A filthy one at that. No running water, dirty glasses and steep prices.
In 1966, Genovese Family, Mafia Boss, “Fat Tony” Lauria bought the Stonewall Inn. He ran it as a gay bar to hide its illegal operations, bribing New York's 6th Precinct at $1,200 a month to ignore it. When he missed payoffs, the bar was raided. The raid was about organized crime, gays just happened to be in the crossfire.
Marsha P. Johnson a self-identified “Drag Queen” (not Trans) is incorrectly credited for “Throwing the first brick” - a claim he denied.
In reality, Johnson was passed out on heroin in Bryant Park when Stonewall was raided. He showed up 2 hours later. The raid was never about “Gay Rights”.
Follow me this June for my retrospective and Truth about Pride.

Charles Dickens is the latest legendary writer to be damned as bigoted and prejudiced. Even a Charles Dickens museum has declared his views beyond the pale. The great man would have a field day mocking these puritans, says Sean Walsh

The US has refused to host Iran's national team for the World Cup even though they have to play all their games there
Which means they're based in Tijuana and will have to fly on the day of their games
I've never heard of this kind of discrimination in World Cup history
Willem Arondeus was a gay Dutch artist who participated in the bombing of the Amsterdam public records office to hinder the Nazis from identifying Dutch Jews and others wanted by the Gestapo.
His final words before execution were, "Tell people that homosexuals are not cowards."
On August 7, 1942, a 28-year-old German oil executive stood outside a Jewish orphanage in Nazi-occupied Poland and watched SS soldiers throw babies out of windows.
That moment changed his life forever.
His name was Berthold Beitz.
At the time, he wasn’t a resistance fighter. He wasn’t a politician. He wasn’t part of an underground movement.
He was a businessman working for the German oil industry in Boryslaw, a town in occupied Poland where Hitler’s war machine depended heavily on oil production.
Beitz had a wife at home.
A small daughter.
A comfortable position.
And after witnessing what the SS were doing to Jewish families, he went home and told his wife Else:
“We have to do something.”
Most people in occupied Europe survived by looking away.
Berthold and Else refused.
Over the next several years, they would save around 800 Jewish lives.
Not with weapons.
Not with speeches.
With forged papers.
False job titles.
Hidden rooms.
And unimaginable courage.
Beitz discovered that Jews officially classified as “essential oil workers” were temporarily protected from deportation.
So he started expanding the definition.
Tailors became “petroleum technicians.”
Hairdressers became “oil specialists.”
Rabbis and scholars suddenly had paperwork claiming they were critical to Germany’s fuel production.
He signed the papers himself.
When deportation trains arrived, Beitz sometimes walked directly up to the cattle cars and demanded prisoners back, claiming they were essential workers needed for the war effort.
And astonishingly, it often worked.
While Berthold rescued people publicly, Else turned their home into a sanctuary.
Jewish children hid in the cellar while Nazi officers sat upstairs eating dinner.
Parents who knew they were about to be murdered entrusted their children to her arms.
If the Gestapo had searched the house thoroughly, the Beitz family would have been executed.
They did it anyway.
In 1943, the Gestapo finally investigated Berthold after forged work permits were discovered.
He denied everything.
Somehow, he escaped arrest.
By the end of the war, approximately 800 people were alive because the Beitz family refused to accept evil as normal.
After the war, Berthold rebuilt his life quietly.
He became one of the most powerful industrialists in Germany, eventually helping lead the massive Krupp steel empire and later ThyssenKrupp.
He advised world leaders.
Helped strengthen postwar Germany.
Worked behind the scenes during the Cold War.
But he almost never spoke publicly about what he had done during the Holocaust.
His own grandson later admitted the family learned many details only by reading newspapers.
When people called him a hero, Berthold rejected the word.
He said:
“I was just a human being who saw what was happening.”
In 1973, Israel honored Berthold and Else Beitz as Yad Vashem “Righteous Among the Nations,” one of the highest recognitions given to non-Jews who risked their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust.
Berthold Beitz died in 2013 at age 99.
Else died the following year.
The children they saved went on to have children of their own.
Today, thousands of people exist because one German couple refused to look away while others did.
Berthold Beitz spent the rest of his life believing he had simply done what any human being should do.
History tells us otherwise.
Because when cruelty becomes ordinary, the people who choose compassion become extraordinary.
It's impossible for me to accept what is happening to Ireland.
25 years ago we were essentially homogeneous, now we're on the way to becoming the minority in our own country.
TERRIFYING: More military-age Muslim men continue to arrive in Europe on boats. They celebrate while practicing with swords and knives.
These are NOT refugees. They are literal soldiers, and this is a full-scale religious war of conquest!
