Politicians in #Tennessee have passed a bill which now heads to the Governor to be signed into law that would criminalize public drag performances.

From one performer in #Tennessee:

"The original Pride was a riot! And, if this year, we need to remind them, that we will fight for our liberation, we will raise our bricks high again and let them know that we will not go quietly!...We are queer people, we are very strong, and we will rise!"

@igd_news preemptively telling any β€œbut what about the poor storefront windows? πŸ˜­β€-ass liberals to shut the fuck up.
      

@igd_news

First amendment infringement much?

@igd_news fascism is alive and well in Tennessee, to nobody's surprise
@igd_news My sister and I are going to TN next month to visit our dad. Guess we'll be arranging a side quest and finding a drag show to attend.
@igd_news So many real problems in this country! But this creates political anxiety and someone benefits from it.

@igd_news This is Bella DuBalle, by the way. They are a dear friend of mine, and one talented bitch.

@igd_news tume for Ru Paul to rip it up in Tennessee?

@igd_news It will at LEAST be bricks. They should read the history of all that happened at Stonewall-and how totally the vice squad, ATF, and riot squad were defeated.

I guess we won't be seeing corporate floats trying to deny Stonewall at Memphis and Nashville Pride this year.

@igd_news But it's the Left who are the real tyrants with all their cancel culture.... not the Right literally criminalizing people dressing up in a way they disagree with.
@igd_news i shall use my Taekwondo skills to beat up a cop that defends these pro-fascist laws... take their gun(s), and anything else they might have on their person... and then use those weapons against them to protect me and others! THEY WILL RUE THE DAY THEY DECIDED TO GO AGAINST US LGBTQIA PEOPLE!!!

WE ARE QUEER, WE ARE STRONG... AND WE ARE A UNDEFEATABLE COMMUNITY! WE SHALL ALWAYS FIGHT SINCE WE ARE A FAMILY THAT DEFENDS EACH OTHER
