So many of you responded to this tweet about the FL #DontSayGay bill, I haven't read them all yet. Thank you all for your messages of support and kindness. Many of you spoke about your gay and trans kids.💜 There were also some ugly GOP messages. Keep fighting back for LGBT kids.

Florida "Don't Say Gay" bill needs to go down in flames. So does the shit going on in Texas and Idaho and other red states.

What saddens me is the thugs like DeSantis and Abbott won't listen to your words. But that's because they're monsters.

But for those who can take action... even those who might (for whatever damned reason) be sitting on the fence... They need to hear your words.

Affirming and supporting and loving our LGBTQ's helps them become stronger, healthier people.

Bullying and discriminating them leads to self-harm, or making them the targets of other bigots.

Protect children by burning these bigoted bills and orders to the ground, then by locking up the Nazis preying upon LGBTQ youth.

15. I think that's the point. They want self harm to occur. Monsters

[IngridsLittleAngel]

16. Self-harm, or, rile up the QOP base into harming them...

Doesn't matter so long as we LGBTQ's wind up harmed by all of this. Why? We've done nothing to them, and we're just trying to live our lives.

8. Beware of DeSantis - that little dickwad thinks he is going to be King.

tRump was a warm up act - this twerp is pure maniacal evil with unbridled ambition.

19. +1 He's a fascist and more vengeful than the orange one.

Plus he has bad vibes written all over him.

9. The latest out of Russia is the priest

who said Ukraine is being invaded because of gays, gay pride, etc. etc...

I cannot stop thinking about this and things Thomas and Alito have said about same sex marriage and Bannon saying how many genders are there in Russia? and Putin hates gays and i love Putin.

This is really scary stuff and we need to be vigilant and get these monsters out of office.

[calimary]

10. I'm sorry - with all the painful video of the children evacuating from Ukraine

with their moms and siblings, EVERY child should be surrounded by nothing but love and support. And family. And nurturing. And acceptance. And just because.

Tears me up inside.

11. love people like this gal

12. Conversion therapy is a crime in Canada

13. Pray the Gay Away... Shrink the Gay Away... Kill the Gay Away...

Maybe there's a natural progression here...

18. Wonder why God created gay people?

Wonder why God created so many gay animals?
Same-sex pairing is not just normal in the animal kingdom - it's even common. Studies suggest that about 1,500 animal species are known to practice same-sex coupling - from insects, to fish, birds and mammals.

[BobTheSubgenius]

20. Appalling story.

[Lonestarblue]

21. Conversion therapy is true child abuse.

What right-wing religious terrorists are doing to hurt these children is appalling. I’ve stopped calling them extremists because they have gone past that stage into using religion to terrorize people.

[FakeNoose]

22. "Don't Say Gay" is equivalent to brainwashing

It doesn't work, and it's painful for the families and the children who are involved.

[trickyguy]

23. Conversion therapy is a humanitarian crime.

At least this woman survived the trauma.
This therapy has been debunked by many in the medical community.
And yet now we have the "Don't say gay" movement in Florida.
Which is bound to bring more suffering to the LGBT community.
What a disgrace.

25. Sickening

In the 80's there was conversion therapy for transgenders,and it was scary,disgusting and upsetting. They made me wear female clothes. I took them off as soon as I could too.

I still have issues inside because of that shit.

People that support conversion " therapy".Need to be beaten to inches of thier sadistic ,sick ass lives. And the churches that think this conversion shit is ok,I wouldn't care at all if those churches were razed to the ground.

26. I went to an all girls Catholic school in the 70's

We had a group of girls that were obviously lesbians but the nuns never condemned them nor did they ever get in trouble for being gay. I guess our country has become more intolerant than it was in the 70’s.

Something tells me the current right wing media is the reason this country has become so intolerant.
