Ron DeSantis Declares War on the LGBTQ Community
The vile video reflects DeSantis’ campaign strategy — staking out a lane to the right of former President Donald Trump on major culture war issues. It’s unclear if there are any limits on what he’ll do in order to claim that territory.
While a dark, thumping beat throbs in the background, the video celebrates DeSantis’ zealotry by quoting headlines and clips of pundits criticizing DeSantis, referring to him signing the “most extreme slate of anti-trans laws in modern history” and producing some of the “harshest, most draconian laws that literally threaten trans existence.”
Interspersed among these clips are images of men presumably intended to convey DeSantis’ persona, which include: Christian Bale in the film “American Psycho,” in which he plays an unfeeling sociopath who murders homeless people; Brad Pitt as the warrior Achilles in the film “Troy”; Leonardo DiCaprio as a cocaine-addled, wife-beating Wall Street fraudster in “Wolf of Wall Street”; and the GigaChad meme , a photoshopped depiction of an imperious-looking ultra-muscular man originally associated with incel forums.
As some have observed, the funny thing about this video is that stylistically it’s sort of camp, and the emphasis on muscular men alongside a techno beat that could plausibly be heard at a gay club gives it a homoerotic vibe. Chasten Buttigieg, the husband of Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, responded to the video by tweeting : “This is actually very gay.
Maybe DeSantis is still trying to recover his masculinity after all of the go-go boots memes. Or maybe he didn't like it when we called him "Rhonda". Personally, I thought Rhonda looked pretty in her thigh high go-go boots.
We don't need no stinking rules.

crap. now everybody knows what I'm thinking when I read regressive rwnj cultural bullshit...
I think Dick Santis is trying to outdo the CONServative/republican asshole who said something along the lines of 'I hate gay people more than terrorists do'
People have survived for millennia. Went through that black plague, inquisitions, wars, ultimately landing where we are today.
And what are some people worried about? Not wanting to do business with gay people....
Plague is one thing, but I hear gay people have cooties.
if they look you in the eye, you'll spontaneously ejaculate whenever you see pastel colors forever...
cooties - lol
Just don't wear a mask...
Everybody has cooties. The LLGBTQ+ community doesn't have a monopoly on them
I don't have "cooties" Trout. I live in Floriduh, so naturally, I have crabs.
It seems that his ''culture wars'' aren't gaining him a lot of support.
But when you have nothing else always attack those in the minority.
DeSantis is a fricking moron.
he'll be running on his list of accomplishments in florida...
none...
This link isn't about DeSantis's attack on the gay community but it sure points out his hypocrisy.
DeSantis' own immigrant story in conflict with his opposition to "birthright citizenship"
But...but...but....his great grandparents were WHITE!
Now they are but in that time period they were not considered white and we still let them into the country.
A significant portion of the GOP under the sway of Trump want war and are at war with everything that is not------------afraid, phobic and a threat to freedom for all.
Perhaps the only solution is to take Trump down completely and see if the nation and The Constitution can withstand the threats Trump will bring. There is much on the line here. If the MAGA(donians) succeed American democracy will fail as will the democracies in Europe. Ukraine will be the first victim and its demise will be swift. Putin is on 'the waiting game', assured the republicans will deliver what he needs to win and survive.
DeSantis simply wants to be a 'grocery clerk' for the oligarchy. He believes in ultimate power and is more than willing to work for 'them'.
