You would think by now that a group like the left-leaning LGBT Network, led in this case by one David Kilmnick, would know better.
Kilmnick self-describes in this article in the Advocate as “someone who has spent over three decades fighting for the rights of our LGBTQ+ communities, particularly safe spaces for our youth.”
Kilmnick is outraged by HBO Real Time host Bill Maher — an unabashed liberal — as follows. Here’s the headline: Bill Maher Has Gone Too Far With Anti-LGBTQ+ Comments He says, in part, this: On last Friday’s Real Time With Bill Maher , Maher said the number of youth identifying as LGBTQ+ is rising because it’s “trendy,” while he spewed other harmful, homophobic and transphobic rhetoric. Maher continued his vitriolic commentary by taking several more potshots at LGBTQ+ youth, including claims that society was “experimenting” on children through the use of puberty blockers and genital surgery as a means to perpetuate culture wars. Maher correlated his comments on “trendiness” with statistics on LGBTQ+ youth in California versus other states, like Ohio, claiming that “either Ohio is shaming them or California is creating them. Kilmnick then goes on to say this: HBO must take immediate action and remove Bill Maher and simultaneously take action to let every LGBTQ+ youth know they are loved. Right.
Full disclosure, I know Bill Maher and have appeared a couple times on his show in the long-ago. The second time, in fact, I was there to discuss my firing by CNN in 2017 because the network was upset at my calling out the far-left Media Matters for its obsession with anti-Semitism. Which is to say, we were discussing free speech in America.
Bill from the left and I from the right agreed that free speech was essential to a free country.
Now here we go again […]
We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
