Support NeoGAF

[Wilsongt]

So, I basically need to act as straight as possible, never admit to anyone I am gay, and just keep my head down and not speak and I might be able to keep my job and not get gay bashed by Trump's new army.

Got it.

Everyone just needs to calm down. Theres no guarantee this will happen, so before we make anyoutlandish remarks, lets wait for these rights to be taken away before any protests, ok?

Spoiler

Fuck Trump and fuck the people involved with Trump.

 

[Mortemis]

Everyone chill. This is your next president and you should support him. It's the will of the people. 😒

Sigh, give me a fucking break.

 

[SparkleMotion]

But we're supposed to be tolerant of people who voted for him knowing that this is part of his platforn. Fuck all of that noise.

 

[PInk Tape]

But unity, both sides, "he won't actually do it", emails, etc.

I bet they are salivating at the chance to undo all of Obama's progress.

 

[SparkleMotion]

All aboard the train to Trump's America™! Straight white men no longer have to pretend those icky gays are actually people.

 

[J2 Cool]

Could be a long time before we see this again.

 

[Monocle]

Oh good, I was growing tired of being sort of equal in some parts of my home country.

 

[Odrion]

[Seductivpancakes]

You see Trump is asking for unity. Unity involves a man and a woman so this is pretty normal stuff for America.

If possible, i'd recommend LGBT people to move to whatever large city is closest as it'll be their only safe haven for a few years. I told one of my closest female friends exactly that. Move to California where you will be safe. Get the fuck out of MO for sure.

My state (WA) voted for marriage equality long before the Supreme Court ruled it legal nationwide.

I hope the party who bandies about state rights at the drop of a hat actually respects state rights.

god this sucks

Only when it applies to themselves.
Of course.

I am in a deep red state, but not one that is as homophobic as others. However, I just started a new job, and even though I can move to any state and keep my job, I need to finish my year of training first.

Trump already promised to erase Obama's legacy

 

[Anarky]

To every poster who I know is about to downplay this either because they voted for this Orange terror or because "lol both sides are the same" : Go to hell. Do not pass Go. Do not collect $200. Go directly to hell.

That gay Paypal dude that's on Trump's transition team...would he talk Trump down from following through with any of this stuff?

Texas here. I know how it goes. I know Texas is big and has a lot of friendly gay cities/areas, but sadly I don't live in one.

 

[Brandson]

In theory government officials that issue marriage licenses and support Trump could decide on their own to immediately begin refusing to issue marriage licenses to LGBT couples again in advance of any further court ruling. Any judge hearing the case would then have to be willing to rule against Trump while facing an onslaught of intimidation, hate, threats, and harassment from Trump and his supporters. It's not inconceivable that that could start right away.

No, he got his. He don't give a fuck.

Would he trust more this dude .... or his VP that believes in conversion therapy to cure gays ?

 

[Masked Man]

Trump isn't why I fear for my rights and my physical well being. Pence is—and I don't even live in the US right now.

Ben Carson, a vice-chair for Trump’s transition, who has opposed LGBT nondiscrimination protections as an “assault on American rights”

They're fucking American too, though I'm sure they'd try to figure out a way to strip citizenship from LGBT citizens if they could.
