Wait, the last one was 1 star?
That’s the one that sold me on it.
Right? “May cause bisexual yearning” is supposed to be a warning?
Brother, I got news for you. If you are feeling bi-sexual yearning, it’s not because you watched a movie.
Oh don’t worry, I’m not confused: I’m reveling.
And we love that for you.
Same. Pink acid trip, you say? I am intrigued.
They won’t be happy until we are all gay.
Christians want everyone to be Christian, they want Christian schools, they want a Christian nation, so they project that gay people want all the same things. That gay people want everyone to be gay, have gay schools, a gay country, etc. It’s all projection.
I want everyone to be gay.
What, bi isn’t good enough?
It worked, I’m gay
Excellent. The plan is working.
The Gay Agenda strikes again!
i think your kinda lumping alot of people in to a group. people are people, it doesnt matter what religion, race or ethnicity. People will abuse power be hateful and do stupid things. saying one group of people want one thing and one thing only is bias and projection and stereotyping upon your part
May as well give up on these people, they aren’t capable of nuance.
The funniest part to me though is they’re saying all these wild things about how Christians feel about gay people yet I rarely experience it myself. But daaaaamn the moment I mention I’m also a Christian they full-on seethe.
It’s bigotry and they’ve fully embraced it.
I am Christian (I’m not out to go modify non-Christians though and have a lot of misgivings about the way other Christians have been approaching the topic) and have been in the church basically my whole life and can echo what u/BarqsHasBite stated. The big fear from their end is LGBTQIA+ folks “converting” the children to change the nation. Spend enough time looking at liberal-based news (I imagine you don’t want to, that’s fine but it needs to be said) and you’ll see lots of examples of Christian vitriol against LGBTQIA+ in a very un-Christ-like manner. If you’re not seeing it around you, you’re lucky.
“It’s bigotry and they’ve fully embraced it.”
As a Christian talking to a Christian, I’m astounded you don’t understand the nature of the culture war going on. One side views homosexuality as a horror that needs to be snuffed out, and the other side views it as a major component of their person that is inseparable. One side wants homosexuality to die and the other side views that as a threat against their person. One side is using the Republican party to attack availability of transgender services that a good chunk of the other side relies on to live because they have followed their gender dysphoria through to personal body modification.
You and a lot of other Christians in this country need to stop with the persecution claims and crawl out from under your rock and have some open dialogue with your fellow Americans or citizens of whatever country you’re in and stop cowering behind your pride and ego. It’s fair to be viewed with mistrust when others of your faith are attacking what they are standing for. We are being intolerant of their choices and then crying intolerance and that is plain idiotic.
The person you’re responding to, Eleazor, just commented to me a week later: “I’m sorry but yes, you should consider bottom surgery mutilation. There’s a difference between the other things but I’m sure you’re missing it.”
Damn crazy how your anecdotal experience doesn’t change what the majority of christians stand for
.
That isn’t nuance, it’s unhinged rambling about stuff I never said, at all. I especially didn’t “cast stones on the queers”. I’m gay, I wouldn’t do that. I cherish gay rights and gay marriage deeply.
I also don’t think sexual or gender identity, or religion, is a baseline for someone doing something that horrible.
No, this is all you projecting your persecution fetish onto people you most likely never interact with. Pretty bigoted take honestly.
The very opposite is in fact true. I’m gay and go to a Christian church, they speak of love and acceptance for all. If there are actually any who fit your explanation they’re an incredibly small minority that actual Christians disagree with.
You must be going to one of those Heresy churches like Unitarian or something.
Cuz lemme tell you I’m from “da souf” and love and acceptable are curse words in the typical southern church. All fire all brimstone and the gays gonna get ya as well as the blue hair demon rats.
You had your more lib churches there and goddamn you might as well went to the Satanic Temple cuz theyd probably treat you better (misguided vs absolute heretic).
Tbh everything good about religion can be replaced with the simple golden rule and idk spirits n shit.
Golden rule being “don’t be an asshole”?
‘treat others as you want to be treated’
Unless you’re a masochist.
Southern Florida, Christian church. The only time I’ve encountered anyone like what your describing has been at pride parades, ironically.
I believe you’re greatly over-exaggerating their existence because you hate all religious people and are trying to convince yourself you’re not a bigot when you obviously are.
The majority of people on Earth are religious. You’ll find “replacing” their beliefs to be impossible. Perhaps you should consider being more tolerant instead of living in a hateful fantasy world.

Uhh what? You completely misunderstood me. I was referring to people that show up to protest pride with hateful signs and megaphones. I’m being genuine here.
I spent years in southern Florida and can confidently say that this person has either been beyond sheltered for their entire life until this exact comment section, or they’re lying to make a bad faith argument. Most people I met there have the kind of political views you’d expect from someone that likes DeSantis, and will make sure you’re very aware of that.
You must have never met any gay people here before then because I can’t think of anyone I know who supports DeSantis.
I don’t know why anyone would assume that living here automatically means you do. That’s not true for any state. My area is also incredibly diverse, I’m sorry but your experience sounds fictitious to me.
I can’t think of anyone I know who supports DeSantis.
How did he get elected then? I’m happy for you that you live in a bubble of diversity, tolerance, and equality, but maybe you should give some thought to those in your state who don’t.
Really incredible to claim their experience fictitious immediately after saying you live in a diverse area
I’m glad your Christian church is open and affirming. So is mine. If there’s LGBTQ+ people out there who would like to try going to an open and affirming church, I can recommend UCC.org
But we can’t and mustn’t deny that a lot of Christian churches have been and absolutely still are hateful towards people who are LGBTQ+ and force them to try to hide or deny their identity. The mealy-mouthed “Love the sinner, hate the sin” means they’re just trying to deny their own sin by pretending they aren’t breaking “and love thy neighbor as thyself.” To just say such people and churches are not “actual Christians” is denial at its laziest and enables them to continue unchecked.
And don’t get me started on whole denominations that refuse to allow women to fill positions of power such as pastor or priest. They’re not going to be ordaining any trans people either.
[Points to post]:
They won’t be happy until we are all gay.
Nice quote I’ve heard literally nobody say before this post. What’s your point? I’m speaking from experience when I say these views are wildly unpopular among Christians.
Homophobic Christians are so common it’s crazy. I don’t know what sort of luck you have lol, or whether you just live life with your head in the sand.
Transphobic ones are even more common. The person you’re responding to, Eleazor, just commented to me a week later: “I’m sorry but yes, you should consider bottom surgery mutilation. There’s a difference between the other things but I’m sure you’re missing it.”
Bruhhh
Leviticus 18:22 ~ You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination
I’m glad you found a church that doesn’t teach the Bible.
Most likely never interact with?
You mean the same people writing laws against abortions or against trans people? They’re coming for gay people next, I guarantee you that much.
There’s something funny in seeing how a girl’s toy still threatens grown-men’s boyhood beyond their 12th anniversary.
That fourth quote is legit quality.
“Confusingly attractive” tells you this person is avoiding some introspection.
No im very bisexual and would describe everyone in that film as confusingly attractive, I get its the point, but they all look very fake and plastic to the point its just on the edge of the uncanny valley.
“Attractive people in absurd situations.” — Samantha Carter Stargate SG-1
sheit, i’m not convinced this is isn’t an official effort driven by the studio to promote the movie by some viral means
this is some genius fuckin advertising if it is, and it’s hilarious free advertising if it isn’t
That’s exactly what this is.
- Make some piece of mass media.
- Use it to drive outrage and division.
- Make mass media headlines about outrage and division.
- Profit.
Consume, consumer!
If the men writing that crap didn’t want tge world to know they were dumb fucks, I’d call this a Streisand effect
“They won’t be happy until we are all gay.” I thought Barbie and Ken were the quintessential straight couple? I haven’t watched the film but that is so odd.
Fellas, is it gay to be in a straight relationship?
Not gay, but you literally want to be in the body of a woman. Can’t tell me that’s not LGBT.
That’s why the straightest thing to do is to fuck another dude, no feminity to make you gay
Listen to classical tradition, they knew what they were doing
Also, a man crossdressing as a woman is the manliest thing he can do because women can only regularlydress as a woman.
Once back in high school, I was walking down the hall with a female friend of mine, and some dumb redneck yelled, “HEY! LOOKIT THE F***T WITH HIS LESBIAN GIRLFRIEND!” I almost died laughing.
“Yes I’m gay. Gay for dat pussy!”
🤣
Margo Robbie is on screen but I can’t stop staring at Ryan Gosling’s toned body and soft face. This makes me uncomfortable and it’s the movie’s fault.
It was a suprisinhly good movie. Kinda sad by the lack of nuclear bombs though
That last one just sounds like a compliment. An acid trip and I get to hang out with absurdly attractive people? Sounds fun.
“Furious Men”
Yeah, because bigot women don’t exist, do they
EDIT: Thanks for the 19 downvotes and a total of one person caring to articulate. I love civil discussion.
I don’t know why one implies the other doesn’t exist. The fact is there are a bunch of MRA dudes very pissed off that a movie about a toy they likely never played with dares to be in theaters. And the things they say about it are amusing.
What I’m saying is, it’s an anonymous site. That person has no way to tell the gender of those reviewers, but they assumed it was men anyway.
I think it’s a fair assumption. I also think it doesn’t really matter since this is Lemmy Shitpost.
