Glenn Beck is totally pissed, you guys. He cannot believe the gall of Sir Elton John, who recently called for a boycott of Dolce & Gabbana after the fashion queens voiced their opposition to same-sex couples having children and IVF babies.
“We are on the path of putting Galileo back in the tower!” he warned audiences of his TV show yesterday, before launching into yet another one of his tirades about liberals who are on a not-so-secret mission to destroy anyone who challenges their beliefs. Like, for instance, Dolce & Gabbana.
“Is this the kind of freedom that we’re at?” Beck asked. “The party of progress is making progress indeed. Back to the Dark Ages! Back to the days when differing scientific views were labeled heresy and black magic!”
To be clear: No one is saying Dolce & Gabbana isn’t free to express their views. Or accusing them of practicing black magic, for the matter. But sometimes words have consequences.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“As the march toward conformity continues,” Beck continued, “America gets farther and farther away from the place where those who will change the world with art and science and music, those who will bring on the next Renaissance just might find themselves locked up in a tower and sadly never paint the next Mona Lisa.”
Hmmm. Last we checked, Dolce & Gabbana were Italian fashion designers and Sir Elton John was English. If America is being led “farther and farther away” from non-conformity, we’re going to go out on a limb and say it has very little to do with these guys.
Watch Glenn Beck’s tirade below. Or don’t.

Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from criticism. How stupid these right wingers are.

Not that i expect much from Beck, but Galileo did nkt paint the Mona Lisa. He is said to have conducted his experiments in telescopy and grwvity within the Tower of Piza, so “putting him in the tower,” would be encouraging his research, or af least encouraging more data collection. Let’s leave aside the hypocrisy of anyone on Fox News claiming that scientific progress is under attack (especially when the focus is on a couple of fashion designers) let’s just appreciate the fact that Glenn Beck knows less history than your average 8th grader.

It’s the rigidity of these right wings morons that are restricting creativeness. If douchebag & garbage are really creative, they will not have time talking crap and focus on creating new designs. Obviously the two waiting on their feet to steal one of their minions idea to produce the next fashion.

Glenn Beck is like that senile guy that thinks aliens are trying to read his brainwaves. “Yes, Mr. Beck. We know that monsters are under your bed. Now, come take your pills and prepare to be strapped down to electroshock therapy!

In Ireland we have an epithet that aptly describes Glenn Beck. He’s “a gobshite”.

I didn’t know this assclown was still around. I wonder how he feels about D&G being in a long term committed relationship for decades?

call me gay, but I would probably snort coke off of Glenn Beck’s penis if he would allow me to… and he probably would if I offered to share some of the coke with him…
