On Saturday, the Proud Boys, an alt-right male chauvinist group, participated in a “Demand Free Speech” rally at Freedom Plaza in Washington D.C.. For the most part, hundreds of local police helped separate the rally attendees and the larger number of anti-fascist counter-protestors attending an #AllOutDC event scheduled for the same time at a nearby location.
But after the Proud Boys rally ended, an unknown female speaker grabbed a mic and approached the counter-protestors, trying to provoke them with her speech. However, a group of drag nuns known as the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence stopped people from hearing her because they drowned out her speech using the “fwap” sound of their fans.
The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, in case you didn’t know, are an international order of drag nuns dedicated to “to community service, ministry and outreach to those on the edges, and to promoting human rights, respect for diversity and spiritual enlightenment.” They also host the annual Hunky Jesus competition each Easter Sunday in San Francisco.
According to their ethos, “The Sisters believe all people have a right to express their unique joy and beauty and use humor and irreverent wit to expose the forces of bigotry, complacency and guilt that chain the human spirit.”
How about we take this to the next level?

Here’s a video showing the Sisters using their fans to drown out the right-wing agitator:

The Proud Boys rally was allegedly to protest the recent “deplatforming” of right wing figures from social media, including the booting of the Proud Boys and their founder Gavin McInnes from Twitter for violating Twitter’s policy forbidding “violent extremist groups.”
Th0ugh McInnes styles himself as a “get off my lawn” hipster crank who disavows “politically correct” speech, he’s far worse. He has called trans people “gender n*ggers” and “mentally ill gays,” has supported Trump’s trans military ban, has called parental support of trans children “child abuse” and has called Muslims a bunch of interbreeding rapists.

The Proud Boys are a self-avowed anti-feminist, anti-Muslim group who beat each other up, never masturbate and attend white supremacist rallies. Among their political beliefs, they seek to “venerate the housewife” and return to the gender roles of the early 20th century.

The “Sisters” have N A M B L A Harry Hay as one of their revered “saints” and therefore are complete trash
Daniel Villarreal
This is the dumbest hot take I’ve ever heard. This is like saying, The founders of the United States were slave-owning rapists, therefore every American is trash. The current members don’t ascribe to pedophilia and acting like they do is ignorant, absolutist and harms the community considering all the good social work the Sisters do.

Harry Hay is referred to as a saint for his founding of the radical faeries. Not that you care since you decided to post a very vague reference regarding Hay and n a m b l a. Daniel is completely accurate in his assessment of your comment.

The Proud Boys apparently can only be proud when putting down on others. Because, yeah, the gender roles of the early 20th century worked for everyone. ?
