So the recent hate towards Pedro Pascal is JK and her loyalists making shit up because he spoke out that she's an awful person? (lemmy.world)

Just want to make sure I have that right. He spoke up so now they are making shit up to try and defame him? Do I have this bullshit right?

Yep doing drag shows because it's funny is the opposite of accepting trans people. It mocks them, and women too.

    It’s a performance art, and like any other form of performance it can be used to be shitty, but it’s not inherently mocking of women or trans people. Some of the stuff I’ve seen on RuPaul has made me cringe, but I’ve also seen queens that dress up like church marms and do a Betty Bowers/old school Colbert skewering of the Christian right.

    I agree, I wasn't referring to actual drag performances, but to men dressing up as women only because they think it's funny!

    I don't really necessarily have a problem even then. Manly men dressing up in dresses is funny because it pokes fun at masculinity, not at trans people.
