Portland Timber Soccer Fans Take Colorful Stand Against Homophobia
Reminder:
Ender’s Game author Orson Scott Card is a board member at the National Organization for Marriage, one of the largest, most visible, and most vocal anti-gay organizations. Card stands to personally make a fair amount of money due to this film. A fair amount of that money will go to fund NOM and other anti-LGBT causes.
I really enjoy Card’s writing, but I can no longer enrich him. Do not see this film. Do not buy his books. There are many fine actors in this film, and the crew is no doubt full of great people who deserve to make a living, but that’s not reason enough to see it.
Boycott Ender’s Game.
Welp, that’s worth a signal boost.
Fucking ass…welp.
OSC is a horrible, horrible person.
Amen. If you simply must see this movie, hit me up and I will send you a link to it for you to download or stream. A PIRATE’S LIFE FOR ME
…oh. man that sucks.
Because I didn’t see any links proving if this was true or not. I decided to look, and I found this.

WOW
I’ve always known how incredibly homophobic Orson Scott Card is, and it comes across in his books in an almost preachy fashion. I do know some how like his books, however, and I did manage to find that some are available as free Kindle book downloads (though, most likely NOT the books in the Ender series).
While I did like the Ender series, I’m not willing to go see a movie and support a man who is extremely homophobic and who will use his wealth to help fund a homophobic cause.
I’ve seen a lot of people being really excited about this movie since the trailer came out recently, so I’m bringing this back in case anyone didn’t know about it.

The legal architecture of discrimination based on sexual orientation is one of the few things in America that dates back to colonial times that wasn’t built by black people.

Black Lesbian district attorney chained to a jailhouse wall and denied medication after writing a check tellers thought was fake
Sharon Henry, a Black lesbian district attorney of San Mateo, walked into a Bank of America and attempted to deposit a check for $27,000 from her domestic partner’s account into hers and withdraw $1,000. The teller looked up a listing for the partner’s name—Kathleen Wilkinson—but it was a different Kathleen Wilkinson than Henry’s partner, and the listing lacked the notation that Sharon Henry was allowed to make the transaction.
The teller called Wilkinson’s family, who stated they didn’t know Henry and the teller called the police. The police, failing to follow protocol, did not call the phone number on the check, and refused to let Henry make the call, put her under arrest. They locked her up and took away her phone and diabetes medication.
Finally, Henry was released two hours later after her partner arrived at the bank wondering where she had gone.
Henry, a prosecutor, has decided to sue Bank of America for negligence, stating that the bank acted the way it did largely because she was African American. The judge has ruled in BofA’s favor, stating that Henry’s suit is an “unjustified” attempt to violate Bank of America’s free speech. Not only that, but the judge ordered Henry to pay BofA’s $50,000 attorney fees.
Sharon Henry is considering an appeal.Wow, look, black lesbians exist and they experience a unique reality of homophobia and racism. AKA fuck racism, fuck racism apologists, and fuck erasure.
I’m glad she won, and I can’t say if she would have been able to if she didn’t already have her own resources as an attorney.Correction: She didn’t win! I got the names and abbreviations confused.This racism is the norm, never forget that.
No, she didn’t win. She lost. In fact, the judge sentenced her to pay 50,000 dollars to BofA for infringing upon THEIR “right to free speech” (their freedom to wrongfully report her to the police). It’s all kinds of fucked up. She’s hoping to appeal, perhaps.
It’s hard to imagine anyone winning against BofA, let along a Black lesbian woman in a racist, homophobic country like ours.
Thanks for the correction! I got the names and abbreviations mixed. And now, re-reading it… Just… Even worse. Even. Worse.
