Talk:Gay agenda

Ugandan content apparently removed here by mistake

On June 19, content about the Ugandan Anti-Homosexuality Act, which properly belongs in this article, was removed from Anti-LGBT rhetoric in revision 1029277457 of 00:20, 19 June 2021 (with edit summary Moving to main article per WP:SUMMARY) and copied here at 00:23 by Sangdeboeuf. Twenty minutes after that, in an apparent misunderstanding, User:Anachronist, believing (so I assume) that the same content was duplicated in both places, removed the newly copied material from this article, leaving a summary here, in the assumption that the other article is the parent article, and this one the child, whereas in reality, it is the reverse, the content having already been removed from the other. The upshot is that the well-sourced full text originally developed at the other article resides nowhere, and each article has but a summary, assuming the other to be the "main" article.

In my opinion, section #Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Act of revision 1029277810 should be restored as a sub-section of #Usage outside the United States to reestablish that the full content resides somewhere (in my opinion, this article is the right place for it) and the brief summary should remain in the other article as it is already. (If consensus is that the other article should be child and this should be parent, then the content should be restored there instead of here.) But we can't have a situation where both articles have a brief summary, with no child article to contain the more detailed treatment, which is where we are now. If the two of you can agree with what you want to do, then I'll make it unanimous, because I don't care where the content lives, as long as it lives somewhere. Edits to that section following 19 June can be remerged in (if not moot after the reinstatement of old content), and I'm happy to help with that, if needed.

You're right. Good catch. I have restored the section. ~Anachronist (talk) 12:22, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

I removed most of this material (including some bizarre errors) since the topic is now covered at The Anti-Homosexuality Act, 2014 § Background. None of the sources are primarily about the concept of the "gay agenda". --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 07:05, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

The "Gay agenda" article is harshly biased and hateful towards conservatism. I couldn't get through the first two paragraphs without rolling my eyes. But I can tell you how to start a fix, 1; Don't blame Christians for inventing the term, 2; Neither blame conservatives.

In fact, the first paragraph can be deleted entirely. The second paragraph also attacks conservatives. This article fuels hate.

It is a legitimate term, if one is to accept the word "gay" as meaning homosexual. I'm not sure why there is any kind of denial about it. Any kind of cause or intent to do something is an agenda.

These days it seems that splitting hairs among terms in the English language is becoming the "new normal". Especially in the arena of social politics. Please, if this "encyclopedia agenda" (wiki) is going to gain some respect, it's gonna need to drop the social slant. Facts are neutral. 174.119.154.242 (talk) 01:00, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

Facts are neutral. Very true. And it's a simple fact that religious conservatives are behind the phrase "gay agenda". Unclear how this neutral fact fuels hate. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:32, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

The term is not just used by 'Christian' right wing people. It is used by the islamic movement and by many non-religious people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A44B:48AB:1:D01B:F23C:27D:86BD (talk) 17:25, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

Homintern, Atlas Obscura ref

I removed the citation to the Atlas Obscura article about the "Homintern" a.k.a. "Gay Mafia". The article is mostly a review of Gregory Woods's 2016 book Homintern and doesn't mention the "gay agenda" except in passing. Any relevant facts should probably be cited to the book itself. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 01:46, 5 November 2022 (UTC)

There is a typo in this section, as LGBT rights is written as "GBT rights" instead. 173.47.14.244 (talk) 19:22, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

LGBT rights is written as "GBT rights" in the beginning of the article. This is probably a typo. 173.47.14.244 (talk) 19:34, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Nevermind, I think I'm just blind. 173.47.14.244 (talk) 19:34, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
