Gay Man Allegedly Dismembered A 14-Year-Old Boy He Met On An LGBT Sex App
Adult gay men are using apps to seek out minors and sexually abuse them, but LGBT activists would rather perpetuate a false narrative.
After all the mechanical malfunctioning in its Boeing 737 planes, you'd think United Airlines would be doing everything in its power to keep customers coming back. But apparently that's not the case. In fact, United Airlines is booting people off planes.
Recently, a woman and her 16-month-old baby were kicked off a United Airlines flight when the mother accidentally misgendered a nonbinary flight attendant.
In a video, which has since gone viral, the mother explains how she, her mother, and her baby were “denied boarding" because while “speaking to one of the flight attendants, [she] got their pronouns wrong.”

If that wasn’t bad enough, the plane crew “took [their] luggage,” which contained vital medications for both the woman and her mother.
“I said ‘I'm really sorry ... I'm not very versed with pronouns,”’ she recounts in the video. “I was holding my son. He was having a temper tantrum. I had the car seat on my back. I wasn't really focusing on anything except getting my son's car seat on the flight and getting him comfortable and safe.”
The United crew deemed the situation a “hate crime” and allegedly barred the woman from flying United ever again.
“We don't even know how we're going to get back today,” she told the camera. “I don't know what to do ... I don't know what my rights are here.”
While Dave Rubin “can't speak to the legitimacy of her claims,” he does think it’s highly probable the mother was “not causing a real problem on the plane" — not to mention it’s a scenario we’ve seen a hundred times before.
“That is why these woke things are so dangerous,” he says. “They are breaking down the very fabric of society.”

As the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas wars rage on and illegal aliens cross into the U.S. through its porous border with Mexico at alarming rates, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently carved out time to warn State Department staffers against "misgendering," National Review reported.
Blinken told employees in a Feb. 5 cable that assuming gender based on appearance “can be problematic” and sends a “harmful, exclusionary message" and to avoid using terms such as “mother/father,” “son/daughter,” and “husband/wife," National Review said, adding that it obtained the text of the “Modeling DEIA: Gender Identity Best Practices" cable and confirmed its authenticity.
The outlet said Blinken's cable suggested that employees state their pronouns in email signatures and when introducing themselves in meetings “to show respect and avoid misunderstandings.”
“Commonly used pronouns could include she/her, he/him, they/them, and ze/zir,” the cable noted, according to National Review. “This is a personal decision that should be respected."
More from the outlet:
The cable also instructs staffers to use “gender-neutral language whenever possible.” Problematic terms like “manpower,” “you guys,” “ladies and gentlemen” and even “mother/father,” “son/daughter,” and “husband/wife” should be avoided. Better to use terms like “labor force,” “everyone,” “folks,” “you all,” and “parent,” “child,” and “spouse” or partner” instead, the cable says.
“When speaking, avoid using phrases like ‘brave men and women on the front lines,’” the cable adds, suggesting that staffers “use more specific language such as ‘brave first responders,’ ‘brave soldiers,’ or ‘brave DS agents.’”
The cable also instructs State Department employees not to “pressure someone to state their pronouns,” to handle mistakes with “subtlety and grace,” and to remember that gender identity “may be fluid, so remain attuned to and supportive of shifts in pronouns.”
National Review said the State Department replied to its request for comment saying that it doesn’t comment on leaked internal documents.
Reader comments underneath National Review's report weren't exactly sympathetic to the sentiments expressed in Blinken's cable:

The State Department is offering free counseling to agency employees devastated by a new IT feature that accidentally "misgendered" some employees.
Last week, the State Department was asked about pronouns appearing in the "from" line of employee emails who did not manually add them because, in many cases, the pronouns were incorrect. As it turns out, the agency had been testing a new program that allows employees to add their "preferred pronouns" to their agency profile, but the program inadvertently went live before it was ready.
In the mix-up, the "from" line of emails randomly displayed incorrect pronouns — or at least not the ones employees chose for themselves, according to the Washington Free Beacon.
State Department sources who spoke to the Free Beacon said agency employees were "shocked and confused" by the glitch. One employee said, "A lot of people here have been triggered today."
On Friday, State Department CIO Kelly Fletcher sent a department-wide email apologizing for the mishap.
In that email, she said that "any employee who feels hurt or upset as a result of this unfortunate mistake" should contact the agency's employee consultation service to "speak to a professional counselor."
"I want to stress that the intent behind making this feature available is to make our systems more inclusive and provide employees with options—not to make decisions for them," Fletcher wrote in the email.
"I recognize that this error had the opposite effect, and again, I am very sorry," she added.
Fletcher explained that any profile that had been misgendered would be corrected in the IT system by Saturday. When the new pronoun system officially launches, she said employees would be given ample notice to add their "preferred pronouns" to prevent future misgendering.

Virginia Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears minced no words during her Friday appearance on "Real Time with Bill Maher" when one of Maher's guests bemoaned the media's so-called "misgendering" of the Nashville school shooter.
Maher argued that it would be prudent for the media to deny mass murderers any publicity whatsoever and called for a policy comparable to that already adhered to at TheBlaze: "I don't want to know what orientation this person is, how old they are, what their manifesto said — I don't give a sh** about any of it because it's just going to inspire the next one."
While Maher was forward-looking in his media criticism, James Kirchick, a writer for Air Mail and the Daily Beast, focused on the mainstream media's recent treatment of a mass murderer.
Kirchick noted that in the immediate aftermath of a militant transsexual's massacre of six Christians in a Nashville elementary school, the media had been inconsistent in its references to the child-killer's sex.
TheBlaze previously reported how various liberal media outlets initially said the Covenant School shooter had been a woman. However, upon learning that she had identified as a man, the New York Times, CNN, USA Today, Kirchick's Daily Beast, and other publications took measures to ensure that they were on the record as not "misgendering" her.
The Daily Beast, for instance, had originally reported that a "Rifle-Toting Woman Kills 6 in Nashville Christian School."
The title of the article was later changed to "Cops Release Shocking CCTV of Nashville School Massacre," ostensibly to accommodate LGBT activists' sensibilities and sensitivities.
Kirchick told Maher that this initial inconsistency was not reflective of "the way the media usually does these things. They are usually very particular about the subjective sense of gender identity and respecting that. If someone says they are a man, then they're a man. But in this case, they are not doing that."
Earle-Sears interjected, saying, "Hang on, you know what: This person murdered six people. I don't really care who you say you are. You murdered six people and three of them were children."
"You don't get a say," continued Earle-Sears, noting that's a forgone conclusion in this case because "she's dead now, so, you know."
\u201c"They are misgendering and dead naming the murderer. They are referring to the murderer by their given name and not their chosen name. ... If someone says they're a man they're a man."\n\n"This person murdered 6 people. I don't really care who you say you are."\u201d— Eric Abbenante (@Eric Abbenante) 1680318715
While Earle-Sears had the last word on naming rights for dead murderers, Virginia's first female lieutenant governor had yet more to say on the broader culture war afoot in America.
Concerning parental rights — an issue that was central to Gov. Glenn Youngkin's 2021 election win — Earle-Sears noted that it is not the government's role to co-parent: "I'm a parent. I'm a parent all day. I get to decide what happens in my child's life. Not you, not the government, not anybody. I don't co-parent."
"I had this child. I'm responsible for this child. Anything that happens to little Johnny, you're calling me, right," she continued. "If I don't want my child getting lap dances at school by a drag queen, I don't want it done."
When the panel broached the subject of guns and gun ownership, Maher referenced Tennessee Republican Rep. Andy Ogles' Christmas photo wherein he and his family posed with rifles, noting that "many Republican politicians do that."
Kirchick interjected, making sure to mention Earle-Sears' widely circulated campaign image depicting her brandishing a firearm.
In reply, the Republican lieutenant governor made no apology for the image, first noting that she is a Marine and that she knows "how to use it."
"I have that photograph because I got tired of seeing black people every time we’re in the media about guns, it’s always bad. We are law-abiding citizens. And we’re not going to give up our Second Amendment rights."
Earle-Sears stressed that the fastest-growing group of gun owners is women, noting, "It was a black woman that said you need a Winchester rifle in every home. A black woman during the civil rights and before said that. And Harriet Tubman carried a gun. If it’s good enough for her, it’s good enough for me."
Maher conceded that as it pertains to physical combat between men and women, "guns are a leveler. You know, if you don't have guns, then the person who is physically stronger is always going to win."
As for the constitutionally protected right to level attackers, Earle Sears said, "If you're breaking into my home while I'm waiting on the police to come, I'm gonna shoot you. That's just the way it is. I'm going to pray for you, but I'm gonna shoot you."
