As the increasing threats against drag shows suggest, the Texas GOP's anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric has consequences. Texas SanAntonio SATX SanAntonioTX LGBTQIA DragShows transrights
Recent online threats against a San Antonio venue that occasionally stages drag shows and this week's protest by an armed group the FBI calls an"extremist militia" outside a drag show at the Aztec Theatre didn't occur in a vacuum. And, sadly, they likely won't be the last targeting LGBTQ+ Texans and drag performers.
Now, following the lead of Republican Gov. Greg Abbott who, in the runup to midterms, ordered state investigations of families who allow their children to obtain gender-affirming care, those same GOP lawmakers are at it again. Sadly, we can only assume more Republican legislators will seize on the far-right's recent obsession with drag shows and file similar legislation as the session grows closer. Such proposals fly in the face of the laughable claim that their party is the one that stands for smaller government and greater personal liberties.
