BOISE, Idaho — A minor confrontation broke out at the controversial “Hetero Awesome Fest” on Saturday when a protester took the stage and began singing a pro-LGBTQ+ song before being removed.
According to several livestreams of the event, including those from Old Street Saloon, the incident occurred during the two-day festival held on June 20-21 in Cecil D. Andrus Park, directly across from the Idaho State Capitol. Mark Fitzpatrick, owner of the Old State Saloon and organizer of the event, rushed the stage and took the microphone from the man after about a minute of singing.
Why are they trying so hard?
Because they’re HAF as fun so they gotta compensate.
Can someone check if the active number of hinge users went up during this event?
Why Hinge? Are you thinking of Grindr?
Also, dozens of people isn’t enough to make a significant blip.
I can’t imagine those heterosexuals. They’re probably fucking right now. Disgusting!
“Dozens”
LOL
I GOT SOMETHING TO PUT IN YOU!
AT THE GAY BAR, GAY BAR, GAY BAR!
so its an event for closeted gay men, to be proud of their facade, and network/hook up with other closeted gay men. who, like them, likely have just as much to lose if they got caught. so they know to keep it on the DL.
i wonder how much cum was swapped at this event from one dude to another. i know it aint zero. im gonna guess at least one full gatorade bottle.
Are you talking about Hetero Fest or the Republican National Convention?
Bro that would be GALLONS of semen.
Like a 50 gallon drum at least. They’re like 40% closeted.
Yes.
Wrong, it was totally straight and not gay at all, because everyone said “no homo” before and after doing what you described. Just dudes having a good time
Wait, I heard one dude took his socks off doesn’t that cancel no homo?
Hetero awesome fest
looks inside
Closeted gay men
I grew up in Idaho. Can confirm, that’s basically the whole population.
This has big “why can’t I also have a cake and gifts” energy.
I went to a kid’s birthday party the other day. There was a little girl (maybe 4y/o?) there who had been to another party earlier in the day but left before that party had cake.
The second that cake was mentioned she starts wandering around going, “Can I have cake?” to anyone who would listen.
“Can I have cake? Can I have cake?” I was told someone had cake and I’ll be damned if I don’t get some immediately.
Heteros cant be pro lgbtq+ now?
Should rename it to bigot festival. Cant call it hetero with all the closest gays it attracts.
BIsexualGOaTFEST?
Hetero- festival
I wonder what song it was
This reminds me of a straight pride event titled “Hetero Pride” that was organized in Finland way back in 2013. One of the organizers was a deputy city councillor and Finns Party member. He claimed how society and the media over-emphasized homosexuality, calling it “homozation”. He also claimed how it was hard to defend the traditional family model without being labelled homophobic and racist.
The event was held near the Parliament House in Helsinki. There were whole a lot more counter-protesters and some came to the event mainly because it was more like “popcorn pride”. One of the speakers at the event literally said in his speech how “we don’t have anything against homosexuals, but…” and another said something about how “the Bible states that marriage is only between a man and a woman”. One speaker was later asked about “what privileges do gays have these days”, and he just replied “I have to be honest, I can’t say anything about that”.
“The tiger can’t change its stripes.” The organizer mentioned later posed in a picture with five other men who made a Nazi salute – one of them was Seppo Lehto, an infamous Neo-Nazi. He also made a Nazi salute himself in another picture, this time wearing a Hitler mask. When called out, he said “I’m not in that picture. I wasn’t there. I don’t know where these kinds of clips came from.” He later admitted being in the picture, claiming how he hadn’t made a Nazi salute: “It’s just a normal salute with the left hand. The official Nazi salute is with the right hand at a 45 degree angle.”
The explanation wasn’t enough for the Finns Party, and as a consequence he was fired from the party’s regional council because of homophobia. Later he also resigned from the party.
I walked through that not realizing what it was. I saw a bunch of kids bouncy houses and there was some terrible country music on a stage. Friends and i were like what is this pitiful conservative day in the park bs and kept walking. We didn’t notice any anti pride stuff but just the vibe was pitiful maga people with vendor tents but i didn’t even see a maga flag either. We were just passing through boise for the first time and got beers nearby. Then a friend saw it on front page of Reddit after we left Boise and we were like holy shit that’s what it was
Dozens lol
There’s dozens of us!
I don’t see why we don’t steal heterosexuality from these dumb fucks and add it to the queer community. Literally make it “OK with people who have preference” against “hates preference” if we stop letting them hide bigotry behind normal things, they can’t keep pretending they’re not bigots.
Just have some delicious drag queen tell them in a husky voice “Babydoll, you see that white triangle hiding in the back on the fancy Pride Flag? That’s for all you vanilla-ass straight motherfuckers. You already ON the pride flag. You’re part of this shit already! Welcome to the party, it’s already going hard, and it’s your turn to sing ;)”
My dude, this post goes so hard it made me blush.

Random straight white dude here. I’m good with this. If my choices are either be included with the LGBQT+ crowd which also includes straight guys, OR be thought of as part of the hateful group who only includes themselves?
I’d rather be part of the LGBTQ+ group. My view has always been you be you, and let others be others. When you start hating others for being themselves, you’re probably the problem. Unless that other person is a nazi or pedophile. Because fuck those guys.
Ideally we don’t fuck those guys, we can’t risk them reproducing.
