Let's Establish a Gay Homeland

We all wish for a place of peace and prosperity where we can be safe.

Where would you establish it, what are the rules, and what are its basic needs?

by Anonymousreply 105December 3, 2024 1:54 AM

I don't think we fully thought it through when Provincetown, Palm Springs and Fort Lauderdale were chosen. They're more seasonal destinations and the other half of the year is hell.

Central coast of California is still relatively under-developed - trains to SF and LA. Good weather, great wine and produce, nice beaches. Yes - I know there are some expensive areas there now - but nothing like NorCal or SoCal.

Gays were able to oust a severely homophobic mayor in Ft Lauderdale but haven't defeated the homophobic Congressman in Palm Springs. One big problem is that, as soon as gays move in, the prices go way up.

The rest of Coachella Valley has a lot of old white retired folks from other places who vote Republican because - well, they're old white straight people.

Warm weather gays would not see the Falkland Islands as a desirable homeland. However, if you added incentives like free 24/7 ferry service linking the islands to mainland Argentina, which would mean access to an endless supply of hot Argentinian cock. We'd reinvigorate their often turbulent economy. A win for both sides.

When a name for the homeland is decided, its formal title should be "The Most Serene Republic of ----." San Marino shouldn't be the only country with such a fabulous formal name.

How will this homeland be governed? Will it be a full democracy or some form of hierarchy based looks? If democracy is the choice, the system should be parliamentary like most of Europe. The U.S. system places too much control in the hands of the President, which could lead to some log-cabin Trump-like narcissist conning his way to power and trying to destroy the system from within.

Here's a suggestion. How about we don't make the Gay Homeland in the US? Firstly, Americans are extremely homophobic (certainly the most homophobic of any western country) and have a long history of violence and working against gay people to keep us down and "othered". Specifically religious white Americans. With the second Trump presidency looming, this will only get worse as these people feel emboldened and justified by Trump's resurrection.

Secondly, because of the prevalence of so many guns, any Gay Homeland within the US would just attract gun violence, bombs and other violence/hatred from extremists in general. So let's not.

I nominate a warm, tropical location like Bali or something similar. A large island.

The problem with establishing our homeland is that we would have to start from zero: no infra, no power, no gays. What we should do is all move to Puerto Vallarta. You can establish up to 4-year residency in Mexico without trouble (still maintaining your us citizenship). Once enough of us are there, pouring money into the local economy, we can start to run of office and take over politically, possibly establishing a new political party in Mexico. Mexico is much further ahead in LGBT rights than the US, including same-sex marriage, adoption and civil unions. Close enough to the US if you needed to travel back you could with relative ease so all the Disney gays can still go to Disney. Lower cost of living. cheaper medical and prescription drugs (even much of them available over the counter). d

You don't want to be stuck in the middle of nowhere like Ascension Island (smack in the middle of the Atlantic), too far south like New Zealand, or a strip of Argentina, Chile, Namibia, etc.

1 - Buy enough land to incorporate into a city.

2 - Expand its boundaries as much as reasonably possible

3 - Include mountain and coastal terrains.

4 - Create an online liberation movement

5 - Bribe Italy to give you semi-autonomous status.

6 - Come out gloriously gay.
