Dez Bryant: Pride Month Propaganda is ‘Far From Right’

The typical social media feed grew a lot more colorful earlier this week as entities from corporations and professional sports teams to countless individuals switched out profile photos and logos to coincide with the beginning of Pride Month.

Thankfully, not everybody is ready to surrender the rainbow. Our friend Allie Beth Stuckey proclaimed, “Happy Noahic Covenant Month. Love seeing symbols of God’s mercy everywhere!”

Sadly, the NFL doesn’t see it that way. They switched out their traditional logo to include the rainbow and have even produced and distributed a video that states:

“Football is gay. Football is lesbian. Football is beautiful. Football is queer. Football is transgender. Football is for everyone.”

This statement was too much for Dez Bryant, the former Dallas Cowboys receiver.

“These are wild statements to make,” Bryant wrote on X. “Excuse my silliness. I’m going to proudly tell my boys football is none of these things. I have nothing against Gays, but this is far from right.”

He then added:

“It’s gay players in the NFL … but forcing it in people’s faces… especially children… can send the wrong message… Football is a real community, like the gay community. Imagine telling gays they have to advocate for straight people… they probably would have a problem.”

He’s right, but that Bryant feels compelled to offer the caveat that his comments don’t reflect animus towards homosexuals just shows how much progress the radical propogandists have made in trying to intimidate and silence any difference of opinion.

First launched in 1970 on the one-year anniversary of the Stonewall Riots in New York City, it was President Bill Clinton who formally proclaimed June “Gay and Lesbian Pride Month” on June 2, 2000.

Over the last quarter-century, “pride” events have morphed from days to multiple months. Billion-dollar corporations like the NFL, NHL and Major League Baseball have all fallen in line. If you were hoping to escape the ideological radicalism by retreating to the innocence of a ballgame, good luck during this month and even well beyond.

Dez Bryant didn’t share what he would tell his sons about what football really is, but he hasn’t been shy about sharing what he’s learned in church.

“I learned more about myself today in church,” he once wrote on X. “Regardless of your upbringing, good or bad, keep the honor of authority in the forefront of your life because there is blessing when you choose to honor in spite of the circumstances.”

The former NFL start then shared Deuteronomy 5:16:

“Give honor to your father and your mother, as you have been ordered by the Lord your God; so that your life may be long and all may be well for you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.”

He added:

“Instead of us looking at the commandments as old fashioned we should look at them as well fashioned. I hope everyone is having a blessed Sunday.

Dez Bryant is catching grief for his “pride month” comments this week, but we need more people of influence to offer an alternative perspective, to counter the propagandists, and most importantly, acknowledge that it is never right to praise what the Lord says is wrong.
