In a song posted to YouTube, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus has bragged that they are “coming for” the children of conservatives, saying that they will “convert” them.

The song, entitled “A Message from the Gay Community,” was posted to their YouTube channel. “For those of you out there who are still working against equal rights, we have a message for you,” the lead singer says, before kicking off the song. The chorus then kicks off with sick lyrics, confirming the worst fears of conservatives. “You think that we’ll corrupt your kids if our agenda goes unchecked. Funny, just this once, you’re correct,” the singers brag:

WE’LL CONVERT YOUR CHILDREN,
HAPPENS BIT BY BIT,
QUIETLY AND SUBTLELY [sic]
AND YOU WILL BARELY NOTICE IT…

WE’LL CONVERT YOUR CHILDREN,
REACHING ONE AND ALL.
THERE’S REALLY NO ESCAPING IT
‘CAUSE EVEN GRANDMA LIKES RUPAUL.
AND THE WORLD’S GETTING KINDER.
GEN Z’S GAYER THAN GRINDR…

WE’RE COMING FOR THEM
WE’RE COMING FOR YOUR CHILDREN
WE’RE COMING FOR THEM
WE’RE COMING FOR THEM
WE’RE COMING FOR YOUR CHILDREN
FOR YOUR CHILDREN…

THE GAY AGENDA IS COMING HOME
THE GAY AGENDA IS HERE!
 
The response to the YouTube video was resoundingly negative, with 114 likes to 7,200 dislikes at the time of writing, with the number of dislikes rising rapidly. The video was ultimately changed to “private” after the massive backlash. “Imagine singing about perverting children and thinking you’re the good guys,” said one commenter, while another said they don’t think “singing about grooming children is a good move to stopping the hate.” Conservatives on social media also slammed the video, calling it “creepy.”

The description of the video was later edited to claim that it was simply about converting people to being “allies” of the gay cause, and that the chorus didn’t want to make your children gay. “Our message to you from the gay community: we will continue do our best to counter the message of hate by teaching young people to be tolerant and fair,” it reads, claiming the video was simply “tongue-in-cheek humor.”

The irony that the chorus was taking place over Zoom to “socially distance” to stop spreading the coronavirus was not lost on some, with conservative commentators highlighting that the gay community in San Francisco was the epicenter of the AIDS bath house epidemic in the 1980s. Anthony Fauci, who led the country’s response to coronavirus, admitted in February to frequenting the gay bars and bath houses at the time, so he could gain a better scientific understanding of how HIV and AIDS spread among the homosexual population.

This is the second time the Chorus went viral recently, with a cringeworthy live rendition at the Harvey Milk Day celebration of them encouraging people to “vaccinate and make an appointment,” also being subject to much mockery.

Yesterday, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus was heavily criticized for a video they released where the chorus members sang “We’ll convert your children / Reaching one and all / There’s really no escaping it” and “We’re coming for your children”, causing the chorus to ultimately remove the video from its YouTube account and send DMCA complaints to anyone who reuploaded the disturbing video. Today, Internet researchers unearthed a video in which the chorus gawked at a high school athlete while insisting that “wrestling is gay”.

The video, titled “‘Extracurricular’ Virtual Performance by the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus” features 18 men singing about why various sports are gay, gawking over divers, dancers, football players, and wrestlers for their apparently-sexually exciting uniforms. When the chorus began singing about wrestling, they used high school video uploaded in 2016 showing an athlete-turned-activist named Justice Horn wrestling another unknown student.

“Wrestling is gay for obvious,” sang the mostly older men, before pointing at the video of Horn. At the time the video used by the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus was recorded, Horn was a high school student in rural Missouri. It is unclear if Horn was 18 at the time the video was recorded, though it is from his senior year of high school. While Horn’s identity is known due to the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus placing his name in the video, the name of the student he was wrestling is not known. Additionally, it is unknown whether the unknown student was a minor when the video was recorded. (READ MORE: San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus Brags ‘We’re Coming for Your Children’ in New Zoom Song)
In a series of interviews, Horn later revealed that he is himself gay, and came out in high school and college as a gay student athlete. Currently, he is a pro-Black Lives Matter, pro-monument destruction activist turned politician running for local government in the Kansas City area. It is unclear if the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus knew of Horn’s radically left wing politics when using his video, but it is almost certain that they knew Horn was a high school student when the video was recorded.

The YouTube description of the original video, apparently uploaded by Horn’s family member, contains the text, “Justice Horn, Senior at Blue Springs High School (Class of 2016). It seems likely that the person responsible for the creation of the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus. would have seen this description if they downloaded the video from YouTube. The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus uploaded their video in March of this year.
