Queerty, supposedly free of an agenda, posts pro-Clinton piece. The comments...

Queerty is a free and carefree site for gay guys. You can pretend to read it for the articles, but who are you kidding? Besides, it's 2016: no-one cares if you like to ogle man-candy.

Their slogan: free of an agenda, except that gay one.

Well, they went back on their agenda-free format, and posted a rather meager piece to sing Clinton's praises. (While repeating some debunked lies abouut Sanders.)

The comment section is ... Berning ... with disappointment.

DOMA, DADT, no support for gay marriage until 2013, "gay people are props to her", Monsanto hurts gay life and Hillary supports Monsanto, and she's unelectable without the progressives she turns off by the thousands and tens of thousands.

It seems that even gay guys leisurely perusing articles are not one-dimensional creatures likely to be wowed with her belated window-dressing.

Queerty, if you are reading this: stick to agenda-free writing please.
