Six years ago Brandon Wolf made a promise after his best friend was shot dead. He tells The New Abnormal’s Danielle Moodie how we can all make that promise a reality.
Wolf said the only way to make right-wing politicians and sections of the media pay is to make them accountable.
“There is no world where we’re gonna talk the right wing off this ledge. There’s no world where we’re gonna talk politicians like Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott into being more reasonable. They don’t care. Their only intent is to see themselves on Fox News more often, to be wannabe reality television stars trending on social media as frequently as possible, to raise boatloads of money, to amass more power, wealth, and fame. That is the ultimate goal,” he said.
“They have to lose their jobs, they have to lose donors. They have to see their public perception fade. They have to see their names in a negative light. They’ve gotta see people like Tucker Carlson stop inviting them on his show. Tucker Carlson has to see advertisers flee the show so that he can no longer buy that third Rolls-Royce or go on that fourth vacation to Ibiza. These people need to face real accountability for the way in which they have created a toxic environment in our country.
Wolf, who made a promise to his best friend Drew at his funeral to fight for a world that his friend would be proud of, said the raft of anti-LGBT legislation across the country only solidifies his resolve. “I knew in that moment that I may never see that world. That I may never see the fruits of my labor. That I may never see full equality in this country or around the globe, but I had to know that it was worth fighting for,” he said.
