At the end of the day, it's still a business because none of this is free. So at least you're supporting a minority business when you pay for a photo with a queen or buy their merch. Should there be a "free" no-cost entry day (sponsored by RuPaul) to make this more accessible to everyone including the poor? Probably but that's up to the millionare RuPaul.

They're not allowed to report on it? Like in Russia? I'm not a big fan of drag either. Not a fan of a tonne of makeup on anyone in general, it creeps my out. But I'm not pigheaded enough to think that my personal feelings overweighs that of the amount of people who enjoy it, and those who put so much time into the art form. Nor am I stupid enough to deny the mass appeal it has, especially among female and LGBT audiences. (Which, make up well over half the population). I'm just not the target audience. Every time I hear a 'right wing' thing crying out about freedom of speech, I look to things like this to be reminded, while I'm mildly annoyed to see a comedian 'cancelled' for an edgy joke I enjoyed, at least the government isn't coming for enforce 'traditional family values' on me.

_“They did vile and degrading things with each other’s bodies. They traded the truth about God for a lie. So they worshiped and served the things God created instead of the Creator himself, who is worthy of eternal praise! Amen. That is why God abandoned them to their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual relations with women, burned with lust for each other. Men did shameful things with other men, and as a result of this sin, they suffered within themselves the penalty they deserved”_ - *Romans 1-24*
