Vice News gets it all wrong once again.

MassResistance has been helping residents in the Illinois village of Lake on the Hills. A local bakery, Uprising Bakery, has been pushing left-wing nonsense onto the city.

Specifically, they have been hosting drag queens and their salacious performances. Fortunately, local residents have been protesting this public abuse. Of course, Vice News wants to stand with the perverts and creeps, so they wrote a glossy piece defending the creepy bakery and her owner.

But what's really going on here?

She Planned aDrag Event For Her Bakery. Now the Far-Right Stalks and Harasses Her.

One woman
wanted to hold family-friendly drag events at her Illinois bakery. Now she’s
the focus of a violent, rapidly escalating harassment campaign.

There is nothing family-friendly about drag shows. We are talking about creepy, sexually deviant men dressing up as garish, offensive parodies of women who perform explicit stage acts. There is lots of drinking and drug use involved, as well. There is no place for drag in the public square, and especially around families.

FAR-RIGHT
PROTESTERS HAVE REGULARLY TARGETED THE UPRISING BAKERY & CAFE SINCE THEY
STARTED HOSTING DRAG SHOWS. PHOTO VIA UPRISING BAKERY'S FACEBOOK.

It was an early
evening in August, around 5 p.m., and Corrina Bendel-Sac was closing up at the
bakery she runs at a strip mall in Lake in the Hills, an Illinois suburb.

She got into
her car, and as she started to make her way home, she noticed something
unusual. Another car was following her. No matter how many turns she took or
how hard she tried to lose him, the car remained at a steady pace behind her vehicle.
Bendel-Sac began to panic.

Rather than go
home and reveal her home address where she lives with her kids, Bendel-Sac
drove to a different neighborhood, pulled into a stranger’s driveway, and then
called the cops to say she was being followed.

On first read, this story doesn't pass the sniff test. Did she file a police report? Is there any record of her calling the police for help?

Corinna Bendel-Sac, pro-predator bakery owner

Bendel-Sac, 31,
had reason to be concerned. Ever since mid-July, when she announced plans for a
family-friendly drag brunch at UpRising Bakery and Cafe, Bendel-Sac has found
herself in the middle of a rapidly escalating harassment campaign from
far-right extremists, conspiracy theorists, and MAGA types.

One again, there is absolutely nothing "family friendly" about drag queens bouncing around kids. If there is anyone who belongs in a category, it's Corinna, and she belongs in the same group in league with predators, perverts, and pedophiles who think that kids should get used to drag.

When news of
the upcoming “Starry Night Drag Brunch” got out, Bendel-Sac was bombarded with
threatening phone calls and messages trying to get her to cancel. A roving band
of local culture warriors called “Awake Illinois” (who recently described their
activism as “a civil war” that’s “mostly being fought by moms”), along with the
far-right Proud Boys, organized a protest against the brunch.

 The words "far-right" get bandied about by left-wing rags like VICE because they think that anyone who disagrees with them is a Nazi. Of course, the Nazis were left-wing to begin with, but left-wing propagandists like VICE are not historically astute, either. For the record, there is nothing hateful about mothers who want to protect their kids. If anything shows how corporate and establishment the Left has become, it's their efforts to demonize parents who protect children. After all, the DOJ called parents "terrorists" for protesting abusive policies at their local school board meetings.

“Roving band of local culture warriors"? Really VICE? What would you call Antifa, then?

Then, on the
eve of the brunch, a man with ties to the Proud Boys from a town 62 miles away
allegedly smashed up the bakery, broke windows, and graffitied statements like
“F—–s rape kids” and “Christ is King” on the walls. “This hero deserves a
medal,” far-right personality Lauren Witzke wrote after police arrested
24-year-old Joseph Collins in connection with the vandalism. “These pedophiles
deserve to rot in a cell.”

More about "proud boys" and all the upset about the vandalism of one bakery. Of course, where was VICE News when Black Lives Matter and Antifa were routinely looting stores and rioting in the public square? Do they defend those rampant criminal acts?

And how do we know that it was a "right-wing extremist" who vandalized the bakery? The left often sparks false accusations by destroying their property and staging hate crimes. Jussie Smollett, anyone? Besides all of this, the local police staged cameras around this bakery, and yet they didn't have definitive proof of who do what. Interesting …

Despite
continued hostility from the far-right, Bendel-Sac has remained undeterred and
continued to host family-friend drag events at the bakery.

 That's not true. She cancelled one event during the summer already.

“We’re lovers,
not fighters,” said Bendel-Sac. “We’re a little bit badass, and people are
coming out to support us. A lot of people want us to be that safe space for
everyone.”

Well, none of this is true.  One protester got ‘mooned’ by one of her
supporters. Is that love? 
Jim sits out there every day to share what is happening inside the bakery. He does not call people names and he gets out of the way when people drive through.

There is nothing bad-ass about grooming kids into sexual perversion. Bendel-Sac is a bad woman, certainly. And people are against children being invited into an adult show, not against the bakery or the business.  It's very simple.

Today, there’s
a growing semi-permanent encampment of far-right protesters outside the
UpRising Bakery—and each weekend it seems to get bigger, Bendel-Sac says.
“Every weekend, it’s ridiculously tense,” she told VICE News over the phone as
she was making brownies. “Outside, you have Westboro Baptist Church people, you
have people putting ‘Jesus is King’ flags out, you have Trump flags, anti-LGBTQ
flags.”

 That's good news for the protesters. There is no excuse for a bakery to push perversion on kids. Instead of just protesting, they should set up their own bakery and start bringing real role models to read to the kids and protect them from the drag queen perverts.

She’s gotten
death threats and rape threats by phone, letter, and email. People have
compiled dossiers on her, collecting information like what pets she owns and
where she’s gone on vacation.

Where's the proof for any of this? Nowhere.

They’ve filed
record requests with the school district that her kids attend. The protesters
outside have called her a pedophile, and threatened to call child protective
services on her. “People have gone to great lengths to target my kids,”
Bendel-Sac said.

It's understandable why people are calling her a pedophile. Anyone who allows drag queens around kids is sick in the head and is grooming those kids for sexual exploitation.

Members of her
family have since moved in with her, to offer additional support, and she now
carries a taser wherever she goes. She’s also currently raising money to hire a
security detail for future drag events.

 This is one sick puff-piece, all to defend a creepy woman who wants adult perverts to pray on children.

Since the
beginning of this year, the far-right have waged a conspiracy-fueled campaign
targeting family-friendly LGBTQ events, including drag brunches, drag queen
story hours, and Pride celebrations around the country. They’ve used tired
narratives bashing the LGBTQ community as inherently predatory, and
incorporated QAnon themes about evil satanists operating child sex trafficking
rings, to claim that bringing kids to those sorts of events is tantamount to
“grooming.” This campaign has recently expanded to smear doctors specializing
in gender affirming healthcare, openly LGBTQ school teachers, and the
transgender community, and has joined neo-Nazis, Proud Boys, anti-vaxxers, MAGA
types, and GOP political figures, in a rallying cry of “Protect Our Kids.”

 The vast majority of people across the country, including residents in deep-blue Illinois, do not want kids groomed at PRIDE events. Does that constitute the "vast right-wing conspiracy" that Hillary Clinton railed against twenty years ago?

And it's interesting to see VICE News list all the complaints against groups pushing to normalize homosexuality and transgenderism:

  • Predatory
  • Satanic
  • Trafficking children
  • Grooming
All of those attacks are pretty accurate, actually.

Bendel-Sac’s
vision for UpRising Bakery when she opened in 2017 was a place where everyone
felt welcome and that celebrated diversity. The way she felt she could
communicate that message was by catering to a wide range of dietary
restrictions through her baking. “We offer the exact same options, the same
exact menu, same pricing, for all diets,” said Bendel-Sac. “Vegan, gluten-free,
keto, sugar-free, all of that.”

 How can anyone feel "welcome" when a drag queen is going after kids? With that "semi-permanent" protest growing outside of the bakery, it's pretty clear that lots of people do NOT feel welcome in the bakery, and furthemore the bakery is not welcome in the city.

In late 2021,
she decided to start hosting events at the bakery in the hopes of bringing in extra
cash and deepening bonds with the community. “Due to COVID, it was getting
harder for us to make ends meet. Pastries were not paying the bills,” said
Bendel-Sac. “We have a really large space here, and bakeries tend to die down
and close around 4 p.m.” So, she began holding karaoke nights, live music, and
art classes.

She grooms kids for the money. No surprise there.

“Starry Night
Drag Brunch” was going to be UpRising Bakery’s first drag event. Bendel-Sac,
who identifies as bisexual, said she was aware of the firestorm raging nationwide
over family-friendly drag events but thought hosting the brunch would be a good
way to “engage the community, and reach out to a new part of the community to
let them know we were here.”

 Bendal-Sac wants to sleep with men and women. Sickening. She has issues, and she wants to parade these issues before the public for some form of validation. And she is using kids to further this disgusting cause. This woman needs help, clearly!

After the
bakery was vandalized, Bendel-Sac was forced to cancel the drag event. But by
the next day, they’d reopened, offering a limited menu for customers.
Supporters came from all over, and were queued outside.

 Supporters came from all over? It sounds like most of them were not even from the village.

A week later,
Bendel-Sac received another blow—this time from the Lake in the Hills village
council. She got a letter notifying her that her business was not zoned for
entertainment events, and that if she continued to host such events she risked
fines and a suspension of her business and liquor licenses.

She tried to avoid playing by the same rules as everyone else. Typical for LGBT agitators and malcontents. They are so convinced that they are perennial victims, that they have a right to dishonor and ignore the rules.

Bendel-Sac was
furious. She posted a video to her Facebook, standing in front of the
boarded-up windows that had since been covered in supportive messages from the
community, explaining that two upcoming events— “Disney Karaoke” and ‘Resumé
Writing Workshop”— had been canceled because of local government’s threats. In
the video, she asked why, if she’d been holding events at the bakery for nearly
a year, was it the drag brunch that ultimately prompted Lake in the Hills to
take action. In a statement, the village said that they learned that Bendel-Sac
was improperly holding such events after she advertised the drag brunch and
“received strong negative criticism.”

It's shocking and sickening that anyone would go live and defend promoting a drag show on their property.

Bendel-Sac’s
video drew 32,000 views and attracted the attention of the ACLU’s Illinois
chapter, who helped her come to an agreement with local authorities. In early
August, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker visited the bakery and added his name to
the signatures covering the boarded-up windows.

Governor Pritzker is busy trying to cover up the fact that he is going to let thousands of violent felons out of county jails because he has all but gutted the bail laws in the state. So, to distract from his tough-on-law-abiding-citizens stance, he makes a visit to a bakery and shows his solidarity with drag queens.

Really.

And why is the ACLU going to great lengths to protect predators and perverts and creepy bakeries? I thought they wanted to protect the civil liberties of Americans?

“We must come
together to combat the rising tide of hate against our LGBTQ+ neighbors and
friends, including the recent hateful attacks at UpRising Bakery and Cafe,”
Pritzker said. “Hate has no home here.”

In reality, there has been nothing but hate from the very LGBT "community" which Pritzker, Corrina, and the rest of her sordid troop of sexual deviants. LGBT activists routinely destroy property, harm law-abiding citizens, and they want to poison the minds of little children. If that is not hate, I don't know what is.

From there,
Bendel-Sac began hosting drag events with increasing regularity. She said she
felt a responsibility to stand up to the hostile climate and show that she
wasn’t going to back down easily.

 The only ones who have backed down have been the village council, which refused to enforce their local ordinances.

“I am
admittedly a pretty stubborn person,” said Bendel-Sac. “If you’re going to
continue to hurt this community, and hurt these people, and not see the wrongs
you’re doing and the hate you’re perpetuating, then I’m going to use my
strength and my knowledge and my platform to fight back.”

 She needs to follow her own advice. The harm that Bendel-Sac is doing to the children and the parents who allow their kids to see drag queens is immeasurable. When does this perversion stop?

As the number
of protesters outside the bakery each weekend grows, so do the number of
counterprotesters. Some counterprotests have been organized by the local
Parasol Patrol chapter, which is a network of LGBTQ activists whose tactics
involve using rainbow umbrellas to create a division between far-right
agitators and whatever group or business they’re targeting.

More groomers. The protesters need to find out who these "Parasol Patrol" haters are, report them, and start exposing them as the predators that they are.

Local police,
who Bendel-Sac says have been very supportive, have been a near-constant
presence at the bakery and have started putting up barricades on weekends to
keep protesters and counterprotesters separate.

Bendel-Sac
fears the situation may continue to escalate. “Especially with elections coming
up, and tensions are rising every day, it’s pretty obvious,” said Bendel-Sac.
“Even the police are getting more irritated with it, and the community is for
sure. They live here and they’re tired of it, and now they’re starting to act
out too.” For example, Bendel-Sac has noticed that some residents have started
swearing at the protesters if they drive by, saying things like “Get the fuck
out,” “Grow the fuck up”, or “Get a fucking job.”

Bendel-Sac has
asked the counterprotesters to stay peaceful. “I go out there regularly and ask
the people on my side to make sure they are not interacting or fighting back
with words or anything else,” said Bendel-Sac. “Just pretend they’re not here.
Just pretend you’re here to party in rainbow and that’s it.”

Final Reflection

VICE News is trash. There is no avoiding the obvious. Why would anyone defend a creepy bakery run by an LGBT activist? On top of that, we know that the "reporting" has no merit to it, since they throw around "far-right" against anyone who opposes the systematic grooming of children.
VICE News is a party to this abuse, and we should not be afraid to say as much.
On top of all of this, the parents in Lake in the Hills should demand full enforcement of all zoning ordinances in the city. Why does a bakery get away with flouting the limits on entertainment in their business, while other businesses are expected to play by the rules? This is all wrong–ALL WRONG.
