Pattie Gonia (dba) has intentionally for the purpose of individual enrichment and profit, without disclosure of intent business practices or consent, and with full knowledge of the earned, historic, social, trauma, financial, protective worth of the words and designations toward personal financial gain,  at great risk to the aggrieved communities and society at large (note mid term primaries 2026) utilized the art form and honorific DRAG and “advocate” this exploitation has led to community fracture, suppression of the voices and concerns of the exploited, loss of voice and platform.

Wyn Wiley (cis white gay man) created a persona for profit Pattie Gonia under the umbrella of the Art of DRAG, affording him the platform, history, assumption of best intent, and the privileges and protections commiserate with the use of the honorific. DRAG is the most associated, honored , historic, and protected art form of the LGBTQIA community.

All DRAG performers use thier platform form advocacy, it is an inherent portion of the art. That advocacy is unidirectional the artist uses their platform to advocate. DRAG artist and the LGBTQIA community realize the critical importance of this structure and value of the art and the community 

Wyn pulled a Missy Elliott and reversed the model, he built his for profit business from the communities, used their reputations and good will to generate profit. That is exploitation.

Wyn then used the word “advocacy” to leverage the value, voice, platforms, community of the LGBTQIA, environmental and social justice causes he appropriated to profit, and exploit brands.

Wyn, knowingly and by his own manipulation, launched Pattie Gonia 6 days before PRIDE and 12 days before the midterm primary election to steal the voice, platform, attention knowing potential  gain to him, and well aware of the  impact to the community, suppressed voices from the marginalized LGBTQIA community, launched a pre planned PR attack with the community was in somatic distress.

Meeting these demands grants no immunity from civil or criminal prosecution, but they will go a wee way to Wyn taking responsibility and accountability for his harm:

1. Fundraising: DBA notes $4.5 million raised for advocacy, full accounting which 501, admin costs etc. 
2. PR / Media- Each media outlet used in campaign full time (not retraction) dedicated to personal, business, community gain and harm through exploitation
3. immediately publicly discontinue use of DRAG and “advocacy” personally, professionally and for profit.
