I’m getting so tired of the homophobia from the ā€˜left’. But please, make a hundred more posts about how some right wing politician loves cock because they support Trump. That’s not a sentiment that needs to be examined at all 🫩

(This is not an invitation to tell me how that’s not akchully about gay people or to drag out a handful of gay republicans to complain about, when you know people do it for the straight ones too.)

    I reject the premise that there aren’t numerically more fucked up repressed straight people than gay ones. Defaulting to ā€˜this dude is a sexual weirdo, must be gay’ is also homophobia.

    I agree. It’s the hypocrisy. Being gay here is incidental, it’s just one manifestation of the whole ā€œthis is unacceptable, we need [outrageous measure]ā€ and then they get exposed for doing exactly what they were complaining about.
