Look at all the homophobes (and yes, that's who you are - stop being a snowflake about it) ranting about LGBTQ people.
Again, it's none of your darned business about other people's lives. If you don't like same sex marriage, don't enter into a same sex union. But don't prevent other people from doing so, and don't use your hatred to prevent them from going about their jobs and lives.
You have to realize that this is about tribal psychology; the radical Right needs to demonize someone, and it can be LGBTQ or Liberals or Mexicans or immigrants or communists, whatever works at any given time. Populism always works best when there is a focus for their joined hatred.
Then don't get bent, when they throw it in my face and I throw it right back at them twice as hard and they run to their safe space of granted privilege.
Attacking someone because they don't accept you, is a hate crime. See, it is a two way street, until government gets involved.
Come on, we all know the double standard set by the left.
Another thread where the real bullies claim to be the victims. Turn off the Fox News are look at the issue objectively. In many parts of the country it's still very difficult to be openly gay and doing so carries with it a huge risk and social stigma. I live in one of them. Christian parents still throw their children to the streets for coming out of the closet.
I fear a time is coming where the LGBT community will be forced back into the closet or into conversion therapy by law with the alternative being the death penalty. That is the ultimate goal of religious conservatives.
I think the society depicted in A Handmaid's Tale is closer than many want to admit.

True, the loony limp wristed liberal snowflakes, demonize anyone that doesn't buy their entire catalog of Crazy. They will eat their own quick if they step out of line.

Their are choices in life. Own who you are and wear it like a badge of honor. Or let your conscious run your life.
Well, we never thought about the T's in LGBT until three or four years ago, so that's going to make some difference. While the G's and B's do stuff in private (and sometimes in public) that create health problems for the rest of us (proliferation of viruses, STD's, and antibiotic-resistant bacteria), everyone knows G's who by and large don't have any negative impact on one's personal life. In fact, most of us get along with and even like a lot of these G's. But the T thing is weird and especially scary for parents of young children. People don't choose to be G, but some people do choose to be T. And we must keep the pro-T propaganda away from our kids.
To the extent that T's make up a bigger share of the people we associate with the LGBTQ label, our "comfort and acceptance of LGBTQ people" is going to decline.
To anyone who doesnt know...this is Blaire White:
Blaire is trans...born as a male..could you even tell?
On the other hand,,this is Riley Dennis..
Another trans..born a male but NOW identifies as a transgendered lesbian (?) Despite doing very little at all to be a trans..but makes sure and browbeats anyone who dares questions his trans status. Again..identifies as a woman..who is a lesbian... And this guy (sorry, i will not call Riley a girl/ woman) actually says that misgendering someone is considered assault!

Actully, I don't call them homophobes. A phobia suggests fear and people who are homophobic really aren't scared. They're just intolerant jerks.
Don’t make your twisted “reality” everybody else’s business.
How, exactly, am I doing that?
