I guess any members who were clear-eyed about rights already became Democrats.

Long ago I am sure

Oh yeah. I don't think people who value human rights were ever really tempted by that side, anyhow.

I remember being so confused around 2015 when I noticed an uptick in super gay people being vocally racist, misogynistic, and voting Republican. I know one who idolized Milo Yiannopoulos. Unfortunately, it seems to be mostly gay men falling prey to this rhetoric.

Not surprising. White gay men (statistically the biggest block in this group) have a long history of throwing the rest under the bus when its expedient to do so.

At first they came for the T's, but I didn't say anything because I wasn't a T.

Then they came for the B's, but I didn't say anything because I wasn't a B.....

A surprising amount of conservative tv shows include lesbian scenes. It’s a fetish for them.

I’m surprised they didn’t say it stood for Trump.

What, so no non-binaries either? Are we knocking gender identities off the list entirely and populating it with only sexual orientations? God, conservatives are so obsessed with dictating sex, gender, and reproductive rights for everyone else. Party of small government my ass.
