We all should be spending more time gobbling cock 🤘
But slobbing the corporate knob is how they became a politician
professionally gay
life’s too short
they should just be gay recreationally
I hate that we live in a time period where anti-gay politicians are around AND get votes
We're still no better than back when we discriminated against left handed people
Like, are we always going to be fucking stupid? In 500 years are they going to be voting on a furry segregation bill while a meteor the size of Estonia is barrelling towards earth?
Bruh, on election night a Jew from Jews for Trump complained antisemites were at the victory party, too.
How many dumb as fuck old people vote for Republicans that will cut social security?
How many Hispanics (even fucking undocumented) supported Trump because he'd keep illegals out?
How many obese straight white men over 40 railed against DEI that will be laid off because they're old? Dropped from insurance because they're fat? Have their taxes raised because they're low earners hit harder by regressive structures?
I have seen basically every group targeted by Republicans for the last 40 years send its dumbest motherfuckers to support Trump with zero self awareness.
Americans are irredeemably stupid, weak, and worthless.
People brought up to hate gay and who are in fact gay fight their feelings every day and think everybody else has the same internal fight so they think being tough is the only way to remove the seduction.
Id bet good money the 'choice' to be gay that they constantly talk about comes from bisexual puritans that can't understand they aren't ever single human that ever existed.
This was hilarious 😂😂😂
This is homiphobic propaganda.
The idea that a majority of homophones are self hating gay people exists only to absolve straight people of guilt.
Statistically it is not supported.
We aren’t talking about the majority of homophobes; we’re talking about homophobic lawmakers who push for anti-gay legislation - already performative of “banning” or “being tough on” their other “sins” like drugs or crime, and they keep getting caught doing drugs and gay things.
Statistically there are far fewer politicians than LGBTQA folks. So when some sociopath rises to power because they figured out they should be “tough” on all the things people hurt them for, all the things people appear to dislike, you’re not gonna get people with empathy who speak about a brighter inclusive future, you’re gonna get bullshit artists who draw on their own pain and twist it into a performance of what, in their mind, people seem to want. They prey on the prejudices of the masses.
And it works. The anti-drug politicians get caught with coke and speed. The anti-sex worker politicians get caught with prostitutes. The “save the children” freaks get caught with underage kids. The “fiscally responsible” get caught insider trading and money laundering. And the homophobes get caught with men.
Because the biggest flaw of democracy is to allow a person to deflect all the hatred they receive back out into the world and if they can perform it charismatically enough, they can use it to rise to power. Hell look at Trump, that’s how his superpower works. He can shit talk anything, and it fucking works on just enough people that it’s always been worth it for him to do it.
So if you are someone who sees the “anti-LGBTQA politicians are always closeted!” (or, are someone who is using/making jokes with it!) and it upsets you - make sure you understand that it’s not a comment on LGBTQA folks as a whole, it’s a remark about how society who’s majority is empathetic (normal humans) yet prejudiced (unfortunately currently also normal humans) will elect people who speak from their pain, and those abused by it will exploit their suffering to give that crowd exactly what they want.
The sociopath cornered into being closeted their whole life will scream from the rooftops about banning homosexuality, because not only did people stop hurting them but now have rewarded them greatly.
So no, the majority of homophobes are not closeted. But I’m willing to believe that doesn’t hold up in Washington.
Exactly. It's blaming gay people for gay people problems. Akin to joking about masculine features on transphobic women. Doing the thing ironically is still doing the thing.
