Quote:These gay pride activists were bewildered at the idea of a gay person voting for Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis.

They talk about inclusion and yet they are so closed minded.

A colleague of mine is a life-long Republican and raves about Ron DeSantis. He and I had a discussion many years ago where he basically summed it up by saying being a free market, fiscal conservative does not conflict with who is attracted to.

I never understood the anti-gay rhetoric that the left spouted about Trump.

They hate him because they want to date him.

They said he was Anti Semitic too. So he hates his daughter and her family.

DOH !!!

Classic example of imprinting the beliefs of someone's supporters on the individual even though one has nothing to do with the other.

Most Trump supporters aren't anti-gay bigots, but I'd wager most anti-gay bigots are Trump supporters. Same goes for anti-Semites. While Trump never espoused anti-semite rhetoric because people that do generally fall in line at the extreme of conservatives Trump automatically was. Same goes for racists and xenophobia. Trump became the symbol of every boogeyman the left had in their closet, when in reality he is a 90s Democrat.

An example of an anti-gay bigot is Joy Reid. And the Joy Reids of the world arent Trump supporters.

Oh don't get me wrong, there are most definitely anti-gay people on the left. The true war brewing is between liberal feminists and trans activist. Sooner or later those two are going to figure out they can't coexist.

Sooner or later every sub-set of our society is going to figure out they can't coexist as each of them demands special treatment. None of it was ever about equality. But surely the most puzzling is the irrational support the trans community enjoys from women and women's groups as the former tries to erase the latter.

I see what you did there - Well done sir!

I'd wager the largest population of anti-semites are Democrats, specifically the large Muslim populations in major cities...New York, Minneapolis, etc and they far outnumber conservatives who actively express anti-semitism. I've always been perplexed by this myth that conservatives are anti-semites. I've lived in the South my entire life and not once have I ever heard anyone express anti-semitism, in fact, it's the opposite. Support for Israel is huge among those in the Christian community.

I'd wager anti-gay bigotry follows the same pattern.

The only references to anti-semitism that may apply is neo-Nazi's and they are .00000001% of the population and aren't really conservative. They're just a tiny fringe group with mental problems.

They're Anti-X" is the only play in their playbook

Shocking, but there are people who actually want to known for their views, values and accomplishments as opposed to their physical traits and/or sexuality. For example, if I was a gay man I would much rather be known as the guy who owns a HVAC business who enjoys rec flag football instead of as the "gay friend"....

My eye doctor who retired and moved to Dallas with his partner wasn't a flaming maricon (homosexual). He never flaunted his gayness and if you didn't know much about him you wouldn't even suspect it. I think gays should take example of him. To some flaunting it is showing that you're proud of being gay. I can't see why they would be proud of their sinfulness, really.

Stupid people...
