White overrides a lot of things. Gay can certainly be one of them.

When what you want is acceptance maybe the people who reject that as a value aren't the ones?

everything in politics is appealing to our greater selves or our lesser selves

tragically, appealing to our lesser selves is something that works way too often

If you are a member of any group that is, or has been targeted in this country just for existing as who you are... you can't trust people who target people for no reason over things like this.

If they will dismiss all black people or all Muslims they will dismiss you to at some later date because there isn't logic or reason behind such whims.

May i introduce you to Alice Weidel? I'm still not sure, what happened there, but the co-chairwoman of the racist, anti-feminist, anti-lgbtq, extreme-right, German afd (and leader of their parliamentary group) is a gay women, that has two adopted children with a women from Sri Lanka.

I mean, she is certainly doing her part in spewing hate, but I still can't wrap my head around it...

@benroyce They struggle in the party of hate that they want to hate in because while they hate, they’re one of the hated groups. The Log Cabins are sad fuckers.

divide and conquer is one the greatest tactics of hate and fascism: you go after the poor. you go after black people. you go after gay people. you go after trans

and each time there is enough hate in one of those othered groups that you bizarrely pick up support in that group

poor people who hate black people. black people who hate gay people. trans who hate the poor. etc., etc

hate unfortunately works in politics, and long as it does, it's a heavy slog

@benroyce Yep. That’s why they work so hard to keep all of us apart.

@benroyce @StillIRise1963 The Texas GOP? Deeply and irreconcilably homophobic? How could they have possibly foreseen this?

@joby It’s just pathetic to want to hate so badly with your haters.
