Don't wanna burst your bubble but there are plenty of gay conservatives out there.

Well, everything he said kinda fits though. Just ‘cause you’re gay, don’t mean you’re liberal.
SwagicalYololord
Seeing as how conservatives are actively trying to limit/remove gay rights, they might want to reconsider their ideology.
I would say the same for 98% of the US population. About conservatives robbing them of their rights. Yet here we are, making America great
Vergenbuurg
Considering how many strict-conservative, LGBTQ+-hating firebrands have been caught with male lovers, this is actually appropriate.

Being right wing doesn't make you anti gay. Fun fact. Politics is a spectrum. Just because you aren't radical left, doesn't make you a Nazi.
Right wing is closer to fascist/Nazi. Left wing is closer to communist.
Yes. Obviously. But it still doesn't change a thing. Being centre of right doesn't mean you want to gas Jewish people, for example.
there's a HUGE difference between slightly right and extremist.
Very true.

They should stop electing those who want to remove/limit gay rights if they disagree with removing and limiting gay rights then.

No, it's just cowboys, guns, steeds, wilderness, and not a city dwelling liberal in sight.

I understand the spirit of your statement, but not it's practical application. I will never support nazi idealology as a political opinion.
You don't have to support it, I certainly don't, but if they're not actively harming someone it's their right to believe it.
ZombieJonSnow
Ummm thats an unsafe blanket statement.
Political OPINION. You can think Nazis are just fine (you'd be a douche), but if you don't start rounding up people it's your right.
I never understood that phrase... aren't blankets supposed to be safe- like when we were kids they were 1/2

-reexamine the political landscape nowadays, i mean... personally i dont see fundamentalist christians heading up the conservatives. it -
awwwshet
That’s the same logic that supports the idea that every African American is a gang banging cop killer and every white person is racist.
That said, there are still conservative groups seeking to eliminate or limit LGBTQ+ rights in America. Are you going to deny that fact?
Did I say "every conservative?" Nope. "Every" is a determiner that you added.
Yeah...seeing as how this went over your head I’m not gonna waste my time. Good luck mate.
i didnt load more, but i'm pretty sure "every" isn't the heart of his message. more like judging groups of ppl based on the past... idk, idc

Yes, but the people who believe these things overwhelmingly do not condone homosexuality. Common sense says this was a targeted troll.

NotTheNationionalSecurityAgency
I believe these things, and I have zero problems with sexuality. Why can’t the OC?
I guess I more mean that people who have problems with sexuality are hard right conservatives who share this view. So this is a targeted
troll at that specific group. And you have to admit, the hurdles faced by lgbt were out there by conservatives who often echo these views.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
Thesoundtamer
Just want to say. That's a bit of a generalisation.
There are people who are homophobic in every facet of life.
A homophobic person is far far far far more likely to be a conservative. Almost all of the hurdles lgbt has faced are from the right.
All of the political stances contain homophobia. Just as racism is everywhere. In not denying there's a larger concentration in right wing
