Republicans are very anti-gay and people who are supposedly our allies trying to paint the republicans as gay is a bit tiring. It’s straight people running the anti gay crusade. It’s not self-loathing, just loathing. Heck, most of the time it’s not even loathing, it’s just a convenient out group to rally around. “Who are we? Well, at least we’re not gay”. But if you think misogyny, transphobia, homophobia all those things are fine as long as it’s directed towards people who voted for the wrong party then I am not going to convince you and you are not going to convince me.
