I see it time and time again.

As soon as a family member comes out of the closet, they get all squishy.

“Being gay CAN’T be bad/sinful...my son/daughter/sister/brother is gay and they aren’t bad/sinful!”

Because your judgement is better than God’s. Right.

God doesn’t ask you to stop loving your gay relative. But you are to gently, lovingly try to discourage them from acting on their gay nature. If they chose to not have a relationship with you, that is the evil in them choosing sin over love.

And one of their first targets for repeated cancellation was— of all people—Republican icon Bob Hope, a comedian who (unlike today’s generation of streaming comics) did not think it was his job to offend anyone.
Here's another comedian from that era that "did not think it was his job to offend anyone".... onstage.

Half inuendo, half outright made up. Typical Nation agitprop.

Anita Bryant was the the first person cancelled by the left. She had a lucrative contract as the face of Sunkist, featured in all of their TV commercials. The left targeted her for her Biblical views on homosexuality and successfully got her fired. No mention of that in this propaganda piece.
