Let’s be honest here. There are many liberals, numerous on other forums, that hate gay people.
Is there a point?
Hate is a harsh word.
I don’t hate gays, but I disapprove of their lifestyle. As a conservative, they have a right to live their life as they see fit. It’s that pesky freedom thing.
And, when I see a member of this board, who hates gays, shoot down 49 of them, I’ll believe you.
Conservatives, as if they were some kind of groupthink entity, do not “hate” gays. What they hate is the constant insertion, into every form of entertainment and into much of the news about the world, of the belief that gays or the LGBT community as a whole, have a much greater influence than their actual numbers would imply. As a collection of individuals, the LGBT community does not contribute in much greater measure than any other demographic, and perhaps less than some in terms of thinking about consequences for the future.
LGBT is essentially a study in sterility, and as such, leads to something of a dead end in the constantly evolving social dynamic of humanity. Oh, some few of them may actually end up reproducing, but in nowhere near the numbers that heterosexual pairings do, and only with a great deal of artificial assistance. So many of the concerns that affect most of the rest of the population do not, cannot concern them to very much of a degree.
