Certain types of Freepers, from all parts of the country, reject the social engineering that Hollywood has attempted relating to homosexuals. Meaning that the social engineering hasn't been entirely effective.

And this is a BAD thing, how???

I think we were talking about making juvenile "fag" jokes in response to an emergency situation in San Francisco that resulted in an unfortuante woman being sent to a burn unit.
However one feels about the homosexual agenda, such behavior is boorish and stupid.

I think the point is that some conservatives say or write things in a manner that feeds the negative stereotypes that Hollywood seeks to create. Substance is what matters, but style points are important, too.
Being a successful conservative in the arena of ideas requires more than believing the right things, but being able to communicate them without giving the opponents an easy opening.
