Aside from any true debate over the consequences of homosexuality, the left adroitly exploits these tiny groups in order to disupt social order and foment unrest in a society. The number of radical feminists is very small also, the same for disenchanted blacks and hispanics. Yet, the left, small group themselves, trumpets each of their causes as if they are all national crises. The gullible buy it and small groups increase their power disproportionately.
That is why they need political correctness, to have a reason to shout down voices of reason as insensitive so the the charade by a few can dominate the many.
[T]he left adroitly exploits these tiny groups in order to disrupt social order and foment unrest in a society. I think you’ve captured the essence at the very core of leftist thought. They are trying to mirror in society the chaos that inhabits their own brains. As you later point out, reason is the enemy to the left. A powerful weapon used by the rest of society that can’t possibly be comprehended by the liberal mind.
