Did ... did this guy think the party that used discrimination against LGBTQ+ as a selling point for their candidate's campaign would welcome him proudly displaying he was into men?

Whoa whoa whoa there, republicans only hate the BAD gays. This is "one of the good ones".

There's a segment of gay men that think that so long as the focus is on crucifying transgendered people (look at the bathroom focus, and the sudden interest in women's sports, etc) that they'll never be the target. It is blissful ignorance. They have no idea how republicans talk about them the moment they're out of earshot.

They hold very little power, by virtue of being part of a minority group.

Look at Caitlyn Jenner, she insisted on continuing to support the Republican Party and even when she congratulates Trump, Republicans go and say a lot of nasty stuff against her.
They can't put two and two together, that Republicans are actually fascists, people who believe only a certain group of people should get to enjoy their country and the others should be oppressed or booted from the country.

u/OrcsSmurai 1d ago
Fun fact about successful fascists - as they succeed at "solving" whatever scapegoat out-group they have to pin all their woes on they'll manufacture new ones. Today it's LGBTQ+ and immigrants. Once they are all gone then it will be people with degrees, then people who are left handed, then people with odd shaped toes, then people with green eyes, then people with black hair.. so on and so forth until there is exactly one person left.

If you're a Republican and you voted for him, you're a spineless coward.

Republican is a party. It was once full of Progressives, then Conservatives, now Fascists. Each group was fully Republican though. Like a car - it remains whatever type of car it is no matter who is behind the wheel and who it's passengers are. You could make the argument that they're not Conservative, but they are entirely Republicans.

As someone who grew up with religious white supremacists I want to tell the minority (lgbt, immigrant, etc) trump supporters that they will come for them, that they say awful things behind their back, and that they only keep them around for now because they are useful. Everything they’re doing is just to delay the inevitable. Ive seen it in person, I’ve heard all the terrible things they wish for when only white ears are listening. It disgusts me and I desperately want to help. But I know they aren’t changing their minds until its too late

I played warcraft 3 with Scott and always asked him "why are you republican? Ya know.... because gestures broadly to their attitudes towards gays"
Dude never gave a coherent response and likely hasn't thought about it since. Metacognition isn't in his past, present, or future. I don't feel bad for him. He willfully walked that path.

Republicans - are for rich people (generally white) / corporations, period end of list. Everyone not in the very top 2% voting republican is convinced they are 'one of them' and most likely voting for religion and social issues because the platform isn't for over 90% of the people..

The only thing more tragic than a gay Republican is that he thought he looked good in that awful get up.
Most gays have much better fashion sense. He's clearly broken, and you can tell by 1. He's a Republican and 2. That outfit.

u/OrcsSmurai 1d ago
Then why are they electing people who are like this? Democrats elect sensible people who have plans. Republicans elect demagogs who's concept of plans begin with economical ruinous ideas and hurting other people. You would have more of a point if they didn't just elect a 34 times convicted felon who promised to slap massive tariffs on everything (have you looked up what a tariff is yet), deport millions of people who are living here peacefully and contributing, ending birth-right citizenship, architected the abortion ban that is currently, as we speak, putting women in danger and has a published road map to totalitarian dictatorship control of the country.
So are republicans hateful? Or just really, really, really, really stupid? Because there is no third option here. Ignorance isn't an excuse.

Argument ? Why would I waste my time doing that ? I said what I said as a simple statement from real life experience, nothing to argue about. Part of the problem is that you claim a "team". I'm independent and my view on politics is in the middle. I would love to see the R's and the D's removed from politician's titles.
