I see your ass, 'ally'.

[CW: all the isms] See also: liberals doing homophobia, , racism, body shaming, ableism etc if the target is a conservative. "Teehee Putin kissing Trump photoshops are funny!", "Rednecks are dumb!", "Mitch McConnell is ugly!" "Dumb black/trans/woman siding with conservatives deserves leopards eating their face!"

Remember, conservatives are bad because they're dangerous to human well being, not because they're gay, a woman or ugly.

    I've heard it fittingly described that conservatives that call gay people "unnatural" or "gross" or "dgnrate" are simply homophobes, and it is instead the conservatives that emphasize that "it is a choice" and that people should "choose to be straight" that have a good shot at being closeted in some way.

      Some of that talking point originally came from proponents of conversion therapy who were simply wielding pseudoscience as a way to own the libs, but there are indeed now people who were raised with this notion and either repressed their queerness or who just straight up had conversion therapy forced on them. Steven Crowder is the first to come to mind for me.
