    Liberal, call them what you want. Someone claiming not to be homophobic but still uses gay as an insult about a group they dislike. Are there closeted republicans? Sure. All kinds of closeted people. Are they even close to being a majority in republican party? No, it’s mainly goddamn straight people. Fucking own up to it and stop trying to pin the awful actions of straight people on a few hypocritical fuckwits.

    Stop using gay as an insult if you truly don’t think there’s anything wrong with being gay. Challenge level impossible.

      They aren’t just hypocritical, the Republican platform and Project 2025 are explicitly anti-lgbt and in many cases working to actively injure that group as a whole, if not individually.

      The fact that specifically Grindr has traffic spikes around Republican conventions, rallies, or even weird funerals is notable, and the basis for a joke. Which is what this is, not homophobia.
