so you’d rather be lied to and told everything is “o-gay” instead of them showing who they really are and you get to choose who you support?
Not a gay person but generally people usually prefer people try to be nice rather than openly hostile.
know what you get when you allow yourself to be represented by fools?
you’re made into a clown.
I think when there’s implicit consensus on a topic, it disempowers people who disagree from speaking out openly. Anytime someone speaks out, there’s always a chance that anyone sitting on the fence would agree with them. I think that while rainbow washing was a flimsy shield, it was still a shield against bigotry because of the implied consensus of support and the disempowering of bigots from speaking out and potentially swaying anyone still on the fence.
