I legitimately don't understand why these groups exist. It's clear the GOP platform is antithetical to their very existence. And yet, they expect to be treated as equals by the party explicitly not wanting that.
Its selective blindness I think. They desperately want to be part of the party for whatever reason they convince themselves its not as bad as everyone says. I mean check this out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_of_German_National_Jews
Gotta capture every vote you can. Even from right leaning gay people.
A lot of it is just blindly going against peer pressure to be on the left, I think. Which is usually dumber than blindly following the crowd, which is already pretty dumb.
Some are absolutely those anti-everything types, but I think most Republicans are just single issue voters with big blinders on so I expect they're probably the same.
