LGBTQ conservatives in the US are absolute morons.

    Oh that's simple. Let me help you with that. If you're LGBTQ then DeSantis wants you dead. Full stop. There are no "good ones" here, he'll gleefully order you all shot if he can.

    These people are the fffn stupidest people alive. How have they been mislead?? They literally vote for a party that...used hate-based politics against LGBT+ people for decades already???

    Conservative LGBTQ+ people make the mistake of thinking their richness or whiteness outweighs their LGBTQ+-ness in the eyes of their fellow conservatives.

    It does not. You are being kept around as a trophy. You are who they are referring to in "Some of my best friends are gay!"

    The instant it's no longer expedient to have a gay friend nearby, you'll be dumped.

    They were in the same place then as conservative LGBT+ people are now. There was no Final Solution yet. They didn't think they were those kind of Jews. And if the GOP gets their way and queer people start getting rounded up, they will realize they were those kind of queer people.

    I think people sometimes fail to realize the only reason LGBTQ folks are assumed to be liberal/left-leaning is because that's the only side that hasn't been advocating for at least light genocide for ages. It has nothing to do with being non-straight, and everything to do with historical/cultural context. So of course there are gay fascists. You can find idiots and assholes in any group.

    Reminds me of that Trump supporter who whined that "He’s not hurting the people he needs to be hurting."

    You will be surprised (or not) at how many LGBTQ people are just straight up racists that love the right wing policies. They just don’t realize (or care) that they are targets by those same groups too.

    How exactly were they misled? He's been pretty upfront about being a monster.

    Mariam-Webster definition of mislead:

    to lead in a wrong direction or into a mistaken action or belief often by deliberate deceit

    or;

    to lead astray : give a wrong impression

    Every single modern republican has been mislead.

    He's a Republican, did they think he was their friend?

    A lot of them probably did because the right openly accepted non-white and LGBTQ+ people into their ranks when they all banded together to oppose the lockdowns. They were absolutely right to do so then, but now the pendulum of oppression has swung the other way, so they'll abandon the right and go to the left until the left does something else insane.

    We desperately need an independent third party in the U.S.

    They absolutely did not accept non-white and LGBTQ people during COVID, the COVID era was the Trump Administration. Lockdowns were a Trump policy and it was specifically because he didn't do enough early enough to contain infections.

    When will conservatives from marginalised groups realise that the moment they are no longer useful or can be used as a wedge issue they will be thrown onto the pyre to burn?

    That's what happens when you're part of a Slugs For Salt movement...

    Gotta love the "Well, they wouldn't do that to me, I'm one of the good ones!" attitude these people take. Like, you weren't 'mislead' by DeathSentence, he told you exactly what he was going to do. Just because you thought you were safe because of the hat you wear doesn't mean you didn't know this was coming...

    Dean-Bailey, who is openly gay, said she was initially drawn to DeSantis’s candidacy by his criticism of pandemic-era lockdowns and mask mandates and his plans for the economy. “He really set himself apart as like, this future of the Republican Party,” she said. “This is somebody who can really kind of cross the political divide and work on those issues that are important.”

    A bunch of lunatics willing to die for their cause vs a bunch of rich people. Michael Corleone was right.

    What in the ever loving fuck are you on about. DeSantis banned Child Sex books, and told parents they deserve to know what their children are being taught.

    What has that got to do with being: Gay, Lesbian, or Bisexual?

    "Child sex books"

    What, in your own words, does this mean to you?
