How so many seem to overlook blatant scenarios like this with some nose-in-the-air moral superiority complex.
This is every bit as evil, as Nazi-fied and stupid as the racial discrimination systemic violence, yet tends to get overlooked. How many cases like this one does it take, before it's wrong?
Now and then I used to post some LGBTQ pride stuff on broader audience websites. Of course, it would garner some anti-gay remarks from some "morally superior" jagoff, often containing some reference to a gay sexual act. When I'd turn the tables on them, and ask how they would like some sexual act speculation into their own sexuality posted publicly, it turned some heads.
I've been so inactive about LGBTQ issues lately, focused on my hospital work and what I can do for our immediate community.
But now and then I need to be among my LGBTQ brothers and sisters. Some sort of online substitutes just won't do.
I only know both Trump and Bolsonaro deserve a great, big, loud FUCK YOU from all of us.

Not letting Trump off the hook because the buck stops with him, but he had no history of this.

When it comes to the "religious" stuff it's Pence calling the shots.

You may recall Pence was put on the ticket because the religious types were suspicious of Trump.
