"Socially conservative Muslims have criticized what they see as growing LGBTQ+ "indoctrination" in schools and society more broadly."

Fanatical Muslims have the same values as MAGA Republicans?

What a koinkydink!

"Muslims are far more conservative than most other religions."

Are you saying homophobia is a conservative value?

People for the most part are not homophobic. They just don't agree with it or accept it.
Doesnt mean they are "phobic".

What do you mean, "They just don't agree with it?"
How can you disagree with homosexuality?
Are they saying homosexuality... does not exist?
No, they're saying they don't want gays to exist in their society.
Just like anti-Semites don't want Jews to exist in their society.

Back to your comment: What term do you prefer to describe people who want to criminalize being homosexual? Since homophobic doesn't work for you.

Now, mot all Jews are Semites, and not all Semites are Jews

Do you have a problem with Anti-Semitic meaning Jew Hater, Like homophobic means Gay Hater?

People for the most part are not homophobic. They just don't agree with it or accept it.
Doesnt mean they are "phobic".
It's that type of disingenuousness that hurts the liberal cause.

I'm not really seeing the difference as a practical matter.

But I also think you're wrong.

Most of the anti gay rhetoric you guys spew is in fact rooted in fear.

You project your fear into what the gays will do to the children.

You fear children being turned gay.

And that's homophobia.

Censored has yet to learn that posting the same dumbass meme in the face of a deliberate policy of starving children is not a good look

It's a good look to him.
He thinks they deserve to starve.

"People for the most part are not homophobic. They just don't agree with it or accept it."

Except...

That's actually the dictionary definition of homophobia.

2. A strong dislike or fear of homosexuals, especially to an unreasonable degree.
3. Fear, dislike, or hate of homosexuals.

It gets funnier every time I read it.

Why?
What's so funny about homophobia and backstabbing?

Oh, I get it.
You and Boaz are sidung with the Muslims on this one!

All three of that "definition" have "fear" in them.
No one fears homo's.

OH, but you absolutely do,
When the people you call homos
Are in drag and reading stories to kids.
You think that's a huge threat to children.
You fear for the children.

"No one fears homo's."
Yes, some really do fear homos.
Despite this surge from this faction of people...I think we've made progress in this area.
but I remember candid conversations not all that long ago between people expressing their "fear" of homos recruiting kids to be gay.

See Boaz?
Even Eberly gets it.
You have to protect the children from scary homos.

No one fears homo's.

It's hilarious to hear a grown Republican man pretend he doesn't know what

Fun fact:
The scariest thing imaginable for Conservative men is that they are gay.
The second scariest is that their kid is gay.
Ask BillJohnson for details.
