      Alright okay, I get it now. But it’s still (imo) eh, because it calls back to the “gay haters are gay” thing which I don’t think is great. Do you get what I mean?

              that sounds a tad homophobic

              no u

              You make a strong case. But using them being closeted gay as an attack does have a bad connotation. Just saying that some gay people strongly dislike such stuff.

                the only person talking about being gay is you, nazi.

                the OC said blacked.

                The father is accused of enjoying watching black heterosexual men have sex with white heterosexual women.

                get that cum out from your eyes and read.

                  I said it has the same negative connotation. You disagreed about the negative connotation of calling homophobes closeted gays, which you are of course free to do, even though you’re are or course wrong there.

                  There’s really no need for you to be this upset.
