I tried suggesting this the other day and a bunch of people argued “no, saying all homophobes are queer does not mean queer people are responsible for their own bigotry” despite it meaning exactly that.

My favorites were the ones who thought saying “everyone is queer, it’s on a spectrum” somehow changed that implication.

And their “evidence” was “look at all the homophobes who turned out to be gay” as if that was the vast majority of the bigots.

Also, my saying things like “you could argue that everyone is a little disabled and therefore all ableists are self-hating disabled people” got me told that’s different. Not how it was different though.

All I know is that it’s only ever queer people who get blamed for their own bigotry.
