    I don’t think you know what the word hypocrite means.

      Striving for equality and acceptance by promoting hate towards others beliefs. Yes, I’d say that is hypocritical. What word would you use to describe them?

        Hate towards beiefs is fine, and I think you’d even agree with that. Would you agree it’s bad to believe that a subset groups of people should be removed from the world? I would hope you agree that that is a bad belief and doesn’t need to be accepted.

        But it’s also missing the point. Being gay isn’t a belief, it’s just the way someone is - just like race, just like gender. It’s not a belief like a political stance is.

        They’re two different things and it’s not hypocritical to treat them differently.

          This is just code for bigotry. I don’t have the mood necessary for politely explaining it so I won’t.

            Yes, I know the phrase “hate the sin not the sinner” is just code for christian hate. I was riffing off of that to put it back on them along with the theme of the OP.
