    How many of them do you talk to though? They certainly exsist, so seeking one out to talk about their experiences and views with might help you understand where they come from, even if you disagree with them.

      I know a lot of people in the LGBTQ community. I have yet to meet someone who would vote for a Republican. But I’ll certainly ask about it if I ever meet one.

        I’m not surprised. Since the LGBTQ community is fairly political, they’re not very accepting of LGBTQ people who don’t align with them politically. There are lots of LGBTQ people who don’t want to be part of the community because of how rigid it is in that regard.

        These are what the LGBT people that I’ve met has said specifically.

        Other than that, it’s likely that there are some who lean conservative but don’t speak up about it for fear of being shunned by the community.

          The LGBTQ community is being assailed by the GOP at the moment. Literal physical threats. Whatever was left of support for the GOP from that community is quickly dissipating.

            I don’t know if you’ve misunderstood, but I’m not a conservative, I just enjoy having political discussions with them, especially when they seem to be a contradiction in today’s world of party-line politics.

              I understand. I also enjoy a good debate with people who see things differently. Broadens the horizon. But it has become increasingly difficult to discuss things with conservatives. Seems like things go in the gutter real quick these days. Seems Trump’s presidency was a clear turning point for reasonable debate in this country.
