But he's a good Christian!

If an avowed homophobe turns out to be gay, they should absolutely be called out for their hypocrisy.

I think pointing out the hypocrisy of these people is good overall. I don't think it is saying being gay and giving blow jobs as a man is bad. It is saying someone that is opposing the rights of gay people getting caught having some sort of gay sexual acts shows how ridiculous it is to be against the rights of others to be gay.

It just to show the hipocrisy. Republicans oppose everything homosexual but at the sane time show that it is something some still partake in. If anything, it shows that being a republican is hiding yourself. Giving a blowjob to men is what he opposes, but what he apparently enjoys. The blowjob itself is not the subject of the post.

Yes.

The shaming part is that he is gay / bi and is using his power to erase / subjugate the LGBTQ groups

He's a fucking hypocrite

I mean, the power dynamic here of having sexy times with your employee isn't great either.

Yes, you’re being overly sensitive here.

The negative thing on display isn’t the blowjob, it’s the harm he causes to others while himself engaging in the very acts he attacks.

No, there is something wrong with being a hypocrite

Yes. It's pointing out the hypocrisy of the oxygen theif.

you are completely misrepresenting the story... the entire point is that he is a hypocrite, the fact that he is a hypocrite about being gay is completely irrelevant

If some idiot spent his life trying to make rollercoasters illegal, and then was photographed on a roller coaster have a great time, what moral value would you give to "Anti-coaster polician caught on video riding coaster."

The headline is highlighting that the guy is a hypocrite. If it just said "Politician is a Hypocrite." Basically everyone would be like "wtf is this article is about? How is he a hypocrite? Who wrote this uninformative headline?

I think so. It's the double standards and the gross hypocrisy that make the story.

I didn't even think about him being gay, or connote it with being gay.

I don't know, without the religious fruitcake stuff he sounds like a cool dude.

It's like you missed the context completely. What is also written is "who opposes LGBT"

I will take the hot take devil's advocate position, and mostly agree with this. I'm not sure it really does too much to call out these clowns for their hypocrisy, other than make everyone sort of, feel better about their own preconcieved political dispositions, and dunk on a homophobe. The people who support these freaks are operating on a different sort of framework. Often it's not straight up denialism as much as it is like, some sort of idiotic conception about the fall of western culture, or about god punishing the wicked from some shit that's stupidly cited in leviticus, or paul being an asexual rapture doomer.

I think the only way that this is really like, blown, bu dum tsss, blown up into a larger issue, right, at least, for libs, rather than being like, a one-off easy dunk case, is if we maybe extrapolate that all, or a large portion, of these homophobic crusaders is also just super closeted gay dudes. I don't know whether or not that's the case, like disproportionately, right, but I think it's probably not good to sort of, operate on that assumption, or extrapolate this to be the case, based on these kinds of incidents. I dunno, guys, he could be bisexual, he could be bi. This would be typical bisexual behavior, honestly. And, is it gay to be bisexual, fellas?

In any case, I mostly hate this dude more for the fact that he's a homophobic shitbag, more than the fact that he's giving someone a blowie. The blowie is probably his best quality, I would say. You think his head game is strong, or not? Be honest now, I don't wanna hear that his political views prevent him from giving good head, if that were the case then bipolar sacred geometry crystal girlfriends would be out of business.

People seem to have weirdly missed that the person he sexually assaulted was an employee of his farm. Would you like your job to depend on receiving your boss' secret blowjobs? (Quit answering yes you fucking perverts!)

He isn't just a hypocrit, like all Republicans politicians rich people he abuses his power to extract whatever demeaning things he wants from other people, starting with their underpriced labor and apparently moving on to also extracting their seed directly as well.
