Sorry Desantis, but I think Disney may have gotten the last laugh

    You routinely bash gay lifestyle. You routinely support gay censorship. I find that bashing to be hateful. I’m pretty sure a significant sum of posters here react to your posts similarly.

    It is entirely possible, indeed probable given your posting history, your disagrees and come on mans to a litany of posts supporting freedom of choice and lifestyle, that you are indeed a bigot who doesn’t realize he’s a bigot.

    Or, maybe you just like having fun acting like one in a blind message board.

    Either way, you have the freedoms to act the way you act and be viewed the way you’re viewed.

    I also don't think DeSantis has "fought their right to live a lifestyle" unless that lifestyle becomes the indoctrination of children by authority figures in school, or exposure to inappropriate sexual activity to children.

    DeSantis has not fought against the activities of consenting adults.

    If you think he has, I'd like to see evidence of that.

    Please show me where I routinely bash gays.
    I recall posting that no one deserves to be treated poorly. Especially to the point where they feel they need to hide or hurt themselves.
    It is possible you have me confused with another poster.
    I am a former counselor and a crisis center suicide preventionist.
    Judge me all you like. I have literally saved the lives of all walks of life.
    My guess is you wouldn’t know the difference between a bigot and a widget.

    You asked a question. "When have you seen a gay walking around you with his junk out?" I answered your question.

    Based only on all the anger and hate you display on this message board, I can't imagine anyone more ill-suited for that position. But maybe you are different in real life.

    I take it you missed all the positive ratings I gave other posters this morning.
    At least you’re consistent.

    It’s great to see you do good work, and thank you for that.

    That said, I’m not going to run through your over 4000 posts to show you what many conceive as unbridled bigotry. Suffice it to say, there is foundation for the perception in both posts you’ve made and the “disagrees” and “come on man’s” that you so, and excuse the next word that might be insulting, liberally dole.

    And again, I applaud everyone who makes society better through service and kindness. Thank you for that.

    The word hateful describes you A LOT better than it describes Bluke.

    Bluke is not hateful at all.

    I refer you to the very lengthy “DuhSantis” thread for many of his examples and actions.

    So in other words, you haven't ever seen it.

    Got it.

    No, you said should heard a rumor. You didn’t tell me when you saw it. There’s a difference, because my post was responding to an accusation that gays have a prevalence to show their junk. And your only “support” was a reference to an unsubstantiated rumor of an isolated event.

    How about this thread, based on his retaliation against Disney for their opposition to a law they view as oppressive. How about his legislation stripping any mention of gay discussion from K-12? How about his punishment against establishments who choose to have drag shows?

    You didn't read the question.

    That law is regarding the instruction of children and applies to all sexual orientations. The word gay is never mentioned.

    Again, instruction of children.

    To my knowledge, he's only punishing drag shows that were exposed or offered to children.

    You'll find thousands of more instances of heterosexual males exposing their "junk" to unwanted viewers such as unsuspecting women and children than you will of gays. But, hey, you found one example you kind of twisted around enough to sort of support your position so you should get a participation trophy.

    Condemned on a societal level.

    Celebrated or ignored by the left because it doesn't further a desired narrative.

    We have an entire thread over this. I understand your position, and how your side’s argument ignores the words, “sexual orientation”, and what that means. (And how many different sexual orientations are there in your understanding). Every aspect of the legislation is designed to attack gay lifestyle.

    If you truly believe the laws he enacts are neutral and benign, then you have your belief. The legion of facts and arguments against your belief that “my side” has articulated over and over, won’t sway you.

    We're back to "we have a whole thread discussing this."

    Give me one example of how anything he's done targets consenting adults. Not how it affects adults exposing kids to drag shows, adults indoctrinating kids in schools, or adults undermining a law that prohibits the indoctrination of kids in schools.
