Peter Thiel, one of the top GOP funders (and likely reason for JD Vance pick) is openly gay. Of course for him the reasoning is simple: he has a lot of money and wants policies that favor people with a lot of money. I’ve known a number of rich people in my life, and many (not all) have bought into a sort of wealthy identity, thinking of wealthy people as superior to non-wealthy people, and that the ideal social structure is a rigid hierarchy where the “deserving” are rewarded with luxuries and the “inferior” working class deserves a life of cheap labor. Psychological incentives strongly encourage this, because otherwise these people would have to believe they are getting more than they deserve, and that they themselves are too weakened by a life of luxury to be as supportive of the as fortunate than they should be. Accordingly, this identity can be more powerful than something like gay identity.
ah, so, apparently, fascism is caused by decades of sexual oppression, denial, and self-hatred erupting and being directed outward at others.
this would be far more interesting if it didn’t also mean the downfall of democracy.
I just listened to a Behind the Bastards episode where basically…yeah, that’s been the prevailing theory.
Nazis should literally go fuck themselves
Yep, no one else will.
That’s a part of it for sure but there’s a lot more going on also:
Wait hold on
Why would cucks bother them? Isn’t that like a conservative thing?
Am I seriously missing something here?
Honestly, I’m even more confused now. White supremacists were using it against “RINOs”
The original insult makes sense in that context (man who’s spouse is unfaithful), but in this diagram it was listed with oppression of identity and sexuality. The only way my brain seems to interpret that is by assuming the word is used in its fetish form which makes even less sense to me
In the diagram you can substitute that word for any non-mainstream sexual or gender thing. It really doesn’t matter what - they’ll scapegoat anything as long as it’s a minority, elicits disgust from the in-crowd and reinforces any of the things it connects to with dashed lines.
Pedophilia is a good one because it relates to ‘defending women & children’, makes the enemy look weak, causes sexual anxiety and elicits [disgust](https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=conservatives disgust morality&addon=firefox&addonversion=4.1.2&method=topbar). Hence ‘[Save the children](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=qanon %27save the children%27&t=h_&ia=web)’ and all that.
The diagram maps the *conceptual* framework behind it all - it’s best not to get too literal about any of the individual words.
I’ll never understand it. Just put on sunglasses and a hat and go check out Pride once. Watch gay people be out and proud and happy and accepting.
“But I’m not gay! I’m straight! … I just sometimes like sucking cock is all. That’s not gay!”
Literally what most people on Grindr are like in my area.

“But I’m not gay! I’m straight! … I just sometimes like sucking cock is all. That’s not gay!”
“I convinced myself I was gay when I was a kid”.
Well congrats, bud: you also convinced me you were gay when you were an adult.
Love this!!! Perhaps I should post this in conservative Reddit. 🧐
Enjoy your immediate ban

So you’re saying program a bot network to keep posting this article on r/conservative?
