Yeah, the 'slippery slope' comment has gotten insane traction. Everything is being laid at the feet of same-sex attracted folks, because too many of us are letting the trans-lobby and their grooming kink attach it to LGB. And honestly, are they wrong? We're a sub of like 2k people, and there's small groups like LGBAlliance popping up here and there, but our numbers are DWARFED by trans lobby "allies". If you were a normie online, would you believe that the child grooming and gender theory bullshit is apart from LGB or together?

Another one I see being posted around again is this image which, to be fair, is kinda funny in a black-pilled kind of way. I mean a lot of those are dangerously close to happening, if they haven't already, and their biggest proponents are all the same TQ+ group that now represents us same-sex attracted folk on the world stage.

I don't buy into any of this shit, obviously, but it's not hard to see why so many zealots who were against gay marriage all those years ago would.

This sub was way bigger before we were forced to move to Saidit, though. It was at like 19k members or something. SuperStraight was like 20k+ or something before they got banned, and that was in a matter of a week or so. That's with the entirety of social media bashing our ideas, too.

I do hear you, pro-trans LGB voices definitely dominate mainstream news more than drop-the-T LGB voices do. But are there really fewer people in our camp? There are no numbers on that, AFAIK, so I think it's premature to conclude that.

Honestly, I would love to get some sort of survey data on how many people a) describe themselves as bisexual/homosexual, AND b) actually understand what those words mean. Hell, maybe I could try to make something and post it on Reddit... that would be a useful resource...

Okay, a third world war, plagues, and terrorists are not the fault of LGB people. The "schools will begin teaching kids to have gay sex" one unfortunately is happening in some places-- and it shouldn't. But again, is that the fault of actual LGB people, or the bored straight people / postmodernist p*dophilia enthusiasts who like to LARP as us?

I know it's all skewed optics, but at some point we need to stop trying to 'be nice'. I'm not a Christian, I was never one to turn the other cheek, I am perfectly happy to get down in the muck right alongside them. My position is odd as, for the first time in my life, my political or societal discussions frequently pair me alongside Conservatives and Republicans, and from that point of view I hear FAR more homophobic shit, and it's just disconcerting that I hear this 'slippery slope' argument so often and apart from a few small Twitter accounts I have nothing to repudiate their accusations. Part of that is any voices that rise up, like the Gays Against Grooming Twitter account, go against the establishment and are summarily silenced, but most people are just too damned passive. They are so afraid of being called some horrific 'phobic' name.

"Well, of course I think everyone should be accepted for who and what they are. That's the civilized thing to do."
"So you're fine with sex offenders having access to your children away from you? Excellent!"
"Wait, what?"

Okay, a third world war, plagues, and terrorists are not the fault of LGB people.

Oh I know, but it IS kinda hilarious that most of those are happening at this moment, and being applauded along by the same people who voted for gay marriage. I'm not about to just up and say 'they are right, I will no longer be attracted to men' or anything, but it's easy to see many avenues they can take from these outrageous outcomes that bring them all to the same group and conclusion. It's easy to see, for me at least, why they lay all of this at the feet of the LGB community.

Still a very dumb meme.

Armed conflicts in developing contries have been a thing way before gay marriage passed, as were infectious diseases and terrorism.

The fact that the same party who voted gay marriage is cheering said conflicts is no surprise either, as the US is a two party system, so that's to be expected.

Let's also remember that neoconservatives were also very happy to cheer on pointless conflicts on their time as well.
