Being a leftist is bigger than fukking gay and trans people.
The thing is when people say the left they are often including liberals.
Many do not differentiate anymore, even I sometimes mistakenly conform.
And even if LGBTQ is not the biggest thing it does seem like it is, and perception is reality, Most especially in politics and even more especially in american politics in the social media era.
Another thing you gotta keep in mind is politicians say stupid shyt on purpose often.
Did you see Ted Cruz say stupid shyt and ask ridiculous questions to Kentaji during the hearings and then after was caught immediately checking twitter if he was trending?
Alot on the right don't want schools teaching their kids about pronouns and sexual orientation but DeSantis naming the bill don't say gay is just creating unnecessary negative shyt, probably on purpose too for the same reason Ted Cruz asked stupid shyt.
I'm sure the left does the same, ooops sorry I meant liberals.
