If outing conservatives for their projection materially changes anything, it will be a first. That said, I fully support this endeavor.

The Roy Cohns of the world deserve to get exposed, IMHO.

This describes 90% of the user base on Grindr in my area.

It’s not gay if you don’t marry.

Conservative forums are talking about rounding up immigrants, letting women die in clinics and stripping people of their rights and dismantling Democracy.

Here on the "left" lemmy, we're arguing whether calling out hypocrites is a step too far we've got to be respectful after all!

This is why the left sucks as organising and actually voting for change in unison. A simple thing as outing assholes starts a 10h discussion, meanwhile on the right they are building cages....

Oh I'm sorry, not cages, enclosures without exists, we don't want to offend people identifying as cages!

"If a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance, thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance"

So yeah, call these intolerant hypocritical assholes out!

This made me think of this 20s clip from Thor: Ragnarok.

I'm not gay, but the idea of outing ANYONE in the LGBTQIA+ community has long been a cardinal sin, enough so that it destroys careers and forces them to be almost globally shunned. I would imagine that for many there is a deep-set conflict between outing someone that has wronged them, and not outing someone that would likely want to be accepted elsewhere where they don't need to pretend to be something they aren't.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

The problem with outing someone is that it risks subjecting them to discrimination and bigotry by homophobic assholes. Shunning it as a cardinal sin is a defense mechanism to protect each other.

If right-wing bigots hide behind those protections, while being part of the problem that necessitates them in the first place, they deserve no protections.

The scariest part of this movement for me is being targeted because somebody thought I was conservative. *shudder*

[–] [email protected] 26 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I've been getting this for the last few years because I look conservative. Sigh. Seems like it will soon get worse.

My father sometimes complains that he cant wear his red fishing hat anymore, because unless you pay close attention to the different design on the front, it looks like a maga hat.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 6 days ago (1 children)

The red hats that say “made you look” make me laugh, but I haven’t wanted to buy one because they look a little too convincing 😔

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 days ago

I saw one that said black lives matter, and chuckled. Well played

I'm 6'3, 300 pounds, built like a linebacker. Shaved head. There aren't a lot of clothes that look good on me and actually fit (finding a shirt long enough is hell). I tend to wear jeans and wife beater with an unbuttoned collared shirt in the summer, and flannel in the winter. I also tend to wear the shoes the podiatrist gives me (for now. So long medical insurance after 2025).

I have 100 percent been confused for a skin head on numerous occasions. If I'm leaving Walmart after dark, women will rush to their cars if I have to pass close by. I don't blame them. It sucks, but I'm glad they're acting on their safety over my feelings. But it does still hurt my feelings. :/

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 days ago

I hear you friend. I'm 200 pounds 6' even. I'm bald so I shave my head. On the funny side rarely people thank me for my service, or more often tell me I forgot my military discount.

On the not so fun side it makes it difficult to buy drugs, and I love drugs.

Have you tried Carhartt shirts they tend to have longer lengths of shirts

If a closeted person is passing laws, making policy, or using their platform to the LGBTQIA+ community, then outing is self-defense.

i've never been comfortable with the usage of the term "outing gay men" in this specific fairly negative context.

their fallacy isn't being gay -- that by itself is nothing wrong and should never be associated with a public shaming exercise.

no, the problem in this scenario is their hypocrisy in denigrating other gay men for their activities while indulging in those activities themselves.

this whole series of events should be called "exposing the hypocrisy of loud-mouths" instead of "outing gay men".

[–] [email protected] 33 points 5 days ago

It’s not outing gay men, it’s outing gay conservatives, which already has the loud mouth hypocrite angle covered.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 5 days ago

People are turning on each other. Like those saying Latinos should out each other to be deported. Nothing but more examples of how divisive the Trump regime is. I suppose I don't have to look up how this kind of thing has happened before in times of fascism. I'll bet it's gotta be true.

Fucking for democracy. Now that’s the kind of civil war I can get behind.

Careful now. Outing people against their will is how you get Peter Thiel.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He was already a piece of shit before he was outed.
