    One of my friends is a MAGA gay. He is absolutely miserable and hates himself all just because he is gay and everyone around him except for me says its not okay. Its fucked up and I can’t seem to pull him out of that headspace.

      Why are you telling him his behavior is acceptable? That is doing him a huge disservice, especially if you are his “friend”. Call that shit out.

          Ah! I must have misunderstood their comment. It sounded like they were gay, MAGA, and people hated him for his MAGA behavior. Gay is fabulous, raging asshole is not.

        Personally, I think it’s great that MAGA guy has a voice of reason in his life

          Since when does reason mean a damn to the average MAGA fuck, let alone a queer one who ought to know better?

          I don’t necessarily disagree with you though, hell I agonize about this very thing since I have definitely run up against MAGA and threeper queers. One of whom I cut off an entire friend group over because he was always in that group. Another I tried staying in contact with to try to be a voice of reason for, but I just couldn’t take it at a certain point and had to cut the fucker off.

          Hell I have the same general struggle with my fox news addicted father - I cut him off for years after he ranted about mask mandates within MONTHS of his own daughter spending a week in intensive care from severe asthma complications.

          I dunno how to handle this shit and it really fucks me up.
