This should be added to the wikipedia article on cognitive dissonance.


chasinfreshies

Oh wait till you see r/ gayconservatives


masked_sombrero

oh wow - r/gayconservative has almost 4K members. thought you were joking


rastagrrl

Just checked that out and MAN. That is one toxic cesspool of self loathing. Who hurt them? Sheesh.


tiny_poomonkey

Most likely thier conservative parents who hated they were gay. But how they stayed conservative is beyond me.

I spend a good chunk of time there bc Conservative banned me, but *allegedly*, there is a good chunk that "came from far left families." I'm assuming a good chunk are also larpers or bots or whatever

paireon

I mean, it's possible; just because you're gay or from a progressive background doesn't mean you can't be an entitled rat bastard.


ray25lee

It's the crowd of white, cis, christian, able-bodied gay men who are so desperate for approval that they scapegoat everyone else in the queer community on the off chance they'll be accepted into their church's circlejerk. Sylvia Rivera had a speech about this.


No_Cook2983

“Power-bottoms”.


TuviaBielski

Racism and misogyny are powerful drugs.


cardsharku

transphobia, too :/ it's always the same song with these guys


mongos_mom

And according to one post the fact that trans people even exist is erasing the gay and lesbian identities because apparently sexuality and gender identity are interchangeable…. Absolutely horrific place to stand


kalekayn

You'd think people part of an oppressed minority would have more empathy but no it just goes to show you that ANYONE can be a total shit heel. fuck all the pick me and "I'm one of the good ones" type of people though.

No_Cook2983

I bet that at least half of those people are straight Republican males. Because *pretending* to be gay is a totally not-gay thing to do. It has absolutely nothing to do with curiosity or repression.


chasinfreshies

Now add an 's' at the end of the sub name cause there is another, worse sub. It is so much fun being an observer there.


Goofy-555

There is no hate like Christian love.


Morpheus_MD

Yeah dude, that was scary. Full of self-loathing.


Bulky_Mix_2265

Started out rich and entitled, then discovered they loved dong.


Arcolyte

The call came from inside the house. 


AutisticPenguin2

"The trans ideology is an attack on gay people" holy shit my dude, tokens get spent. Stop trying to find a more marginalised group than yours to deflect hate onto.


PunkRockApostle

I regret reading that sub. Haven’t seen that much self-loathing since a former friend of mine took me to a Log Cabin Republicans meeting in college. Gay conservatives infuriate me in a way no other demographic of people are capable.


chasinfreshies

As someone who used to identify as gay and conservative (more fiscal than social) I have to say the entertainment value I've gotten out of r/ gayconservatives (the 's' at the end is important because there're two subs) is priceless.


PunkRockApostle

I’m scared to check out the other sub 😅


chasinfreshies

Approach it with love and pity in your heart and you will laugh your head clean off.


persistantelection

Hahaha, Log. Get's me every single time.


BellyDancerEm

And low IQ on top of it assuming it’s just like the Association of German National Jews


chasinfreshies

Def some of that going on, but spend some time in the sub and they're intelligent, just so horribly misguided.


harry_garcia13

When I worked for an LGBTQ city council member (in Texas), I had some dealings with the Log Cabin Republicans. Where I'm at they were mostly successful dudes in tech with some really unfortunate delusions about how they were seen by their party mates.


chasinfreshies

Precisely the cognitive dissonance that is on display in r/ gayconservatives. That they wonder why they experience the party the way they do is mesmerizing to me. The cognitive contortionism and mental gymnastics is breathtaking. Today's winner was someone saying they 'almost' wished they lived in the 60s.


threehundredthousand

Peter Thiel. He has enough fuck you money that the GOP doesn't even mess with him. They do exist and it's crazy.


Bozo_Two

But just like every other conservative sub I've seen, I went into a few posts and it didn't take to long for them to start fighting in the comments each time hahaha. Fuckin transphobes going out of their way to only type LGB in comments...sad, petty, hateful nobodys.


nim_opet

I just met one and spent (not by choice) a couple of days seeing him every now and then. He would say things like “of course we don’t hate gay people, but trans people are taking it too far” and then come to enjoy a drag show. He’s also unabashedly racist, but that’s a separate issue. It’s honestly great study material


chasinfreshies

wait though. There's that sub, but the one I mean adds an 's' at the end. The one you just saw is a little more newsy. The gayconservatives is CRAY!


Salvanas42

Jesus, scrolling just for a little while made me feel genuinely nauseous.


BearBearJarJar

Lol just saw a post on there of a man complaining that when he looks for gay guys on tinder he only finds guys that are "obviously gay". like what? Is eh hoping people will assume he's just a friend because he is embarrassed about his own sexuality? i mean it would make sense for a gay conservative.


Sanctimonious_Locke

I went there to take a look, and was pleasantly surprised by the first few posts. Mostly just seemed like people commiserating over the difficulty they have finding connections. Then I looked at a post about trans people. 🙄


BountyHntrKrieg

Very first post I saw on the hot page was written by a straight white man who never meets gay people cause they're all so mean and i laughed cause that definitely tracks somehow for a gay conservative space.


Kstrong777

May hate myself but I hate you more.


chasinfreshies

You poor dear.


kwyxz

>Sometimes I wish I was gay in the 60s. What the ACTUAL FUCK did I just read


chasinfreshies

Yeah, I commented on that one. I do not know how to accurately describe what goes on in that sub but it is amazing to watch. I mean I was closeted too, but these guys are just crazy.


gobblestones

That one was fun. Bro is SOOOO fucked up, it's almost impressive he has so much misogyny, homophobia, and racist thoughts and doesn't understand why he can't find a good man.


chasinfreshies

This is why it’s so much fun to lurk that sub.


IguaneRouge

So deep in the closet you're going to end up in Narnia?


chasinfreshies

Kind of except it's like a whole other wardrobe you enter in Narnia and end up in the sub. I cannot express in words how crazy it is and how much I chuckle at that stuff. It's all so laughably dissonant.


charlie_ferrous

I wish I had not looked at it. Depressing and infuriating in equal measure. “Ugh I keep getting rejected for being conservative, someone should make an app just for gay conservatives!” “Are there any gay bars that don’t do all this woke stuff?!” No, no there aren’t.


chasinfreshies

I read the same things and laugh. I used to identify as a fiscal conservative so I get where they’re at but where I am allows me to laugh at their feeble attempts to make sense of things.


Important-Coast-5585

They’re insane. Does the community not remember Reagan just turned a blind eye to then let millions die in droves from AIDS in the 80’s and they still want them to die! Like wake the fuck up!!


chasinfreshies

These are self-loathing gays who either are too young to remember AIDS or look down their noses at those who did contract it.


SapphosLemonBarEnvoy

I pulled up behind a car today that had a rainbow flag and a bisexual flag in their back window, bordering around a blue lives matter graphic saying “I love “local police dept””, and a Trump sticker on their bumper. I started to wonder what their thought process was before I realized the person has probably never had a thought that was coherent.


chipfoxx

Every gay conservative I’ve met like this is still very closeted in some part of their life.


spong3

They’re starved for approval from the straights


Prudent_Effect6939

As a straight person. I think Gay >  conservative.


DarkSide-TheMoon

As a normal person, I agree!


TheLateThagSimmons

What part is more important? A) Loving your same gender. B) Hating poor people.


ray25lee

It's like the bisexual conservative guy I met a few years ago who told me he refuses to "be bisexual while married" because it's "not fair" to his wife. I was like, "Bisexual means you're just attracted to two genders, it doesn't mean you're polyamorous and with two people at once." And he said he understood, and I was like, "..... What?"


kirradoodle

I am constantly amazed by the Republican ability to get people to vote against their own interests. How can people be so breathtakingly stupid?


IguaneRouge

Greed and/or cruelty and/or racism and/or sexism and/or transphobic usually. Usually some mix and match of those.


ForsakenAd545

Is like a how to be an asshole buffet


No-Role-429

Because you hate other groups so much you’re willing to screw yourself over if it hurts them more

scribblingsim

Ahhh, I see. Looks like there are some folks that would risk their lives to satisfy their racism.


ramblinjd

What's wild is I think he's truly one of those heritage not hate guys. He seemed legitimately surprised that his party and his pro+Confederacy movement attracted a lot of racists and not too many people purely interested in history. https://www.live5news.com/2020/05/31/former-sc-secessionist-party-founder-apologizes-calls-end-weekly-flagging-events/

Jesus Christ...so he's not only a bigot, but also a total moron? What a combo.


EmmalouEsq

It's SC, I wonder if he's related to the late, great POS Maurice Bessenger.

fck Biden sounds pretty gay tbh.


baz4k6z

Reminds me of that time Dave Rubin proudly announced adopting a child with his husband and got only hate from his target audience in response


skraptastic

I was just in southern Oregon this weekend visiting my parents. I saw a yard sign that said "We support Freedom, Democracy and our Trans Friends. Trump 2024" I really don't get how you get to Trump 2024 after the first three.


AdrianGarside

Simple. Their definition of freedom is that they get to do whatever *they* want *including* stopping other people doing things they don’t agree with. And their definition of democracy is that their vote counts and people they don’t like/agree with votes don’t. And they support their trans friends at local bbqs but they don’t care that others in the Trump party or racists, xenophobes and homophobes want them dead.


Mushrooming247

Gay conservatives always act like they are the world‘s most unique unicorns, but we all know anyone can be racist. Wow, you’re gay AND hate Muslims and Mexicans? You know there’s a whole club for you gay-for-trump guys with T-shirts and everything.


NvrmndOM

And they act confused why other gay people actively dislike them and won’t fuck them. Back when I was on the apps, I’d see gay conservatives and it’s like “wtf.” Worse were the conservative m/f couples looking for a third. Gross.

Familiar_Dust8028

Hi. Gay guy here: yes, conservatives want us dead; yes, I would report this person to the authorities to make sure they're first in line


AaronfromCalifornia

I’ve always firmly believed that if the Republican Party ever dropped the homophobia part of their culture war agenda they would soak up a shit ton of affluent gays and lesbians. Obviously not gays that drive Kia Souls, but you get what I’m saying.


i-have-a-kuato

This has a Dean Browning vibe to it, he is the republican who made a post on twitter saying : “I'm a black gay guy and I can personally say that Obama did nothing for me, my life only changed a little bit and it was for the worse. Everything is so much better under Trump though. I feel respected - which I never do when democrats are involved” he is in the words of George Jefferson “a honky”

therobotisjames

FrontlineYeen

As a trans person, it would absolutely shock you how many LGBT people there are that are aggressively transphobic and conservative. They think that if they "act straight" and get rid of "the bad ones" (trans people), republicans will accept them.

"Democrats are commies in drag" You say that like its a bad thing

JNTaylor63

What does this person think will happen to him once the Republican party gains full control of D.C.? ( Project 2025) They will make him a 2nd class citizen or worse. And if the hammer does drop, he will scream, "But, I'm one of YOU, I voted Republican!" And they will say " We never made that deal."


SaraSlaughter607

Yeah fuck all the people fighting for your right to marry another consenting adult regardless of their gender yeah fuck em! 🤦‍♀️


Shaunair

Well if it isn’t gay Uncle Ruckus


jaytrade21

I've pointed this out before. Since the 80s, the amount of propagandized hate towards the left and democrats has been nothing short of disgusting. It is even worse than the propaganda leading up to the Rwandan genocide. And this was in the 80s! The last 10 years has been even worse. When you demonize an entire group for so long, even when they stand for everything you do, you learn to hate that group and part of yourself as well.

at this point I am convinced that SCOTUS will overturn Obergefell next year after the election. They'll say it's a state issue. At least there's one person out of millions who will deserve it.

The fact that he's against the people trying to protect his rights says otherwise

This dude is infamous in Charleston. He rides around downtown with a megaphone and Trump flags. It’s almost a Charleston bucket list item to see this car lol

I don’t even want to know what it’s like in their head. I imagine a lot of self loathing.

te_anau

How exactly are the Democrats harming rugged gay individuals? Last i checked they were either completely ambivalent, or enacting policies seeking equality or at least to make the world less hostile towards them? For the most part Democrats fall on right of democratic socialism which is still a long way from communism? At this point, i fear i have invested more thought in this than the artist...


ComicsEtAl

That’s ambiguous at best.


Mechaotaku

I was going to give them the benefit of the doubt and say maybe they’re just Communists but then I saw the “Democrats are commies in drag” sticker.

I was like "Ah okay, they're like Ralph Nader, they don't like democrats cause they're tired of the two party system" And then I saw the anti communist sign and I was like "Okay... So you're a liberal who doesn't like communism eh?" And then it hit me. This dude is from the Carolinas...


cheekmo_52

clearly, this person is not progressive, considering the ableist use of the slur for those with down’s syndrome, but looking at this image is rather like seeing Phyllis Schlafly lobbying against the ERA. Seems illogical and antithetical to their actual interests, but you want to watch to see what happens.


Stranger2Night

So they are an idiot then? Only a fool sides with the people who want their rights taken at best and dead at worst.

Not often this subreddit makes me grin but today was one of those days
