No such thing. Ask away!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

It seems to be a common left-winger fantasy that right-wingers are secretly obsessed with gays/trans/femboys/queer/etc sexually. Doesn't seem to be based on any truth, just your typical left/right wing rubbish.
"FreedomAdvocate" just immediately sounds like a troll account. Aaaannnnd the comment history is almost nothing but trolling. Surprise surprise.
What you define as trolling is apparently very different to what actual trolling is.
Why does almost every “progressive” think that anyone saying things they disagree with is “trolling”? Genuine question. Is it because you can’t fathom anyone not sharing the same views as you, so you think that they must be deliberately saying argumentative arguments to try and get a reaction?
Yes, pretending you have questions when you just have insults is a great example of trolling.
What are you talking about? Where did I "pretend I have questions but just have insults"? Where did I even insult anyone in my post that you replied to? Here it is, please show me:
Insult......where? You just saw an opinion that you didn't agree with and therefor didn't like and just went straight to "they're trolling".
Not based on any truth

A “drip drip” is a usual consequence of hot sweaty mansex.
Cool, so you found what.....6 people who might possibly be gay or like some strange stuff? And that then means that all "right-wingers" are the same? So if I was to find say 6 instances of a left-winger being a pedo, does that mean that all left-wingers are pedos?
Queen Gertrude: The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
Homophobia is absolute rife in the left-wing community btw.
Which is why you provided examples. I wonder if there is an explicit historical difference in party platforms.
Was is it Clinton who ignored the AIDS epidemic until it became a crisis and told a supposed friend to fuck off when they were dying?
You actually want me to provide 6 examples of left-wing homophobia, or pedos, or anything else like that? You seriously don't think that any left-wing people do bad things?
The point is that there's no "right wingers are all closet homosexuals", just like there's no "left wingers are all closet pedos". How did you not get that? Are there some, even lots, on both sides? Absolutely.
You’re right in that individual examples prove nothing, but the evidence suggests something larger at play.
I’ve provided examples of individual and institutional homophobia - you’ve failed to even suggest evidence of the former. I would not deny that individual “left wingers” (idk if you distinguish between leftists and liberals in the same way I do) that are homophobic - but I don’t think I’ve seen any evidence that progressive ideologies are institutionally homophobic. Feel free to provide some evidence though!
But your "evidence" isn't indicative of all "right-wingers". It's some small study of "homophobes". Many on the left are homophobes, seemingly more and more these days as "trans rights" and gay rights don't mix very well.

Classic right wing "divide and conquer" tactics, try to drive a wedge between trans and gay people, pick off the trans people first, then come for the gays next. This nonsense is exactly why the LGBT acronym was made in the first place, because we (the vast majority of us, anyway) stand together in solidarity and reject this idiotic nonsense.
Completely wrong.
Gay is same sex attraction. Nothing at all to do with gender and especially not gender identity.
Trans people and advocates call gay men who won’t date a trans man (a female) “bigots” and “transphobes”. They say that a male can be a lesbian, and if a lesbian won’t suck a “female penis” she is transphobic and a bigot. That’s homophobia, and like I said, it is rife in the TQ community.
Gay rights and trans rights are not compatible. One is based on sexual attraction, one is based on “gender identity”, the latter of which tries to force the former to not exist. The trans activists don’t even hide it - they call it “genital preference” and say it’s transphobic. That’s incredibly homophobic.
Boo-boo, I’m a trans man. Telling me that being trans is homophobic is not the move.
Holy shit, they gave this dumbass a PhD?
Amazing that your same source (different author) has an article praising John Money. The guy who made David Reimer pretend to have sex with his brother to convince him that he was a girl. That’s fascinating - usually “TERFs” like to bring up Money to condemn “the trans movement.”
