Lots of racists also hate gays and we don't say they're not homophobic or racist because they happen to hate other people as well.
If you meet someone who hates black people, gay folk, trans and you're judging them and they say "I hate Jews too" you're not gonna be like "ok, that's enough separate groups of people for it to suddenly become alright, you're an ok person."
There's no level where suddenly it's ok, so why would the ultimate "everyone" level be different?
Might not be okay to hate everyone, but it's probably not homophobic. Because they don't hate gay people for being gay, but for being people.
It's entirely too much work to pick out something offensive to hate each individual out of 8 billion for. Can't I just say I hate everyone for whatever would be the most bastardly thing to hate them for?
I'm trying to compensate by being a gigantic dick.
