How are people still killing each other over imaginary friends?

All my hate is reserved for the billionaires. Some of whom might be gay. Many are pedophiles. All are parasites.

Queer woman in a passing relationship here. I work for local government in a conservative Southern town. The things people say to me because they assume that I am, A). straight, B). conservative, and C.) religious, are mind boggling. I know they wouldn't think of it this way, (or probably care, tbh) but they routinely make me feel really unsafe. I would never feel comfortable being out at work down here in the current climate.

Because I hate all people and gay people are a subset of all people. Here, I made you a handy chart to help explain.

Sorry this doesn’t make you homophobic because you don’t hate gays you hate all of mankind. Latin for man is homo so you must ackshually be homophobic.

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.
