Pre-obama it was pretty much "lol you're gay god hates you"
During Obama it was "It's (current year) it's ok to be gay"

and now under Trump we're starting to regress lol

Well, It's your own fault: He will probably end up getting four more years: All he has to do is starting a war against some small crappy country.
Venezuela will be my guess.

Going just by your example, people who were Ok with gays before are still Ok with gays. We didn't magically stop liking or accepting our gay friends because of an election. Likewise, people who didn't support gays before and thought "lol you're gay god hates you" are still going to think that, and I would bet any amount of money they thought that, regardless of what Obama wanted.

I don't think much progress was actually made at all. Trump's election and the things have happened after have made it apparent that some people were just too scared of being social outcasts for voicing their opinion that they were still against LGBT people. So basically, under a liberal president people felt free to voice support for them and under a conservative president people feel free to voice their disapproval. I mean, even Obama was against LGBT people at first but he changed his mind in the middle of his term in order to gain more support from voters and his party and to look more benevolent.

The only reason is because the courts over stepped boundaries and made marriage legal. Down here we still disagree and are pissed gay rights is a state by state issue.

Very. I disagree with them having marriage rights. Every other one sure but marriage is between man and woman. Until that changes back I will be hostile.

It shouldn't. Well known individual on my views on the gays and now trannies (no rights for them)

I agree the gays should have some rights but having marriage is a joke.

Most non-religious people in the U.S. have no issue with gay people, unless homosexuality is specifically being used as a source of attention or to push some type of fake oppression narrative ("look at me, I'm gay!" or "you have no idea how hard it is being a gay man in 2017!" type of stuff). That stuff is annoying to pretty much everyone.

People do still have a big issue with the T in LGBT, but that's a completely different topic.

Most people get called out for having no attitude though. Not caring about gay people is apparently the same as hating on them.

This is the dumbest counter the alt right uses and they use it all the time.

"I'm tired of being called homophobic"

Then stop being homophobic.

"I'm sick of being called racist"

Then stop being racist.

"Nah, I'll just elect a homophobic racist to the white house, that'll teach those libruls to not hurt my feelings"

Then you're also a homophobic racist

"REEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

sexuality is just a small part of the whole person. I wonder why it's so important to a bunch of heterosexual white liberals?

"If you want me to stop being homophobic, stop calling me homophobic!"

Where does that even begin to look like logic


That insinuates that the person was homophobic to begin with.

Maybe so, but I don't think that's what the vocal critics want nowadays. It seems like a color-blind society (as an example) was what people advocated for years ago, but now everything is identity politics. People who dismiss or mislabel the identities get into trouble.

You can't stop the gays, no matter how hard the evangelicals might try to. :v And there are less and less of their kind every year. Not to mention more churches are becoming accepting of the gays.

The only problem is that society seems in general to be more accepting of the monogamous, "they're just like us except they're with another man/woman!" gays and not the freaky gays who suck dick in truck stops and rest rooms. But that is probably for the best since those gays are kind of gross anyway.

if you suck dick at a truck stop I will judge you, regardless of how supportive I am of the LGBT. :v Because that's just nasty and your mother probably raised you better than that.
