Many have done it, and so have you. Calling it “woke liberal” and JoJo was just offended because she was thin skinned. Instead of just saying what it is: inappropriate. By shifting the focus onto the reaction and suggesting it wasn’t something to be offended by automatically trivialises what he said and my point as a straight person, you don’t really get it.
As for the second point, again, straight people don’t get to decide what is and isn’t weaponisation of offence and then when it crosses their line into that give “pushback”. By suggesting that you’re essentially insinuating that gay people are allowed to object to homophobia but only on the parameters set by straight people. Anything louder than a quiet chant and there will be pushback, and you seem to be suggesting that pushback is justifiable.
Gay people have been fed threads of freedom and acceptance over decades and now they finally have hold of the end of the rope certain members of society have decided they’ve been given too much.
And I know this is coming across as me solely going for you, I don’t meant it to, it’s just you are the only one talking to me haha.
