Why do they care if we are gay?

Why do they care if we are gay?

Because they can’t generate enough self-worth by themselves. Therefore they must do so by demonising an outgroup, participating in the social action of scapegoating in order to create status within a group which privileges hate.

Infrahumanisation (or infrahumanization) is the tacitly held belief that one’s ingroup is more human than an outgroup, which is less human. […] According to Leyens and colleagues, infrahumanisation arises when people view their ingroup and outgroup as essentially different (different in essence) and accordingly reserve the “human essence” for the ingroup and deny it to the outgroup.

The idea that queer people are ‘less human’ is a rallying call to people who gain status from hate to care very much about the issue, because queer people become a potent target for personal and social disgust.

And we are a convenient one at that. We’re born this way into every group of humans observed. Bisexuality in some form is extremely common which allows choice narratives to take hold. Then there’s patriarchy, which allows to pin the sins of the worst straight men to be held against all queer people

They don’t care at all. What they do care is sowing polarization and distrust between western citizens. Russia benefits most when we (the West) are divided on various social issues, which leads to distrust of authorities, election of extremists in office and eventually weak and corrupt states and governments that are easily controlled or countered by Russia.

They want to undermine and weaken the US by fostering division. Standard KGB playbook.

They want to feel superior. If some people are different, then they are inferior, or weird.

This is why calling Trump weird has been so successful.

They don’t. They care about tying us up in endless bullshit fuckery.

Oh they do. They care very much about queer people. That’s why they have essentially made them illegal. And that’s why they’re doing this- they think we hate queer people just as much as they do rather than it being a mixed bag.

They don’t give a fuck if we live or die, let alone if we’re gay. They might give a fuck that their own declining population is gay, that I grant you.

They want everyone to follow their vision of morality. That includes demonizing queer people to the point of making them illegal.

Because Russia would love nothing more than America to play second fiddle in their orchestra, and if they can’t have that they want us at each other’s throats. We are an easy and omnipresent scapegoat so Russia can weaponize that to sow discord and possibly get us on the “anti equality” bandwagon. In short, it’s step one of the Russo-American axis powers.

Aligns well with Trump’s republicans I guess.

Maybe I should feel complimented that halfway around the world a kgb agent turned dictator felt he had to do all this to stop me from living my life.
