What in Gay Hell has happened to DU?!?!

[Behind the Aegis]

I feel like I am in Gay Hell! I have NEVER seen such hateful remarks about gays at DU! There have never been so many threads about gays at DU but since the loss of the election everyone is looking for someone to blame. So who gets the biggest blunt of it? The bigots? NOPE! The crooked voting machines? NOPE! The ignorant voters? NOPE! The reason we lost...FAGGOTS AND DYKES! What the FUCK happened to DU!?! I come to this place to discuss ideas, debate, get REAL news, and be among "friends!"

To those that blame the gays or think the "gay issues" should be dropped from the party platform: FUCK YOU! You are a BIGOT! You can 'pretend' you are 'tolerant,' but you are still a BIGOT! I don't want your damn tolerance, I want my EQUAL rights! How dare you tell me I am not important enough to be included in the Democrat(ic) Party platform! Is my money not green enough?! My blood not red enough? My LIFE not important enough?! You are WORSE than a Rethug! At least they will call me a faggot to my face! You are a coward! GET BENT!

To those who have supported the inclusion of gays and their EQUAL rights: Thank you! You are the reason I am not leaving the DU! I am glad to see you view me and others like me as worthy of being granted equal rights! I hope you will continue to fight along with me until ALL people have EQUAL rights! Brightest Blessings!

To the supportive moderators: Thank you for your fast action at banning fag-bashers here! Thank you for making sure that DU understands ALL people deserve equal rights! Brightest Blessings!

If you are a homophobe (or gays make you 'uneasy'), admit it! It is the first step to recovery! There are plenty of us here who will help you overcome your bigotry!
