You don’t get more insulting than that. Chemically induced, my ass.

Look how he brought up chemistry instead of hormones or biology. He was deliberately raising dystopian science fiction toxicity. He was dehumanizing you on purpose.

It is beyond me how any gay person could be so dismissive of the humanity of another member of a gender or sexual minority.

When I first heard of the LGB Alliance, I presumed they would eventually fade away as sort of a laughing stock in queer circles.

It never occurred to me that the grotesque monsters at the top of that hate cabal would eventually have the ear of the UK government and the hearts of a small but not insignificant minority of gay people.

It just goes to show that bigotry and hatred sell. It’s a tragic human characteristic that makes me so angry.
