It’s 2025 and there are still millions of insecure, angry men, and a large number of similar women, who hate homosexuals. Hate them. What threat does anyone in the LGBTQ+ world pose to anybody? You’d have to be a homophobe to dribble out an incoherent, hate-filled rationale.

I’d imagine anyone with basic common sense and common decency would understand that people who are not like them, speakers of other languages, people from other cultures, people with different ancestry, religion, do not pose any threat just because of these differences. You don’t like people who speak French? Don’t talk to them, mon ami. Homophobia is irrational hatred just like racism against Blacks, Asians, violent hatred against Muslims, Jews, Central Americans, war orphans. Why did this news from Heather Cox Richardson come as no surprise in the Age of Musk/Trump?

Protesters today packed Christopher Park in New York City’s Greenwich Village near the Stonewall National Monument after the Trump administration erased “TQ+” from the LGBTQ+ on the monument’s website. The Stonewall Uprising of 1969, six days of conflict between police and LGBTQ+ protesters after police raided the Stonewall Inn, brought the longstanding efforts of LGBTQ+ activists for civil rights to popular attention, making Stonewall a symbol of LGBTQ+ rights.

Former Republican operative Stuart Stevens had a different take. He posted: “When I see the sexual orientation hate come out of the Republican party under the pretext of just being anti-Trans, I am very tempted to name the Republican operatives and elected officials who are closeted gays. It’s not a short list.”

Famous closeted gay superstar mob lawyer Roy Cohn, a highly sexed and very promiscuous man, smiles at his peeps from the hot place. He’s still a bit hissy that his protegé, the handsome young Donald J. Trump, dropped him like a bad habit when Cohn was dying of AIDS. I can picture him bitching to Satan about this betrayal by the ungrateful son of a wealthy man he did so much for every chance he got.
