it very quickly leads into “Every homophobe is a closeted homosexual”, which is some genuinely insane levels of victim blaming when you actually think about it.

I was being intentionally hyperbolic for comedic effect rather than trying to be totally nuanced.

There's plenty of examples of people who are outwardly liberal being homophobic- it happens all the time towards people who are seen as 'not on their team' ie how often Democrats (online, comedians, etc) will mock someone like lindsey graham because he's a bit queeny.

You also see it when liberals do stuff like portray Putin and Trump kissing because men kissing bad, right?

To be clear, this wasn't a "call out" or whatever the fuck the kids call it now. I just think it's really important to always interrogate the implications of our arguments. Things we say in jest can still reinforce dangerous or damaging ideas.
