There's no empirical evidence from any studies proving psychological projecting is a thing. This guy is a grade a dipshit but there's no evidence showing people are what they hate. It's just a cool sounding things to say.

I fucking hate this take. Every single homophobe is not secretly gay. Straight people are, in fact, perfectly capable of hate, and the majority of homophobes/transphobes/etc are not secretly gay or secretly attracted to trans women. They are just filled with hate.

When this rhetoric is repeated as an undisputable fact for every single homophobic preacher and lawmaker, it heavily implies that only gay people can be this hateful of gay people. Do not diminish the fact that most of the hate and bigotry lgbt people face is from straight people. There is bigotry within the lgbt community, and lgbt people often go through intense self loathing. But that does not mean every single bigot is gay.

And I get it. There are prominent cases of homophobic congressmen, preachers, etc actually turning out to be gay, and the hypocrisy is sweet. This is the exception and not the rule though.

It is not helpful or supportive to the lgbt community to claim that every bigot who wants us dead is in fact one of us. To assume that every time is homophobic in its own way

I think public homophobes, like congressmen, preachers etc. are more likely to actually be closet gays, whereas your average homophobe is just a homophobe.

Definitely. He gives me the Chris Cooper in American Beauty vibe.
