Or how about: “I’m gay so it’s OK for me to misrepresent another gay’s point of view to feed my Twitter rage.”
-
No, Brian. I literally RT'ed your tweets so that people could see exactly what you said. So, are you defending Jimmy and Chelsea's casual anti-gay jokes, or not?
-
Sigh. You retweeted my tweet with an editorialized caption which falsely assumed my point of view. But that’s cool.
-
So, no answer?

There is a long line of commentary on the issues with people telling others to "relax" or "calm down" when racism, sexism, anti-gay, anti-trans activity or comments are called out. That you are gay does not exempt you from the issues with doing so.
-
Ok. So I didn’t want to have to get into dissecting comedy with you, since you’re clearly a riot...but here it goes. Jimmy Kimmel, who is demonstrably pro-LGBTQ, uses a homosexually suggestive jab at Sean Hannity, who is demonstrably anti-LGBTQ.

I'm well aware of the "logic" behind such "jokes." It's lazy, it's not funny, and it is anti-gay because it continues the longstanding idea that being gay is a punchline. This is something
@meakoopa@LouisPeitzman and many, many others have discussed ad infinitum. - 5 more replies

I'm not gay and don't care if you are. I'm even Christian but your life is yours to live. Be happy.

This is why it angers me that some journalists are acting as apologists for Kevin Williamson. These jokes and pieces hurt people.

“I’m so upset about you being offended.”

I would just say it's absurd, but that's funny. Touche!

Here's my issue with people like the gay TV producer-- he wouldn't be saying relax if a Scott Baio had made the same stupid joke.
#Kimmel shouldn't be given a pass because he is a liberal. That's why@TheDemocrats ignored Clinton's RAPE of#JuanitaBroaddrick & it's unacceptable.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Kimmel’s was a prostitution joke. If they were opposite sex, it wouldn’t have referenced heterosexual sex (though would’ve perhaps been perhaps misogynistic). I’m having a hard time with ‘anti-gay’. Maybe it’s anti-sex

@briangillespie it's not ok because you're gay it's ok because your agenda and leftwing buddies absolve you. Be honest you know that's why. -
