Paradox of Tolerance
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
The paradox of tolerance is a philosophical concept suggesting that if a society extends tolerance to those who are intolerant, it risks enabling the eventual dominance of intolerance, thereby undermining the very principle of tolerance.
If we all just idly sit by and let assholes be assholes, all we're ever going to end up with is to be surrounded by assholes. Not only should we stand up and say something or show our displeasure or disagreement with these idiots .... common people should stop voting these morons into positions of power.
These idiots don't get into power because they have any kind of charisma or power over people ... they get into power because most people idly stand by and just watch them as they take control of power knowing that no one or not enough people will stop them.
Sexuality or sexual identity isn't the problem ... being afraid is.
