My wife’s friend (a conservative white lesbian) tried to seriously tell me (white guy) that straight white guys are oppressed. I couldn’t do anything but blankly stare at her in disbelief as she completed her mental gymnastics. When she was done, I just blurted out “that’s the dumbest fucking thing I’ve ever heard.”

Conservative LGBT+ folks always just puzzle the fuck out of me. How stupid does someone have to be to support a cause that would have them eliminated if they got their way?

Gives some really big Association of German National Jews vibes; a pro-Hitler Jewish organization, the founder of which eventually got sent to a concentration camp

It’s because she grew up wealthy and her parents are also conservative. The idea that conservatives as a group would openly welcome the eradication of her ilk is completely lost on her, as much as I’ve tried to explain it to her. She thinks I’m being dramatic.
