Review of Joe Bell (2020) by Electronicoffee — 21 Aug 2021

Breaks my heart so many people would downvote or nitpick on this. Where the **** are your morals or heart or sanity? This kid committed suicide for being bullied for being gay and his dad took a trip to tell the world his story.

Anyone who's lost a parent or child should especially to suicide should be able to relate. I hate what leftism has done to the world, but homophobia still exists despite all the gays you see on TV and as an elder gay who came out a long time before all of this in the 80s/90s fighting for gay rights and visibility, it astounds me how many people on the right just think homophobia went away like it was some fantasy.

No, it's very real and one of the last few prejudices people are 'okay' with behind closed doors and even openly sometimes. Maybe you wouldn't know that from all the gays on television and in movies, but that doesn't mean a lot of people haven't just moved their prejudices from the front porch to inside the house.

If you're a conservative or centrist and don't hate homosexuals, I'm not talking about you- but I've encountered a LOT of homophobia on these free speech platforms and I don't mean someone using the word gay or **** or whatever (It has never bothered me when people use slang esp when gaming or busting each other's balls) but TRUE homophobia where someone is just disgusted or hates you for actually being homosexual and open about it.

I don't use the terms racism or homophobia casually unless I see actual evidence of it. Soapbox rant over.
