I’m not American so I can’t tell how rampart homophobia is over there, but that shouldn’t be of concern?
It’s akin to the scam emails claiming to have webcam recordings of you jerking it to gay porn. It’s not illegal and no one cares if you like gay porn.
I understand that countries like Russia might perceive it as a trump card but in a free, liberal society it’s just not useful.
Oh no, that’s getting way too disingenuous for my taste.
The entire problem with what Trump did is because he run a homophobic campaign and is supported by a homophobic voter base. The entire reason Putin having photos is an issue is because it can destroy his entire political life. Every single person knows that. There’s no “in a free, liberal society” rationalizing here, Trump is not supported by people that believe in a free, liberal society.
There is nothing destroying his political career other than his death. There will be nothing that stops him at this point since we let it get here. He is a circus and everyone loves the ride. Including the media because it makes him relevant.
There was a time when the news was only 30 minutes. That we talked about other shit. I’m not saying we SHOULDN’T pay attention. Just that there is more than just some old white fucks arguing over who is getting the shaft while they make money and prevent anyone from becoming successful.
It’s not about homophobia, Bill Clinton was impeached because of the Monica Lewinsky stuff, and that’s not illegal either. It’s more of the fact that his fan base think he’s above reproach while victimizing people in that community. It’s more like “what now? Trump likes a dick down as well” also, he talks shite about just about everyone even his allies and refuses to acknowledge anything problematic about himself or his family.
Like, it’s not about any of the stuff you’re wondering about. Were making fun of him because he’s a fascist loser who I’m sure would get on his knees were the price to his liking. That’s all.

I consider myself an ally, but I truly love watching known homophobes getting caught enjoying gay stuff.
