dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone âš3â© âšweeksâ© agohm, I hear you - but I think that would have to be embedded in the context of the meme; itâs not like anyone knows you are a âcocksuckerâ in a non-pejorative sense; homophobia is what makes the meme successful, and I donât think anything changes from the fact that you happen to be creating or sharing it
basically the homophobia is in the audience that interprets and receives the meme, the meme succeeds because it plays on that homophobia, and so the meme is âhomophobicâ in that sense
I have trouble imagining these memes being shared and being popular gay communities Iâm a part for that reason - the audience might find the implication that sucking cock is itself wrong as homophobic and uncomfortable
it should be clarified that when I point out the homophobia, itâs not meant as some attempt to cancel the memes or indicate loyalty or protection to Trump, instead Iâm just trying to point out reactionary threads that remain, the way misogyny and homophobia are common even in anti-Trump sentiment

Is fucking bad? Because you just used it as an insultâŠ

deliberately misinterpreting âfuck Xâ as articulating a sex-negative attitude is so non-serious and shows such bad-faith đ
are you just upset that you didnât have anything to offer, and this seemed clever to you?
either way, Iâm blocking you for your bad faith; I am happy to waste time engaging with serious people, but I have no time for your silliness

I know you have blocked me, but for the benefit/detriment of anyone else readingâŠ
So if it becomes common to use âblowâ (or any other allusion to fellatio) as a way to convey disdain, does it cease to be homophobic? How are we not there already?
