I'm just sick of the whole subject to be honest. None of my gay friends seem to be disadvantaged in any way, not here in Ireland. They have a disproportionately loud voice in media/politics, especially compared to those who I believe are the most disadvantaged, the sick, the poor, the elderly. Das jus me tho.

I agree!
I'm not straight either ( I go both ways). And I never have felt like a "victim" or discriminated against. I sometimes feel like the people who are constantly "announcing" their "label" all over the place. Are going to feel like that, because eventually someone is going to say something against it. I keep my sexuality to myself most of the time. Why? Because in most situations you encounter it's NOT important. It's not like something like that is asked on a job application LOL.
When we overuse "labels" it just divides us as people! We should be using the money like you said to help the poor and elderly.

I hate all these weird agendas. Like what are they trying to do? I'm glad Steemit isn't pushing this crap on us!

Usually I don't entertain that nonsense, but it seemed very much like some stupid agenda. I don't think any of my gay friends ever compared being straight to the KKK lol. I dunno I just drove 13 hours straight and I'm going passout for a bit!

This is just retarded... the race baiting wasn't enough? Now let's further divide people into boxes.

I think you're really underestimating how stupid people on just on their own.

You really think this is just herd mentality with no help? It's possible, but I mean who the hell just wakes up and thinks, "We should start an irreverent agenda to promote segregation on Twitter today!"

Actually yes. There are studies showing that humans are extremely tribal and that emotion will almost always override rational thought in quite ridiculous ways. Search for "tribalism controls human behavior" or "emotion overriding rational thought" and you'll find some very interesting experiments.
