Thiel’s sexuality has been very widely known for a while now because he financed the legal destruction of the tabloid that outed him. Altman is probably less known but if you read his wiki article you’ll find that he met his husband in Thiel’s hot tub. Literally didn’t know that sisterraper was gay before reading that
Likewise. Not exactly a topic that matters. The GOP though, specifically, seem to struggle with the whole “other people’s lives” part of freedom and liberty.
Time once again to trot out Roy Cohn’s monologue from Angels in America:
Your problem, Henry, is that you are hung up on words, on labels: “gay”, “homosexual”, “lesbian.” You think they tell you who a person sleeps with, but they don’t tell you that. Like all labels, they refer to one thing and one thing only: Where does a person so identified fit in the food chain? In the pecking order. Not ideology or sexual taste, but something much simpler: clout. Who owes me favors. Not who I fuck or who fucks me, but who will pick up the phone when I call. To someone who doesn’t understand this, homosexual is what I am because I sleep with men, but this is wrong. Homosexuals are not men who sleep with other men. Homosexuals are men who, in 15 years of trying, can’t get a pissant anti-discrimination bill through City Council. They are men who know nobody, and who nobody knows. Now, Henry, does that sound like me?
It is super weird to me that the GOP has a raging hard on for them while simultaneously being bigoted and homophobic.
Weirdly I had no idea either of them were gay… but I guess I’m not a right wing bigot who cares about everyone’s sexual preferences.

Yeah, that nails it. Cognitive dissonance, baby!
Is that a real quote? Where’s it from?

Oh… so he didn’t say this, right? This is a dramatization of how he thought and acted.
Sought the glory of Rome too hard they unearthed its sexuality
