I'm not a republican or an American, and this isn't about the politics of the situation, this was just weirdly touching for me. Mainly because an openly gay dude spoke at the RNC in 2000 without even mentioning anything about his gayness and attendees were praying in protest, and 16 years later a gay dude openly proclaims his gayness in a speech and gets a standing ovation. It just seems like real progress of a kind. A measuring stick of sorts, a clear indicator that attitudes change, and maligned minorities aren't necessarily always going to be so. I dunno.

Peter Thiel is the same billionaire that helped fund Hulk Hogan's lawsuit against Gawker because Gawker at one point outed him as gay. The idea apparently was to deter the kind of journalism that ruins people's lives for no good reason.

Maybe I'm cynical here, but I don't think it necessarily represents progress or acceptance. The people at the convention were basically in a frenzy, I honestly think they will just agree with anything and anyone trump brings on stage. I'm sure if trump now said something like "changed my mind, all lgbt people should get the chair" the crowd would agree with that too. I think it's just blind faith in trump rather than them being accepting now.

There might have been some of that happening. Thiel was pretty careful to immediately follow up "I'm proud to be gay" with "I'm proud to be an American" and if anything is an applause light it's patriotism, especially with that kind of crowd.

Lemme know when Trump promises to repeal those ridiculous transgender bathroom laws.
>>
>>6601186
>ridiculous
then stop abusing women in the bathrooms you freaks
>>
>>6601186
Thiel just said in his speech that the bathroom thing is made up to distract us from real issues. Gay Republicans don't support trannies.
>>
>>6601186
Peter Thiel also said some stuff about the bathroom laws as well. "Who Cares."

>>6601113
Ye like 6 or so, they try to find a few.

>Gay Republicans don't support trannies.
I'm not exactly surprised desu... Is there a link to his speech?

This is literally never happens.

Trump said more letters in the LGBT acronym than I have ever heard a 'Republican' say unironically, more letters than I would say. The Trump Train has space aboard for all queers, he's getting the elephants so hyped that they'll follow him anywhere and he's leading them away from pointless queerhating.

Choo Choo motherfuckers us fags have won.

I thought it was funny that he commented on how legitimately surprised he was that people applauded his supporting people 5 letters into the acronym.

It's a good thing he's for us then. If the Republican voters are as crazy as they appear to be then we'll be seeing some progressive changes in the GOP thanks to Trump

There was plenty of applause right after he said he was proud to be gay and before he added the American bit.
>>
>>6601723
Yeah a little but the american bit is where people started standing up and chanting USA.
>>
>>6601736
Even one person clapping at someone being out and proud at the RNC is a step in the right direction. We should be celebrating this

>Male prostitutes contacted by The Post said business is booming and Republican National Convention attendees — most of them married — are clamoring for their services.

>“Most of them were first-timers. You could tell they were nervous, but once they became more comfortable, they seemed to be having a good time.”

And some people say gays should continue to repress themselves.

He's a billionaire that opposes gay marriage, democracy, women's right to vote, thinks he's going to beat death, and thinks we need a surveillance state

This crackpot is no different from the illogical populace of the RNC

I mean, death kinda sucks, if I was a billionaire I'd be working on that as well.
