Oh Wikipedia is a scholarly source these days? Sorry, when a group thinks simply disagreeing is "hate speech" I no longer take anything they present seriously. Like a Wikipedia article stating hate crimes exist as a response to questioning the statement that conservatives want gays dead. Cmon people the brain is a muscles and yall are experiencing atrophy.

Wikipedia itself? No.

The 299 citations in the Wikipedia link from u/LordAppleton ?

Absolutely!

At no point did anyone make that argument. Try again.

Not an article, a link that chronicles a very well documented history, again, with hundreds of cited sources.

Well I disagree with people in this thread and it's being treated like bigotry. So yall are proving the point. Also pointing out that hate crimes happen doesn't make the statement that conservatives want gays dead any less stupid or somehow factual. You know jaimacans are pretty well know for their disapproval of the gay community. You think they largely vote republican in this country? Muslims also famously oppose this community. You think Muslim Americans are mostly voting republican? But the spooky white conservative wants you dead? Nope... just sick of hearing the constant grievance stack.

A lot of Muslims do vote Republican. My mom and I are pretty much the only people in our Pakistani family that aren't conservative. Both of my mom's siblings are actually pretty supportive of Trump even. There would actually be way more PoC voting Republican if the party's racism wasn't so blatant.
