      Well I’m gay, so I probably wouldn’t be homophobic intentionally. I must not know I’m being homophobic. Can you explain it?

        You’re accusing someone of being gay for not sharing your own preferences then hiding behind being gay.

        Straight up homophobia.

          I’m accusing a misgynist incel of being gay. I would think no less of him for being gay, but he would. There is homophobia in what I’m saying, but it’s his. I’m borrowing his homophobia to fuck with him.

              Yes, it’s his. You’re noticing me using his homophobia. None of it is coming from me, I’m just speaking in his language and letting him draw his own conclusions about the subjective value of what I assert
