Student Govt. at Texas State Says ‘Coming Out as Conservative’ Event is Homophobic

Student Govt. at Texas State Says ‘Coming Out as Conservative’ Event is Homophobic

“affected […] students in an offensive manner.”

It’s not uncommon for people who are gay and conservative to say that it was easier for them to come out as gay than conservative.

The College Fix reports:

Texas State U. student government labels ‘come out as conservative’ event ‘homophobic’

The Texas State University Student Government recently issued a resolution calling a “coming out as conservative” (on a liberal campus) event “homophobic.”

The Texas State chapter of Young Conservatives of Texas held the event on October 8 which featured a metaphorical closet through which conservative students could walk and “reveal” their politics.

This did not sit well with, among others, Student Senator Colton Halter who labeled the YCT’s idea “homophobic” during Student Government’s order of the day, according to The University Star. Student Government President Corey Benbow added that the YCT “affected […] students in an offensive manner.”

The resolution “disapproves of the student organization for violating the shared values of Texas State and expression of homophobia and bias.”

“The Texas State University Student Government recently issued a resolution calling a “coming out as conservative” (on a liberal campus) event “homophobic.”

I think, therefore I am.

I’m conservative, so they tell me that I’m “homophobic.”

I’m OK with that.

Keep bringing on the slurs — when I look at who’s slinging them, it reassures me that I’m on the right track.

    It all about the Feelz…
    I think, therefore I am homophobic.
    Even though Trump’s ambassador to Germany and adviser Peter Theil are openly gay…
    Where’s Milo when you need him?

    The divide is not left and right, it is between feelings even when reality contradicts v.s. reason and evidence.

    Logos v.s. Anti-Logos.

    That is why Christans, Jews, Atheists, Traditionalists, LGBTQ on either side can’t communicate with each other.

    The anti-logos constantly needs affirmation of their illusions to keep feeling good and must ban dissent. The logos side is tolerant – because we all are willing to talk and discover or agree to disagree but never in a disagreeable way.

    Anyone who wishes to use force to abridge speech is on the Anti-Logox side, be it LGBTQ+obia or BDS.

You mean people actually send their children to San Marcos? Who knew?

Anyway, call me homophobic, racist, whatever other “ist”. Just don’t call me late for supper.

It would be helpful if these “college educated” persons
learned the meanings of words. ” homophobic” sounds
impressive, but it only means “afraid of homosexuals”.
These “students only see what they want to see. As they
are conditioned to do by their “professors”.

The willful ignorance of these people is astounding. They really are deranged.
