Are all right wingers homophobic? I used to think that bigots called themselves conservative because it sounds nicer.
The question arises in the interest of precise thinking. When somebody yearns for the 1950's I have assumed they want to go back to pre-Stonewall fag-bashing. This is frequently incorrect.
Because conservatives give political cover to bigots they don't deserve much sympathy. But it's good to know the sheep from the goats.
Is there a way to tell who is a true conservative and who is merely a bigot?
