    Ah, the classic conservative UNO reverse play when a conservative gets busted for a behavior they do in the shadows while spending the rest of their time making life hell for anyone who lives that lifestyle in public. “I’m not a hypocrite, I’m a victim of persecution for my lifestyle and you’re the hypocrite because libs are supposed to accept me!” It attempts to thwart the opposition by turning it on itself arguing over whether it’s proper to criticize, when at the end of the day the Christian ruling class is still in a position to dictate morality to the masses while engaging in whatever they want and demanding to not be confronted about the hypocrisy. You don’t get to enjoy the protection and support of people you’ve helped persecute just because we found out you enjoy the same lifestyle without atonement for everything you’ve done. They don’t want to join anyway, they want to go back to their double standard of none for us and whatever for them while they pretend like they’ve got the moral high ground.
