Keep in mind they’re sophists so it has to be a well-structured logical argument. I don’t know why I keep arguing with these kinds of people. Disclaimer: I’m pro-LGBT.

I’d be willing to bet that that the person making that argument was not properly wearing fitted N95 masks for the duration of the pandemic…and during the 2023/4 flu season…
I totally should have called out that hypocrisy. You’re right, they are anti-vax and didn’t care about spreading COVID, and yet they used whatever argument they could think of against homosexuality including “spreading disease”. Why are those kinds of people so predictable? Like not to be offensive, but why are the kinds of people who are homophobic so often also anti-vax, anti-vegan, and misogynistic Christian conservatives? I didn’t even mention it but people in the comments predicted it accurately. It really is a type of person.
The one thing they didn’t demonstrate was racism, for what it’s worth. I feel like racism is so uncool these days that even these types don’t go there usually.
I think it’s the kind of person who has everything “figured out”.
They “figured out” how the world works at 16, and just called it a day on building up their understanding of the world any further. Anything that doesn’t fit into their worldview is discarded, and anything that contradicts it is evil/bad/lies/whatever.
But as for this person, they’re worse than a gay man (in their own warped definition of morality). Because anal sex spreading disease happens between CONSENTING adults. But spreading covid happens to UNconsenting victims.
I would be pleasantly surprised if this would change their mind. But at the least, it should embarrass them! (Probably won’t, but it should)
