OSC: Tolerate My Intolerance OMG!
"Orson Scott Card Wants Your 'Tolerance' for His Anti-Gay Views."

ETA: On a similar note, here's a column from ThinkProgress: "An Ethical Guide to Consuming Content Created by Awful People Like Orson Scott Card."

He wants everyone to be exactly like him. And when people say, "no, we don't want to be exactly like you," he does not react well.

(I don't think every homophobe is in the closet. Orson Scott Card, however...)

There's one very specific subset of heterosexual-supremacists that I do tend to suspect may be closeted and self-loathing; the type that present heterosexuality as a noble sacrifice in which people refrain from engaging in same-sex relationships (which are obviously more satisfying) out of an altruistic desire to perpetuate the species and maintain social order. Because none of the actual heterosexuals I know experience their orientation as a sacrifice. And OSC is probably the most blatant user of the "noble sacrifice" explanation.

I find those guys hilarious. If homosexuality was 100% accepted I'd be out banging all the chicks instead looking for the d, dontcha know?

It's not just you. Dude's got blatant issues. I would pity him if he weren't so massively toxic.

Yeah, I've come to hate the whole "homophobes are just closeted" argument, but when you're talking about being gay like it's the default but everyone pretends it's not, and clearly gay sex is the best thing because men know what men like, it's hard not to think that.
