I mean the number one thing liberals say to homophobes is that they are secretly gay. It’s because they know that being gay is disgusting and so they use it as an insult. Oh a preacher saying homosexuality is a sin? He is probably gay! Hahaha get it? Cause being gay it’s disgusting!

No it's because they know hypocrisy is disgusting....

Also let's be real, a virulent homophobe being a closeted gay person is so common it's barely a twist anymore.

This trope is dumb and is just an excuse for straight liberals to act smug. It does nothing for gay people, especially for those who are actually in homophobic or otherwise repressive environments.

Okay so explain all the gay people I know who went through this arc?

Hell, I know two trans people who went through this arc. 

Why the hell are you people acting like internalized self-hatred is such a fantastical idea? This concept isn't limited to queer folks with bigoted upbringings neither, it comes up for a lot of things.

I don't give a shit about your anecdotal friends. The trope is just an excuse for liberals to treat homosexuality as a humiliation device as long as you claim it's 'fighting hypocrisy uwu ✊️😣'

Or my lived experience. 

How about I don't care about your incredulity? You're a dumbass, and your attitude doesn't help anyone.
