      Imagine being a gay Republican, in a gay Republican organization, in 2022. I can't. It's too far. I can't stretch my mind like that.

        I felt that way when I first discovered them in 2004. The GOP was specifically going around the county and getting anti-marriage equality legislation going in several states to boost GOP voter turnout.

          lmao, it existed back then? I thought it was a more recent grift; the absolute idiocy to try and rationalize that they were fine with gay people in the early-mid 2000's when they were explicitly trying to ban them everywhere

            Apparently it was founded in 1977 which means they existed throughout Reagan's handling of the AIDS crisis.
