    Sharing a sexuality doesn’t associate you with him any more than sharing a hair color or preference of fabric softener

      But that’s the thing, I’m not sharing a sexuality with him. Someone made him look like a gay stereotype because he hates people like me.

      And the whole point is the picture IS to associate him with the LGBT+ community, in an ironic way, to piss him off.

      If he made being blonde illegal and threw blondes in jail, that would be a fair analogy. But he didn’t, so that’s a terrible analogy. I mean, there are people that discriminate based on appearance and they’re called racists. So if this was a picture of Trump but photoshopped to look stereotypically Chinese, maybe that would be more of an equivalent analogy
