Be Happy, Be Gay, But Don't Lie: As the Commandments Say

Lindsey Graham gets asked “why don't you just admit you're gay, and then people won't blackmail you anymore?" and I love it! No, I am most definitely not shaming anyone's sexuality AT ALL. There's some layers to unpack here for us all.
First, as far as Lindsey Graham goes, notice that he doesn't deny the accusations that:
1- he is closeted gay
2 - he's being blackmailed
To be fair, he doesn't acknowledge the accusations at all, which isn't abnormal for politicians to do. He did hear the accusa-question though, for sure.
He could've said "no!" or "ridiculous!" or "ha!" or something if he wanted to, without slowing down at all. Just sayin. He didn't. He SHOULD HAVE.
The reason I think he SHOULD have offered some sort of denial of the accusations is because of this:
he has been accused as it relates to the Epstein web, and, as far as I am aware, those accusations have not been disproven or even investigated to date. He ignored the question because he doesn't want for anyone to become more aware of the accusations against him.
People should be more aware. Graham is implicated by Sascha Riley. You can find more on those accusations here:
So, my point is, while at face value it may sound like the person shouting the accusa-questions at Graham is just ribbing him for his "bearing and demeanor," in a way, so to speak, that's not actually all he's doing.
We as a public SHOULD have concern that Graham is compromised like many in the GOPedo party seem to be... and seem to be operating at the behest of forces other than the folks who elected them's will - such as, Israel, in Graham's case, which he has made no secret about.
The "secret" part for him may be that: not only is Graham so "Israel first" (his words, real quote) because of AIPAC money, but maybe also because they have dirt on him from trumpstein island.
The last layer I wanna unpack is the "gay" part of the accusation-question, which I'm gonna do via two sets of observation and a conclusion.
First point I have is personal observation of mine.
(Disclaimer: My observation here is informed by having lived and visited all across the south in America throughout my life. There's parts of the U.S. I haven't been to - like the Dakotas or New England. But there's not a single state across the American south I haven't lived in or spent time in beyond just "in passing" in my life at some point or another. Now I live in wine country north of San Francisco.)
In America (maybe globally) there's a certain stereotype of the "gay man" ... think the "flaming gay" man, I suppose, and concepts like "gaydar" that are mostly normalized (for better or worse) in our culture.
Now, Lindsey (love the 🌈 androgenous 🌈name btw ) reps South Carolina and the "conservative" party where being gay is frowned upon by "his people," so to speak.
Yet, he does, by some measures of the normalized stereotypical "gaydar" standard, come off as seeming "kinda gay, maybe" to some people (like the "non-elite" southern conservatives who are typically more anti gay than the elites in his constituency), which IS also why he got asked the question - as rage bait.
Well, maybe he is, maybe he isn't.
But here's my observation: The southern accent in America varies across the region. The mannerisms and speech of some southern men can sound "kinda gay" at times but the accent can also hide or even "take blame" for "sounding gay" in how it "allows" closeted gays to fit in so long as they stay closeted and no one acknowledges what's what within southern conservative culture.
Here's why. Among most of the South, folks recognize and overall do accept that LGBTQ people are "allowed to exist" at least - and even celebrate Pride in the larger cities for sure think Savannah, South Florida, et al. - so there are many flaming gay dudes who totally uphold the stereotype unabashedly (more power to them too! ✊). Southern people aren't confused by the gay accent and the southern drawl.
But there is another group of sorts in the South that often "sounds gay" even though they are not generally the Proud openly gay men "types"... and that's mostly among the "high society" "elite" Southerners.
Southern gay men know exactly what I'm talking about. It's this: there's a lot of closeted gay men in the south among the "elites". The culture of the elites allows these men to participate by helping them to mask their "gay dialect" behind a "southern elite" dialect. And on the whole their elite subculture knows that its gay members will betray their own gayness (where it exists) to aid the goals of the group, which may include anti gay goals.
There is very much a such thing as self hating gays and in the South that is very real.
To go maybe a step too far with this observation I gotta admit that looking at the "left" and the "right" both sides have a sect of elites that accept gayness tacitly, but don't celebrate it and don't talk about it...
...they are kinda the same in a way, albeit working towards different goals.
The sameness between these two groups of elites is that they are also the ones who can be coldest and most uncaring about the outcomes of their elite groups upon the plight of others whether gay straight or whatever. Their bond as indifferent elites is also indifferent to each other's sexuality. That's how these kinds of sociopathic types can align in some ways, which otherwise shouldn't (or wouldn't).
This is why Thiel, for example, is able to get along with the Grahams (maybe?) and his ilk. There's a larger discussion to be had there but no need to digress here anymore.
My second observation is this, and it's actually just a fact I wanna share with any "anti gay" "christian" maga / right wing folks:
The ten commandments - the MOST IMPORTANT LAWS - to any purported christian (and also jewish people, right?) tell us that, above all, among other things, WE SHOULDN'T LIE, CHEAT, STEAL, MURDER, nor COVET.
You know what it doesn't mention as an important issue? Playing swords and/or scissors. Understand? 🌈
Being a lying, cheating, murderous (GOP killing Iranian school kids for example) blood thirsty politician is/are SINS which violate the 10 Commandments, whereas being LGBTQ does not.
COVETING THE RIGHTS OF LGBTQ PEOPLE IS ALSO A SIN AGAINST THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.
Think on that.
If Lindsey is gay he should stop lying. Lying is the issue, not being gay. In any case, he should stop helping Israel. We should further investigate the accusations by Sascha Riley against Graham and others. That's my conclusion.
IMPEACH THE WHOLE GOP.
