    The power to reshape reality isn’t science fiction, it exists right now. And right now it’s being used by the bourgeois. You don’t need to tell us it’s dangerous and it could be used for evil, we already know. All of us have suffered because of it. This power exists, and it is being used. It will always be used by some group or another, there’s no possible future in which nobody has the power to control reality. The only choice is whether the proletariat pretend it cannot be controlled, and leave it in the hands of the bourgeois, or whether we all recognise and use our collective power to throw off oppression and create an anarchist future.

    Workers of the world, unite! We have nothing to lose but our chains!

    Oh yeah statistically it’s gotta be that some homophobes are queer. Queer people are 10% of the population, and homophobes are even higher. Two groups that large, there’s got to be crossover. Historically, it would have been even moreso the case.

    I’m just unconvinced that queer people are the majority of homophobes because that makes no sense, and I’m unconvinced that the study randomly found mostly bi homophobes. The sheer prevalence of the gay homophobe trope is out of proportion with the conditions that would have been capable of creating homophobia in society in the first place and sustaining it.

    For one thing, the study asked the men to rate themselves on the Kinsey scale. Those men fully believed they had never felt attraction to another man. And only 20% of the homophobes showed no penile reaction. Meanwhile, 66% of the gay-accepting men had no reaction.
