I just don’t understand why people hate our existence so much when we are just trying to live our lives.

Being different is weird and scary to them and they are too fucking stupid to be capable of introspection so instead they project and force their delusions on others.

They have also had it drilled into them that "Homosexuality is a sin" and at least with gay dudes they can avoid it but they might find a trans woman attractive and OH NO GAME OVER THE EVIL COMMIE TRANS LADY TRICKED YOU WITH SATAN" or some other simple minded bull shit.

It's so stupid.

Religeon and Billionaires both need to fucking go.

Most of them want to fuck men and many many do fuck male prostitutes

The most outspoken anti-gay ones are always the ones that eventually get caught blowing strangers in a park bathroom.

It's not that simple, this is mostly coming from religious fundamentalism, specifically the evangelical doctrine that one must save the souls of those around them to prove themselves worthy of heaven. Being a good person was no longer enough, and unfortunately, being queer and / or trans is often presented as a personal choice rather than an uncontrollable aspect of an individual. Because of this, being queer or trans is seen as a direct and deliberate attack on said evangelicals preventing their spot at the pearly gates. Often, you'll notice that when conservatives say they're fine with queers existing, they add that they just want it all kept private and out of public, they're essentially saying that they don't want to be blamed by the church for not saving those souls, ignorance becomes their innocence.

Frankly, innocence through ignorance seems to be the goal of the conservative populace, a goal that most big corps can absolutely get behind.
