Stupid Gay Propaganda

‘Given today’s high rate of violence against gays, and given that Roy Moore — then an Alabama state judge, and still today one of the most popular political figures in Alabama — wrote a judicial opinion urging the use of “the power of the sword,” up to and including “confinement and even execution,” against gays, the notion that gays face no threat in the current political climate strikes me as bizarre.’

Well, moreover, the society pictured in V is England under an openly fascist regime. Whatever Huebert thinks about the condition of gay men and lesbians today, historical fascist regimes have historically done things like, well, sending gay men and lesbians off to concentration camps, it seems pretty tin-eared to complain when V for Vendetta has its fictional fascist regime do the same thing.
