I have issues with the sort of conflation of racism and homophobia going on today, especially given the willingness of many to ignore the racism in the parts of the movement that tend to get attention.

I haven’t seen racism and homophobia conflated, how do you mean?

I have seen racists lose, and homophobes lose, and that venn diagram happens to have a large area of overlap where racist homophobes lost very hard, and those who consider themselves agains all sorts of prejudice have had a double win.
