a 2x2 grid describing different types of homophobes:

Knows and Doesn’t care: “[There is no record of this comment]”

Knows and Cares: “Gay people make me uncomfortable and I should work on that”

Doesn’t know and Doesn’t care: “HOW IS THAT HOMOPHOBIC?!”

Doesn’t know and Cares: “That’s homophobic? I’m sorry, I’ll do better next time!”

Was talking about homophobia with someone yesterday and saw this chart in my mind and I thought u guys would like it :3 I know this applies to many things outside of sexuality/gender/etc and even outside of hate so maybe I should have made it more general :p But whatevs, feel free to edit and repost, it’s just lines and text X3

    “how is that homophobic?” Doesn’t mean that someone doesn’t care. Depending on inflection it could be an expression of incredulity because they just don’t understand.

    What would be better in the bottom left would be

    scoffs That’s not homophobic.
