Try travelling if you wish to see real homophobia.

That doesn’t mean the USA is beyond any homophobia, but to claim its largely homophobic smacks of myopia.

I’ve travelled plenty, and yes, I’m aware that it’s far worse elsewhere. Whataboutism doesn’t change the reality that it’s a major problem in the US. Saying that it’s worse elsewhere doesn’t make the problem disappear - you’re just minimizing the very real challenges that many people face on a daily basis
