I notice this paradox with reddit. They are obsessed with LGBT+ and will parrot off the usual liberal line of being cool with the lifestyle and not seeing it as a big deal.
However, if you ever make claim of their favorite fictional character being reinvented as a gay person (e. g. Superman) or even hint that their favorite character is bi, your post will get downvoted so fast.
So obviously, redditors see being gay as uncool in secret or they would not be such a negative reaction towards their favorite character adhering to that lifestyle.
