So, you think that the word homophobia is meant to shut down debate (even when gays are beaten up)? Well, I think socialist is a word conservatives use to shut down debate (no seriously, I do think that).

Yes, here, homophobia is meant to shut down debate. It is over-applied to anyone who dares stand up against The Ghey.... prove me wrong. Socialist is not a made up term AND it depends on where you stand on socialism as to how the debate takes place, now doesn't it?

Example please, of someone "standing up" against an unreasonable demand.

You purposely ignored the points that noonwitch made in favor of saying the same stuff over and over again. Saying the same stuff over and over again and ignoring the points one makes is not debating. That's shutting down debate.

Socialism is not a made up term. It's a term describing a certain economic philosophy and it's a term that's been around for decades if not longer. Calling someone a socialist while pointing out that said person's economic ideals are socialistic is not a term "used to shut down debate". Quite the contrary. Conservatives actually use the term socialism(or communism) to further the debate. For example, take Obamacare(seriously, please take it). Obamacare is a socialistic ideal. It is designed to take money earned by one group and it's distributed to those it deems are in need. That is socialism in a nutshell. To imply that someone is a socialist and you're able to back it up is not there to stifle debate but to broaden it. However, terms such as homophobia, racist, misogynist, war on women, etc are designed to stifle debate by branding someone as a closed minded backward thinking individual. For example, if I were to debate a progressive on abortion and declare that I'm pro life, I will be quickly labeled a misogynist and someone who is against a woman's right to choose. The issue that I believe the life of a child to be sacred won't ever come into the conversation or the merits of allowing a child a chance to live. That is the difference.

Oh, and I'm still waiting for those rights that I get that gays don't.

I agree. The goal isn't necessarily to change her mind. It's to change the mind of other lurkers (all of which are not posting).

Calling names doesn't help a cause. You (Nova) know how some people say stuff like "Stuff like that give Christians a bad name?" Honestly, the same logic applies to liberal ideas. When liberals call conservatives names, it turns off those who might be middle of the road or undecided.

All Nova cares about is his gay agenda.

All Nova cares about is his gay agenda.

At his age I'm not sure why he cares, he can't be doing it for the next generation because he can't produce another generation, it all seems rather queer.
