The point is that it's an extremely negative label.

Besides Justin Thomas,
[quote] PGA Tour veteran Scott Piercy lost two major sponsors 10 months ago as a result of controversial posts he shared on Instagram. One was a homophobic meme of former Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg and the other referenced QAnon, an ultra-conservative conspiracy theory about a secret plot against President Donald Trump.
[quote] At the WGC-HSBC event in China in 2014, Patrick Reed, after a three-putt, was heard on camera dropping the F-word twice as well as a homophobic slur.

Completely off the mark and yet again blaming gay men for anything that happens to them.
He said it because he associates being shitty at something with gay men. To him, gay men are useless. It has nothing to do with being attracted to men. It has everything to do with people associating the worst qualities that any human can have with being gay.

But seriously, I wonder what would have happened if he hadn’t run from it. What if he didn’t act like he had just shot Jesus but admitted it was a common thing to say for guys like him. That he knows it is wrong, is working on it and is sorry that (not if) he offended people.

To me, that’s just redolent of China’s “re-education programs” in Xinjiang or of the centuries-long project of the Catholic Church to make people “virtuous” according to their definition of the term. It’s exactly why a good number of left-leaning people like myself have had issues with the more “progressive” wing of my chosen political camp.
And in any case, judging from his background, I don’t think any such program would work on him. He’s a bible-thumper from KY. What do you expect from trash like that? He should feel free to remain the “faggot”-spewing, uncouth, sanctimonious, hateful breeder that he is.
