A time when people had to pretend, had to blend in, had to conform & try as best they could to fit into a mould which simply wasn't them.
Humans tend to sometimes, as Hunni says,  latch onto difference & (some of us) attack because of that difference - look around & you can see that everywhere, especially on social media these days.

There are some twisted souls who enjoy baiting, trolling or targeting other people on various social media - anyone slightly different in however small a way can become a target.  And over centuries, gay people have been a target for those of a sadistic turn.

Like most of us I've known several gay people (both in RL & on social media)  over the course of a lifetime & can remember the days when gay people had to hide who they were. Thankfully, those primitive days are gone, thanks to the bravery of gay people themselves having the courage to stand up & tell the world that enough of that particular brand of bullshit was enough & they were no long prepared to hide in corners. They were coming out, & so they did.

And good for them, long may they continue to to not hide, to not be ashamed of who they are.
And I'm almost old enough to remember when certain Govts culled people like me.....
Human beings can be vile creatures
This world would be a perfect place if it wasn't for the people.
