I once stood next to a gay couple having a blowjob. A few seconds later I got blown aswell from one of them. Imagine my surprise as I'm not gay, I swear, I just happened to be there
Ok, here's something resembling an actual source: lawandcrime.com/crime/kicked-his-a-pretty-good-man-clobbers-drunk-roommate-asking-him-for-cigarettes-to-death-with-box-fan-and-stomps-to-his-face-cops-say/
The guy didn't kill the other one because one was a smoker and the other one wasn't.
Instead, both were smokers and one asked the other for cigarettes, which is what caused a fight and caused one to kill the other.
Thus: nobody here was killed "for smoking", as the comment you replied to put it.
So how does that relate to violence between gay and non-gay people?
With the same kind of reasoning you could say "The guy was beaten to death for being 65 years old, because if he was 2 years old, he wouldn't have been room mates with that guy, and then he wouldn't have asked for a cigarette, and then there wouldn't have been a fight over that, and then he wouldn't have been beaten to death".
If you say "He was beaten to death for smoking", then smoking would have to be the main (if not only) reason for that guy to have been beaten to death. Which was clearly not the case.
I feel sorry for OP because years of social media conditioned people to react instead of think. You used trigger words here, it turns brains off, the moment you said gay this was all people could think about, while the post isn't about gay people, but about social acceptance.

Except smoking absolutely harms your health & others (second & third hand smokers). Plus one chooses to smoke. One do not choose to be gay.

It’s a direct quote from Fran Lebowitz that I heard today on NPR while I was showering.

So it's not even your point.
Here's a quote I like: "Who's the more foolish? The fool, or the fool who follows him?"

Yeah finally someone saying it. All these passive gays and second hand gay activity that nobody consented to, so rude.

How is a straight guy getting a gay blowjob like walking a tightrope?
They're both extremely thrilling, just don't look down.

And you’re saying if the smoker wasn’t a smoker they wouldn’t have asked for cigarettes so they wouldn’t have been killed.
squaresinger@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 74d
That's such a weak chain of reasoning.
With the same kind of reasoning you could say "The guy was beaten to death for being 65 years old, because if he was 2 years old, he wouldn't have been room mates with that guy, and then he wouldn't have asked for a cigarette, and then there wouldn't have been a fight over that, and then he wouldn't have been beaten to death".

I guess the main thing is it isn't a 1:1 comparison it's more of the way society generally views each group.

You are the sort of person that needs to practice taking the L. At some point, trying desperately to be right just looks.... sad.

The guy was beaten to death by a smoker for asking that smoker for a cigarette.
Actually smoking wasn't involved in the murder.
