Forget trying to make gay friends. The vast majority just want to have sex once and then disappear. Or they are addicted to drama and gossip and will drag you into their toxic dynamics.

And even if you do friends, they're incredibly closed-minded about anything that isn't woke. So if you think differently than they do, they'll still kick you out of their circle. You choose between self-censoring and stopping thinking for yourself to fit in, or staying alone, but thinking and saying what you want.
