The Spin

Left narrative

Let's not forget that the greatest threat to LGBTQ+ Americans resides right here at home. The GOP and their allies have fomented hatred and violence against the LGBTQ+ community with their baseless "grooming" smear, which has led to hate crimes and puts them at risk. We must stand up against hate here at home first.

ABC news

Right narrative

The left-wing hysteria over discrimination is put into focus when we realize that the US is one of the safest places in the world to be LGBTQ+. While the world is full of malicious foreign actors who hate the freedoms LGBTQ+ Americans enjoy, the left has instead whipped up a baseless persecution narrative — especially in an election year.
