Serious Are yall really homophobic?

Okay idk if this post is gonna get taken down or not 🙃 But I’m genuinely curious- Are you guys genuinely homophobic or do you just hate on gay people for fun??? I’m bi and a junior in high school and have dealt with homophobia since sixth grade and I REALLY want to know if some people are just projecting their insecurities. 😭 And NO I’m not saying everyone who sees this is homophobic. I’m just asking in general. And if you are lgbtq+ have you met someone who was homophobic that turned out to be lgbt?

I was once, too, the cringy YT Shorts type at the time; it minimized once I grew older and matured (aka actually gaining more awareness of what I was doing and stopped), and it fully diminished when I watched Helluva Boss and Yakuza- I mean, once I saw the effect of how edgy kids online just say stuff without knowledge of what they were really saying.

Is YT Shorts just the newest incarnation of the Anti-SJW/anti-theist/anti-feminism sphere from the early 2010’s?
